2. When I first read that here on DU I was shocked.
I have a hard time believing That Clinton would endorse Kerry. If he did I have lost all respect for the man.

4. Both Clintons have said repeatedly
they would not endorse anyone until the primaries are over. It wouldn't make sense to do anything else.

3. Wolf is talking about it again in a few minutes.
"I" heard him say something like Clinton "praised" the job Kerry has done. I want to hear it again before I give my "theory" on this.

It's coming up....tune in!

6. That's no official endorsement
Clinton has praised all of our candidates at one time or another.

8. Clinton did not endorse Kerry.
Just got home here and I heard that clip of Clinton on NPR regarding Kerry on me way home.

He said something like "I agreed with him on many positions like environment....etc).

It was hardly an "endorsement".

9. Never heard that one.
I sense he'd endorse Clark if he could. But Clinton has decided to wait until after the nomination.

13. Clinton was great.
Edited on Thu Jan-29-04 06:08 PM by copithorne
He said he Kerry that had stood with him on fiscal responsibility and that he was good on national security.

Then he said, "So I don't think it's true, what people say, that he's unelectable and too liberal."

Which I thought was as close as Bill Clinton can get to spinning some criticism of Kerry. Maybe I'm reading too much into it. I agree with Clinton's judgment, which he repeated, that he should stay out of it much as I feel he supports Wesley Clark.

Clark has to win this thing on his own.

11. There was a bogus claim made that he did; the mods locked it.
Just want to underscore, it's *not* true.

Clinton has not endorsed anyone.

12. But he will
Clark won't be able to stop Kerry after we get to the real primaries: California, New York, Illinois etc.
