Reply #53: This election is about getting rid of Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Asscroft etc [View All]

...Whoever Kerry chooses, I support (and that would include Zell or Joe - even though I'd feel like needing a shower after voting), but for me the reality is that this current administration is destroying our country and constitution. Therefore, I support the Kerry "Team" no matter what. With that said, I was a Deaniac, and then Edwards and Clark were always my 2nd, 3rd choice for President (liked Kucinich too) and Kerry was not really on my radar. But, I will vote for Kerry and whoever he chooses as a running mate. With that said, I will say that there are some very good reasons for supporting a "Kerry/Clark" ticket. While I think Edwards did well in the polls in states like NC/SC, Wes Clark didn't do so bad....his biggest disadvantage was not having the money to spend like Edwards. I think that Edwards might get the "Babe" Vote because of his boy next door youthful looks (hey, I'm sorry, but I've seen the polls) and that Clark would get a very important sector of the vote - the moderate dems and moderate Republicans....

I also think that Clark v. Cheney or Clark v.McCain debates would carry more weight in the mind of all the "undecideds" who are concerned with Terrorism and the war in Iraq....More so than the Edwards v. Cheney or Edwards v. McCain debates on the same topics...
