46. there's not much else to evaluate
So if Clark had fought WWIII, then Ike wouldn't be in Clark's league? I'll evaluate the man, not the war, before deciding who's in who's league.

since the Clark supporters love to trot out Ike as their example of how a politically inexperienced general can win, it is perfectly appropriate to compare their respective military accomplishments as a way of "evaluating" the men. there's not much else to evaluate in Clark, after all. Clark is a career military man whose "greatest" accomplishment was his conduct of the NATO forces in the Kosovo war. Ike was a career military man whose greatest was his conduct of allied forces in WWII. the scale of Ike's accomplishment is orders of magnitude greater than Clark's.
