This is exactly what they wanted...
If we are going to beat this in the bush like we have so far why shouldn't everyone else. I am a Clark supporter and I will always believe in him, but we must do as Clark said and stand behing the nominee if we want to win this fight. Just sit back and wait to see what happens next. Polling over the issue and posting one right after another isn't going to do anything to our democratic souls but smother them.

I know this is a big issue but discussing it will only make matters worse.

3. Harping over it.
Conspiracy theory is what we are doing. This story has been out there in the Enquirer and The Globe, and we are just now picking up on it. We've discussed the what ifs, why, where, when how, and what nows. Why should we all continue to put more flavors in the soup? P.S. Mom Mr. Dinkins didn't get over his cold. :)

9. Oh yeah,
Remember all the wonderful things that came from the discussions of Whitewater, Paula Jones, and Monica Lewinsky? "Discussion" is always good! /sarcasm off.

2. I still haven't seen the answer yet.
Why would Clark endorse Kerry?

5. DemReformed has said it before
We all see what is happening now. More is coming. This is NOT the end, and if we want to win this battle we must all stand behind the nominee and fight. He got in the race to help us. He is now out of the race but still wants to help. He believes that this will help. He is just like the rest of us, he wants bush out. In order to succeed we must all work very hard TOGETHER. If we work against each other then we are fighting a losing battle.

7. Ah, Donkey
I knew you were fixing to be attacked over this. Many people do not agree, but that is their right.

10. Do you really think that is the reason for Clark
endorsing Kerry?

Your answer is the first one listed in the good follower handbook.

I am going to hold out, and wait to see if I ever hear the real reason.

I think the good General would have been truer to his platform and truer to his strong beliefs by not endorsing anyone until the primary season is over.

Clark was a candidate for the everyday American.

If the polls are right, then Kerry doens't need any endorsements right now.

It appears disengenuous on Clark's part.

4. "stand behind the nominee"--but Kerry is not yet the nominee
. . . and I don't like the idea that I must be a good little sheep and not even discuss anything.

He said he had a cold and probably wouldn't be over it by Friday and here I am. Looking in your messages mom.
