General Clark Does a Disservice to NH!
Just when the voters of NH thought they had a clear choice with Kerry, zooooooooooooooooom, the General whips out the artillery and probably makes everyone rethink their choice again! Go Wesley!!

Even though Britt Exhume was awful, and tried to pick the fuzz out of Clark's navel with his picayune questioning, I think Clark was the best tonight. Edwards annoyed me with his "can I, can I, can I finish my thoughts here?" And Kerry must be tired, because he slipped back on to autopilot.

Dean was much more controlled, like the old Howard, pre-Iowa. No one was particularly stellar, but Clark handled everything they threw at him, and within the time limitations. Now it is up to the voters. I'll question some tomorrow.

1. have to admire the general for not taking the easy way out tonight
he couldve done it but he didn't because saying AWOL isn't a DESERTER would be a lie

2. If this country wants a candidate who can beat * and resurrect America
General Clark's our guy. No question about it.

4. I hope the voters of NH
think so.

I do with the Dems wouldn't choose Faux News to televise their debates. Geez, the creeps crawled out from uder their rocks tonight.

Actually, all the attacks on Clark may backfire. They make folks like Brit and Bill look mean spirited and nasty and petty as all get out.

5. The Moore question resonated big time.
It will be the only exchange remembered from this debate in a couple of days.

9. What about the CAPPS II thing?
He had just finished with dissing the Pate act, and then they served him up the Axciom shit. I'd call that sandbagging...in the classic sense.

6. I have to say
Dean did a good job given the hole out of which he had to dig himself.

I hate Fux. :puke:

7. He does get points for the time limitations.
I don't think I saw him put out more than 10 words after the bell rung. I'm just not sure how well that'll translate into votes.

8. Can someone explain briefly
What was the AWOL question and what did Clark say?

I missed the debates, and by the time I got home, DU is full of this event, but I can't figure out what happened.

Thanks.
