September 19, 2003Clark UpdateBy Andrew DobbsOkay, things were going well with Clark in my opinion until I saw this article in the New York Times.
Okay, so in addition to being much further to the right on the issue of the war (later in the article he specifically says that he sees his opinion being closer to that of Lieberman and Gephardt than Dean) he also seems to be unable to articulate an opinion without the help of his handler. Perhaps I'm being too tough on the guy after one day of campaigning, but the way I see it he lost his biggest political assets- being an independent comentator, not being a politician- when he announced. So now he is in fact a politician, but not a very good one it appears. He also said that he supported Nixon and Reagan at the time of their respective elections but turned Dem after Clinton inspired him. I have really no problem with that- so many Dems switched sides because of Nixon and Reagan its nice to see someone going the other way.

Dean made some gaffes before as well. Clark's folks have to keep him on message. This is some of that inexperience coming to haunt him. I hope it's not a pattern. Posted by: pc at September 19, 2003 11:13 AM
