4. Please kick when he's on.
I will become violently sick if I have to watch that scum Matthews any longer than it takes Wes to talk. I mean it. I'm watching C-SPAN and little else.

9. He did good...
I was very proud of him. Matthews kept at him to try to make him explain Kerry's vote and Matthews is all about how the Democrats are trying to hide the left and become moderates to the world. Clark didn't take the bait.

In fact, he fought right back at Matthews and at the end said that he would play hardball with Matthews. It was good, but he is totally behind Kerry/Edwards and included that Kerry is type of man who can lead this country.

Hopefully someone else can get the link or they might have a transcript up later.

8. God, he is annoying. I only kept
watching because Wes Clark was on. Does he EVER let anyone talk without constantly interrupting? He is so obnoxious!!

10. He was fantastic!.
Held his own with Chris who was really giving him a hard time and interrupting constantly and trying to drown him out....but Clark kept on talking over his head. At one point he insisted on talking and Chris finally gave up and let him talk. One of his best interviews! I think Chris was impressed. The crowd behind him applauded enthusiastically. Even though we weren't suppose to bash Bush...he did a good bit of bashing. Way to go Wes! Just hope someone posts a video.

11. The video is up. Here is the link:
http://www.us4clark.com/mediaclips.html

Click on the the upper right hand window option, titled: The General appears with Chris Matthews in a special Hardball show at the Democratic Convention. He was shining tonight!


He did literally roll over Mathews, all with an air of good humor. He also mad a great defense of Kerry.
