The Flip Side: Why Wouldn't Democrats Think About Running Clark?
It's the other side of the question.

1. Let him declare he's running, and I'll think about it.
Until then, :boring:.

2. Fair enough
But is it too ridiculous to think there's something special about a guy if he's generating this much talk among certain people when he's not even a candidate?

3. It makes me wonder about the people
in whom he's generating this much talk.

4. What do you mean?
Are you questioning the motives of people behind Clark, wondering if they really stand for Democratic values or are just interested in beating Bush?

5. The real party people
want someone with political experience in elective office. It is a different animal than any other CEO job, and it is one of the reasons the Eisenhower was so crappy at the job, and why Bush is so bad at it. Although by comparison Eisenhower was a human relations genius. It's not a dictator job, like general or CEO.

6. Clark isn't committed to a party affiliation
He needs to quit riding the fence and declare his candicacy. If he is that indecisive, then I wouldn't be interested in supporting him.

7. Obsess much?
How hard can it be to put together those taking points?
