General Clark

Dick is thinks General Wesley Clark will be in the shake-up when the Democratic Party selects its nominee next year. I think his current poll standings are a reflection of the weakness of the current list of candidates.

Much will depend on how well Clark can defend his record. He was forced out of his post of NATO Supreme Commander by President Clinton in 1999. And, according to British General Mike Jackson, Clark wanted him to lead an assalt on the Russians after they had surprised Clark and others by securing Pristina airport during the Kosovo campaign. {This link fixed thanks to Dick.}

Of course, Clark also has to learn to make up his mind.
