Clark's Loneliness is about to end
The general has had New Hampshire to himself for two weeks, unless he had a cup of Joe with Joe. Its actually been like Clark is here alone and Joe went fishing or something.

Well the Deaniacs will be back in NH in force starting at 2AM Tuesday morning at Pease.

New Hampshire, Clark and the Press have no idea what is about to hit them. We have the force, we're pissed and ready to rock and roll.

The Deaniacs are returning to New Hampshire.

9. you first have to ask yourself..
Why has the New England son gone from a commanding lead to a dismal 3rd place and also had to borrow against his home for lack of contributions.

This was to be his strongest part of the country. What does this say for what he can do in the not so strong parts of the country? Kerry's train wreck began awhile ago and wont end anytime soon.

15. Perhaps
But that ain't what I'm hearin'...

That "train wreck" you mentioned, might just surprise everyone real soon!!

And I've been painfully watching the ups and downs of this whole thing quite closely.

ABB for me and you...peace...stay tuned!!!!!!!

32. You last have to ask yourself
Who knows what a fight is. Not just on the battle field, but in the political field as well. Who has won every one of those fights. John Kerry. Every time.

Thump, thump, stomp, stomp...

7. I am loving this
This is so exciting. I love seeing democracy in action.

A friend of mine is heading up to NH to volunteer for the Kerry campaign and asked me to come with her. If I can get the days off work I'm definitely going, but I'm not sure what campaign I want to volunteer for yet. Really I just want to BE THERE, you know?

26. honestly
I've been torn between Dean and Clark for a while now. I trust that all the candidates have good policies that I can support, so I haven't been paying attention to details of tax plans and the rest. I've just been focusing on who can kick Bush's ass. (Many might think it's odd for me to support Dean on that point, but I don't buy the media line on him being unelectable.)

Anyway, I was hoping I wouldn't have to decide, thinking it would all be over by the time we have our primary in VA. All of a sudden I have to choose, though. Ick. I like them both!

Hmm...what election night party is gonna have the best booze, ya think? ;)

27. another honestly
I'd sort of written him off, but needless to say he's up on my radar again. We're looking at 10+ hour drive, though, so my friend will have a trapped audience and I'm sure she'll do her best to woo me.

THEY'RE ALL FABULOUS!

If I could I'd spend a day volunteering for each.

It would make for a great DU report back. Maybe you could even write an article and get it published!

10. General Clark has hardly been lonely in New Hampshire
He has been drawing record crowds, in fact. Two thousand people showed up yesterday for the Clark rally in Pembroke. I'd hardly call that "lonely", would you?

14. so how has he been using his time ?
forgive the initials, trying to fit into the box

As Clark has had NH to himself for two weeks as you say, he's not been able to use that advantage to much effect.

19. Every TalkingHead I've Heard Said There'd Be An Iowa Bump
for the others the weekend before the Caucuses (NOW)

But I spend less time looking at polls than most here.

20. Clark has been getting huge crowds
that normally would be split amongst 3 or 4 that are in the state at any time.

He's about to get a big shock.

I can't wait, this will be the most incredible Dem week in NH. What ever the outcome this will be the balls.

for those that don't know, NH is about 99% gun toting repub. so this week is an awesome change.

21. There are some liberals on the Seacoast
mostly transplanted Massholes! ;-)

I think NH is more Independent, although going for Bush last time was a grave disappointment.

23. we all came from taxachusetts at one time
at least everyone I know.

We also leech off the Mass. economy, work there and then come home to our no sales tax no income tax, no services republican stronghold.

22. Citizens of New Hampshire
Sure hope you like PANCAKES! :D

Sure wish they'd rotate the primaries. I could really go for some hotcakes. By the time the Kansas caucus rolls around, I doubt we'll be able to get a candidate in here to hand out fruit roll-ups! :P

why so Angry?

Wes Clark has been to war and shot probably isn't worried about a skier and some rowdy teenagers

31. He's had a little company
..."Six other senior Clinton officials had made the long journey north to aid the Clark cause. They trooped along to stand beside Gen Clark at an All America Day rally yesterday, braving record cold temperatures in a calculated show of Clintonite support." ...

"Officially, the Clintons have kept a statesmanlike silence over their preferred candidate to take on George W Bush - but you will not find anyone in Nuffield's Ale and Steak bar who believes that."

34. Looks like after Iowa, The Dean's campaign
sails will have no wind. No spring in their steps. The campaign of Dean will be deflated. The Deaniacs will be escaping a sinking ship.

35. I'm glad that we have an additional alternative to Dean
and that alternative is Kerry after Clark of course. I could see going to work for the Kerry campaign much easier if Clark does not get the nomination. As it stands I think I will be working for the General thru next Nov.
