Reply #100: Dean's a fighter and that is why he'll be the Bush machine [View All]

Clark may be a general, but he hasn't a clue how to run a civilian political campaign. Kerry does, but he's compromised himself with his war vote and ignoring the anger and frustration of the Dem base against Bush and the Dem leaders for caving into Bush.

Dean does know how to run a campaign and considering where Dean came from -- obscurity -- to frontrunner or tied for frontrunner status in Iowa, NH, and California, he has demonstrated the energy and drive it will take to defeat the Bush-Rove Goliath. Clark has name recognition, but his campaigning skills and savvy are nonexistent.

And dreaming about a Clark-Bush, Kerry-Bush, Dean-Bush etc. debate is daydreaming. Rove will not let English-challenged Bush debate any of them, so the Democratic candidate who has boundless energy and drive on the campaign trail and the ability to inspire the grassroots will have the edge over Bush. Clark hasn't shown competence on the campaign trail and he's got a short learning curve.
