1. Thanks, skipos. I was a Clark supporter at that point.

[TwilightZone]

2. I wish we could have seen a Clark/Bush debate on national security and/or foreign policy.

That would have been entertaining. Clark would have dissected Bush.

I also think that Clark would have made an incredible president. Sigh.

4. Yup.... *sigh*

:(

11. I like Clark, but all this hindsight talk isn't helping our cause

We put the best candidate we possibly could forward. I think any Democrat would have been swiftboated and up against the most protected administration and biased media in history.

Party support is going to be a big key this time. It's time to look forward, not look back.



JMHO.

3. Interesting

I was pulling for Kucinich with hopes of Dean for a second choice.

I wonder if anyone has the polls done right before as well...

edit: fond one!

5. I was for Gephardt last time

It seems like a lifetime ago.

[Rowdyboy]

6. I was likely one of the 219 Clark votes

[Miss Chybil]

8. Me too.

[Crunchy Frog]

7. Ah the memories.

All the massive accusations being leveled against Clarkies. Just so touching. Brings a tear to my eye just thinking about it.

9. The future was prettier

with a Clark presidency in it.

10. If I voted in that poll (don't recall) it would have been a vote for Clark.

My username was Clarkie1 back in the day...
