When will Dean and Clark
go on the attack again against Bush? I'm not criticizong them for being silent of late, I'm just eager for them to get going again. Or have I missed something?

1. Dean already is.
The media just isn't covering him much right now, except in their own little way. Check out this thread on what he is planning.

2. You've missed a lot.
General Clark has been and will continue to stump for Senator Kerry.

Clark is appearing at Dem fundraisers all over the country, and continually speaking out against Bush.

Expect to see him back on primetime cable news again very soon--right now,he is still on the trail stumping for Kerry.

5. The media
attention has been on the primary races. Now that this is done, I expect we will see more of the 'attack dogs' come out to help Kerry against the 'mean machine' republicans!

:-D

6. "Expect to see him back on prime time cable news again very soon"
Do you have some inside information or is that wishful thinking? I hope so. He'd make an excellent commentator.

7. Dean already is,
and Clark has been doing JFK promos - mostly positive stuff. They have the good cop/bad cop, or good general/bad doctor, act down pretty good.

Also, since the primary is now over, I expect there will be a media blackout on the Dems, so you'll have to look hard to find Dean & Clark, at least until CentralAir comes on.

8. Clark hasn't really stopped.
After his short vacation he was right back out stumping for Kerry in Georgia and I'm sure he wasn't flattering The Chimp. It would be nice if the media would mention it.

9. let them relax for a while
They're damned if they say much right now because people will just accuse them of trying to take the spotlight off of Kerry which is absurd. They're probably both spending good time with their family and planning what they're going to do next...criticizing Bush is fun and good, but it doesn't exactly put food on the table. When they're ready, I'm sure they'll speak up again.

10. Good point
Like, I said, I'm not dissing them, just eager for lines like the following from General Clark:

"You don't make policy by taunting the enemy. Only someone who hasn't seen war firsthand would ever say anything as fatuous as 'bring 'em
on.''

B-)

12. Wrong wrong wrong!
Wes was out on the Kerry campaign exactly two weeks after his withdrawal from the race. He hit three places in GA on Feb 25th, and was in California doing the same the next day. I think he's also been in Ohio and Florida, and he's scheduled for tomorrow in Kansas. (whoo hoo! I'm going)

And he's still attacking Bush, you can BET on it.
