of standing up for ideals vs. being a realist, which never seems to get very far.

Maddy, I'm not going to call you naive and I'm not going to accuse you of believing you'd "rather lose". But I will say this--the "crossover" thing works both ways. Perhaps FOX is thinking that by having Clark on their channel they may get a lot of conservative Democrats to turn on FOX. They are, at least to a certain extent, paying Clark for his credibility with Democrats, and you can either believe that FOX has somehow developed an open mind for anti-administration points of view, or they will spin whatever he has to say for their own purposes.

I don't fault Clark for wanting to make a living, but I do fault him for taking money from FOX. It's blood money, and no one with an ounce of self-respect should go near them.
