I had been mulling over writing a lengthy explanation of why I think Clark is the best hope for the Democratic party, and why Dean does not have a chance against Bush/Rove.
Then I read the story about Clark being in favor of a constitutional ban on flag burning. My heart sank, as I realized he has become just another pandering politician.
I had stayed away from politics for some years, thinking it's all idiocy, but for a brief moment I thought Clark could lead us out of the morass. I should have stayed away.
