"The biggest question: Will any of her supporters (including Wes Clark, a strong Clinton supporter and fellow Arkansan) say publicly or privately she should quit?" In fact, we've heard that Clark did call Hillary tonight, telling her it's time to quit. Perhaps the general's most dangerous mission to date.read more | digg story
Wesley Clark "Responds"2008 Presidential almost-candidate and retired Army General Wesley Clark posted a video response to my video about him. Unfortunately, it wasn't quite what I had in mind.
Leslie called me yesterday as I was on my way to an official Wells Fargo Financial night of food and bowling, and told me that Four Star General Wesley Clark was coming to her work place today and speaking.
It was worth waking up at an ungodly hour to shake hands with a past and future Presidential Canidate. I had the laptop ready for a podcast then and there, but when you are with someone like that, I can’t just pull out a laptop and ask for an interview.
We also met the Commisioner for the State of Alabama, oh and Brian T. Murphy was there.

It would be entirely wrong to describe Wesley Clark as having been idle during 2006. He has travelled extensively, making appearances, campaigning, fund raising and generally doing good work for the party in an election year. But he has yet to be the focus of much media interest in his presidential ambitions for 2008. Perhaps that's because he was a bit of a disappointment in 2004 - he had plenty of promise but, through disorganisation and lack of forward thinking, entirely failed to deliver. "One thing he wants to do is avoid the mistake he made last time of jumping in when it was too late," Associated Press reported of Clark at the end of November. Ironically, unless he gets moving very soon, it's a mistake he may already be repeating.
