Paul Hackett, Wes Clark and the Democratic Party
Last night I saw Paul Hackett speak at the party at Democracy Fest. There was almost no one prouder to be a Democrat. There was almost no one that believed in our party and what it stands more than him. We in the Democratic Party are lucky to have gotten these non-political outsiders like Hackett and Clark into the party. They work so hard for the party. They believe in it more than even some of the people here and I am proud to be in the same party.

2. Clark has been absolutely tireless in working for the party
Since he left active duty service. I have been amazed at how much he travels, speaks, writes, appears on TV, e-mails, and stumps for other candidates. Like I said, absolutely tireless.

9. Clark is "Tireless" about any task he approaches
We are lucky indeed. Wesley Clark is one of the finest Americans alive and would be a notable figure in our history if he never lifted another finger in his life.

3. I wish Hackett will have a major role in the party.
With a little more experience he could be president.?

7. A lot more experience.
He doesn't really know anything about governing. But it doesn't appear that he's going to get a shot anytime soon since Senate and Governor of Ohio is this year. I don't know when Senate comes up again.

5. I agree that the New "Strong" blood of Democrats of a different Breed
Is helping the Democratic Party revise their "image"! However, moves like the DCCC pulling a web ad instead of standing up for why they originally made it takes us three steps back.

Love Wes!

Like Hackett most of the time!

6. I love Wes! And, he has been tireless in support of the Democratic Party..
And their Democratic candidates. He's an amazing man -- an oddity, in fact -- He's a true intellectual who can talk about anything and explain the most complicated things in a way most people can easily understand. He's a decent human being whith a heart and a soul to go with that steel-trap mind, too. I'm a huge Wes fan.

I like Hackett most of the time, but have more than a few "issues" with him. I do, however, like the fact that he has a mouth and is not afraid to use it. I admire that sort of courage in people.

And, I agree with you, they are proud to be Democrats, and their pride is contagious.
