Just starting

1. Hi Nashyra.. I'm front and center with 2 VCRs fired up...

Here's hoping for some good news!

:toast:

[Kahuna]

2. F**K! An emergency broadcast test interrupted the poll results.

:grr:

[Nashyra]

3. Clear evidence of tightening race

against *

[bearfartinthewoods]

4. he polled within the margine of error of both Dean and Kerry

i am blown away......Dean has been a cover boy for weeks and Kerry a senator for years. and Clark isn't even declared. we are so screwed.

[Nashyra]

5. His blind bio polls at 50% against*

His blind bio rates high in the polls, as soon as name recognition kicks in I'm sure he will take off.

6. Screwed?

How do you mean?

[11cents]

7. Who's "we", kemo sabe

Many of the "we" here include people who want to see Bush beaten, think Clark may be the guy who can do it decisively, and have realistic rather than far left/ideological views of the US military and military professionals.

That said, I'd be very surprised if this poll is truly meaningful. But you certainly shouldn't be surprised if Dean shows up weaker in a poll of general Democratic voters than he is among Democratic activists. For most voters, the campaign hasn't really started.

8. Clark will make all candidates stronger. Either they beat a general

and prove their foreign policy credentials or Clark beats Political veterans and proves he can handle domestic issues. Either way the party is strengthened v Bush.

[Nashyra]

9. I totally agree

Whether he wins the nomination or not he will make the Dem candidate stronger because the candidate that wins will have to prove that they are strong on national defense and national security. Clark will be on Buchanan and Press at 6:00 pm EST. 3:00 for us west coast folks.

[Kahuna]

10. True that. Wise words, my friend...

:hi:

[TacticalPeek]

14. Surely this is too simple and reasonable to be true.

How 'bout a nice game of Balkan wars, instead?

[JustJoe]

11. Where can we see the bios used in the poll? n/t

[snyttri]

12. It should be posted at DraftWesleyClark.com soon

I don't see it there yet

15. You Busted Them All Right

It was his extended family that was polled


NOT -:)

[Kahuna]

13. 84% of dems polled said based upon the blind poll they would vote..

for Clark's bio. That means that only 16% probably would not vote for a general.
