My take on Clark in Tenesee and Dean in Washington state...

[Endangered Specie]

Clark is on a massive offensive in Tenesse against Kerry, and Dean predicts he can/will win Washington state.

The way I see it, these two candidates are putting in shall we say, all their marbles into these states. Kind of like Edwards in SC, it is a must win for these two.

It represents to me these two candidates last assault, their "Battle of the Bulges", the last offensive to gain momentum.

If they lose them, they are finished, at least that is my prediction.

1. Perhaps

But you need to throw Edwards into that mix: if he fails in TN & VA where is he going to defeat Kerry soon enough to derail the nomination train? It won't be WI -- Edwards isn't drawing enough of the liberal dem vote to contest there.

2. Tennessee!

Spell check is a wonderful gift from DU.

4. Gee, I didn't know what the poster meant before you corrected it.

correcting understandable typos is just as much of a pet peeve to me as incorrect spelling is to you.

3. How about Clark-Dean make a pact on the two states

Clark supporters in WA caucus for Dean. Dean supporters in TN vote for Clark. Both candidates get what they need and live to fight another day.
