Weekend Clarkbot
Here is the weekend Clarkbot, courtesy of Feedster. First, here are two bloggers who are interested in Clark and may support him. Stop by and put in a good word for the General. True leadership, not charisma or glitz From:…

This is the tragedy of nonprofessional candidates, methinks: the concept that everything – /everything/ – that they have ever said, wrote or even nodded approvingly at can and will be used against them is one that they never really *get* until it rises up and bites them on the ass.

Bear in mind that Clark was specifically referring the the Afghanistan military campaign, which of course WAS a resounding success (as if anyone thought it would go otherwise. The aftermath remains a different story). He’s a career military man, so a certain amount of cheerleading is to be expected. He comes from a culture that respects military authority, regardless of party affiliation. As a candidate opposing the current C-in-C, he’s free to be more openly critical, which he certainly has been.
While undoubtedly intended as a knock on Clark, I don’t see the information in this post as damning in the least.

Clark’s not the frontrunner; he is currently in a solid second place, vying with Gephardt.
