I know I'm going to take a beating here but I kinda like Wesley Clark. He has never held a public office, he is very intelligent (Rhodes Scholar), and he has a lifetime of experience in foreign policy (4-star general, supreme commander NATO). It might be refreshing to get someone who's cut from a different mold.
Wes Clark changes his tune every week. He was relieved of his command a year early for ethics violations, and integrity issues. Gen. Richard Shelby (Clarks C/O) said he has known Wes Clark for decades and Wes would shure as hell NEVER get his vote. Plus he is just a puppet for the Clintons.
Bush's blank stare is an expression caused by his deep thought in attempting to articulate his message. He has had problems in the past getting the right words out, and when he bites his lip and ponders, I believe he is dipping deep into his heart for the message.
Dean's blank stare is his manipulative attempts at bull $#!%ing the voters enough to slither his way into a good paying, power charged job with lot's of benefits.

Correct me if I am wrong the last Rhodes Scholar that was in the White House nearlly got his butt kicked out for sex acts with the hirded help. Not saying that Westly would do such a thing, just saying that being a Rhodes Scholar don't count for much as it used to. Ex milatary seem a bit too stiff and autocratic unwilling to take into consideration what the poeple of the country want not what he thinks they need or should have or do.
Dosen't seem that there are any of them that is worth the powder to blow them into the next county. Seems that this office should be one of those that you should be dragged kicking and screeming into the office not begging for the job.

Or it could just be the haze of the last few Rum and Cokes he's had.

I'm looking in to Wesley Clark for the democratic side.Dean is a little too controversial for me at this time.I dont know much about Clark,but I'm checking out his stand on the issues.I know where Bush stands and his policys.So I guess i'm still on the fence.Still have till november to decide.

Larry, you are correct about the last Rhodes Scholar in the White House. However, it's not fair to start generalizing about Rhodes Scholars. I simply brought it up to illustrate his intellectual competence. Wesley Clark also finished at the top of his class at West Point. I'm not saying the sun sets on him, but I think he's got integrity and good qualifications, but maybe that's not important in our president.

As stated before: Clark was relieved of his command because of lack of integrity and ethics violations. He has flip flopped more than any of the other candidates.
The stuff I've been reading is that Dean is going to be the leader going into the convention, but the former first b(it's so hard to not use the word that I really want to) lady is going to pull a fast one and steal (buy? borrow? confiscate?) the nomination by using last minute leaks and smears against Dean. A friend of hers has already circumnavigated the McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform laws and raised $236 million for her campaign.
It's her plan to have both Bush and Dean stand around with blank looks.
Bush is going to leave us in the poor house. He just does too much deficit spending.No balanced budget in sight.He's not doing enough on trade issues.We have a big trade deficit with a lot of jobs leaving the U.S.,a lot of good paying jobs.Too much unemployment.to name a few
