A fix for Obama/Biden's latest "flaw" in the repubs eyes
No military experience between them.

What about introducing a cabinet that includes Clark for his military experience? Add Webb in there and watch the repubs seeth, even throw in PA's Sestak.

(army) http://www.clark04.com/about /
(marines) http://webb.senate.gov/jim /
(navy) http://joesestak.com/about-joe /

That comes up to about 75 years of accumulated military command experience.

That was just off the top of my head with my morning....er... afternoon coffee.

Can anybody come up with someone from the AF to add?

3. We're going to have to blow holes in their "strength" myth - it won't be easy...
I like Clark, and had no problem with what he said about McCain ~ wish I knew what went down between him and Obama. Seems he doesn't have a part in the convention.

Request networks and CSpan to re-air Biden's 9/10/01 speech....the night before 9/11 ... that he made on CSpan....
