From reading about his military experience and his stance on issues, it sounds like Wesley Clark would make an excellent president. I'd listen to what he has to say, maybe even work on his campaign if I like his message...

...except that he's not campaigning. It seems that four dorks and a chic who needs new headshots are expending a lot of energy and time to convince a hard working general now in the private sector to run for president.

But Howard Fineman says "Wes Clark is in." I'm not sure if he means that he's in the race or he's "in" like fake vintage T-shirts. A search of Google News only turned up one article definitively stating that he's running, but that article is actually a press release from another Clark-pimping website.

From everything I've Googled after a friend pointed me in the direction of Wesley Clark, if Clark runs and gets the nomination, he could seriously beat the pants off of Bush. With his military experience, the precient statments he made about Iraq, and his economic fortitude, Clark makes Bush look like the puppet he his and could break the wartime-incumbency that has spoiled other elections, such as Nixon/McGovern in 1972 (McGovern lost 49 states).

However, the Democratic campaigns are well underway. If he hasn't entered the race yet, Wesley Clark has a lot of catching up to do.

Here's an idea, though: Wesley Clark as Howard Dean's running mate. Hmmmm?
