6. If we have a normal primary season, Clark is toast if he runs
He does not have the organization nor the money to win the primarys.

The only way Clark could win is if some hi-viz candidates drop ou and throw their support to Clark, or if there is a deadlock going into the convention, and Clark would be a compromise choice of the party movers and shakers...

....more and likely that wont happen as there will be delegate horsestrading going on between the camps (not sure how this would work as I dont think we've seen a deadlocked convention in a long time).

Another way for Clark to be credible if some there are some major campaign contributors and party activists/elected officials jump ship to endorse or work on Clarks primary campaign.

This whole Clark phenom is interesting, but its really a distraction, I think.
