Poll question: "There are some who would say that Wes Clark peaks today. Does he?"
Asked by Miles O'Brien on CNN. 4 M mp3 of CNN's coverage of Clark announcing, including that quote.

Thoughts? (no flames, please)

1. Wes Clark will be around come convention time
running neck and neck with either Kerry or Dean.

4. I don't know about Kerry still being around
I think it will be Edwards and Dean. I like Kerry, but his chief advantage is his military service and Clark trumps him on that one.

"we can do better" great line, where'd that come from???
--Long on looks, short on content.

Me thinks the man need some Xperience before running, perhaps

12. and it will start glowing red as a problem really soon
despite all the time and help in the world, he is only fresh meat and everyone has been studying and preparing to viscerate him. I would feel sorry if he hadn't pissed on Edwards yesterday. Screw him.

7. If I could predict the future, I would have been rich by now
speculating on things that I can't know is tiresome :hi:

11. That's why I voted "Don't know" in my own poll. It's interesting, though,
Edited on Wed Sep-17-03 03:48 PM by Wonk
how many DUers (and other various pundits) think that they do know one way or the other :hi:

8. The well spoken candidate has the edge.
And he's not afraid to point out 43*'s shortcomings. He'll probably make Time's cover next week, as well. I also think he's gonna click with a lot of mid-westerners. Nope, I don't think he's peaked. Can't wait for the October debate, myself.

Just my thoughts.

10. huh?
How can you peak when you've just started? I don't get it. Is he going to go from 1% in the polls with no money to * in the polls with no money?
