Clark's victory speech
"This is the first election I've had since homeroom student council representative. This is a big step for me."

http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/01/27/elec04.prez.main/index.html

I really like Clark, but sometimes when he says something like this it makes me cringe. I think he should learn to differentiate between folksy and outsider, and looking like a rank amateur. I hope he continues to grow at a much faster pace if he stays in this to the end, and wins the nomination. That said, I really hope Edwards wins the nomination.

3. Seeing as how the Edwards supporters here are taking...
non-stop potshots at Clark for no good reaso
let me remind you that Edwards is a slick trial lawyer.

And guess what, I don't like slick trial lawyers. Most
of America doesn't like slick trial lawyers. He is
great trying to come across as Mr. Folksy but bottom
line his campaign has been underwritten by other trial
lawyers.

As much as I want to like him, I don't trust him. You know
why? If he was a good lawyer, he would have been a public
defendant.

5. Clark instills fear
in the GOP and his rivals alike.

6. Clark does the same thing to Edwards.
Edited on Tue Jan-27-04 11:03 AM by MATTMAN
You should look on the Clark blog they have said some bad things about Edwards.
http://www.forclark.com/story/2004/1/26/202837/587

And anyways Edwards is a slick trial lawyer who helped stood up against the big corporations. Please get your story straight.

8. Fortunately Clark did not say that.
But someone said that the Edwards fans make nonstop attacks on Clark. But it is the other way around.

9. Mattman, it's really weak to go about other people's blogs.
You'll never hear anything good about your candidate doing it. I stay away from them and find it a good policy. Just a suggestion.

11. Litigation is ruining the fabric of this country...
his 20 million dollar profits suing rich companies
is just one suit getting rich off another.

Get your story straight.

17. Somebody has to do it.
Somebody has to stand up to these big corporations who have neglected families.

14. That Victory Speech received
great laughter. The people in the crowd loved it and so did I. He's a great guy. Leave him alone. Leave the snide, nit picky remarks to the masters of it...THE MEDIA.

Go Wes!

16. If this silly aside made you cringe..
I can make up a list of far more cringe-worthy quotes from every candidate, including Clark. This campaign must have been a cringefest for you if this is a standout.

:wtf:
