Wes Clark: Ferraro In Drag

By The Daily Dish
Jul 1 2008, 5:57 AM ET

Or something like that:

It didn’t work for Ferraro because both her point, and the way she went about making and restating it, were outlandish. But so far it seems to be working for Wesley Clark. He’s not backing down, and the debate about whether McCain’s service is an automatic qualification for being president is now in its second day.

So just to be clear: Wesley Clark isn’t trying to Swift Boat John McCain. That’s so 2004. He’s trying to Ferraro John McCain. And so far he’s proving to be more skilled at it than Ferraro ever was.
