86. "One appearance at a Dem press conference"?
You've GOT to be kidding. Do you really have no idea what's going on with the party's 2006 strategy?

Clark practically put together the panel that came up with that plan. Those are mostly HIS ideas, not Kerry's (not that they're all that different). But Clark's involvement in this from the ground up, not to mention working with Reid and Pelosi to get all the Congressional Dems unified behind it, is one of several reasons why Clark was chosen to deliver the plan in the Democratic radio address today.

And if you think "all" Clark has is military experience, you don't know anything about Clark either. Either that, or maybe you don't think much of negotiating peace treaties and allied policy, providing education (K thru college), healthcare, housing, environmental protection... well, the list goes on and on. All of it executive experience--doing, not talking.

I can't even fathom what you mean by "Clark didn't make it out of the primaries." Makes no sense at all.

Look, if you prefer Kerry to Clark, that's fine. But you don't make Kerry look any better by denigrating Clark's accomplishments and qualifications. I doubt Kerry would. He was present at the roll-out, and no doubt stands behind what the congressional leadership put forward.

It's time for us to be unified for 2006, not beginning the fight for 2008.
