To Clark supporters from a Clark supporter: A hell of a ride!
Advertisements [?]
I'm as upset as the rest of you. I was planning to vote for him next week in Wisconsinn, and have been talking to many people I know about him. I feel let down, and do not plan to vote in the primary, since I am still a bit stung by all of this, and I am not as passionate about the other candidates.

But rest assured, whether you immediately switch to your second choice (which is cool) or hold out until there's a nominee, we owe it to the General and all of the US to vote for the eventual Dem nominee against Bush, whoever that may be.

It was a longshot, but it was a hell of a ride. Unfortunately, the deck was stacked against our guy. But let's remember the good things. Clark changed the dynamics of the Democratic party. Think anyone would be talking about AWOL if it wasn't for Clark? Or that the average person would question Bush's strengths on Iraq or national security? Highly doubtful.

We all feel a bit stung tonight, and this will pass over time. I'm still ABB, and will vote for the guy most likely to defeat him. I strongly suggest we all do this. If not for ourselves, at least for Wes Clark, and for all America. We owe that much.
