If Wesley Clark is chosen, he will eat McCain’s lunch everyday until the election. Every damned day. And afterwards, he will be a tremendous asset to President Obama in foreign affairs. Don’t forget, Clark can’t be Secy of Defense, and the Democrats are very deep in Secy of State candidates. Clark is a legondary campaigner and fund-raiser: ask the vets if you don’t think so. Either way, my totally Un-Scientific Instant Recount Vote (IRV) ballot is still open for any and all who would like to weigh in!
