"DERRY, N.H. -- (Houston Chronicle) Moments after praising his opponents in the Democratic presidential race as worthy running mates, Wesley Clark said, in no uncertain terms, how he would respond if they or anyone else criticized his patriotism or military record.
'I'll beat the s--- out of them,' Clark told a questioner as he walked through the crowd after a town hall meeting Saturday. 'I hope that's not on television,' he added.
It was, live, on C-SPAN.
The campaign's traveling press secretary, Jamal Simmons, was with Clark at the time.
'If anyone tries to question Wes Clark's character, integrity or his commitment to this country or its security, they're going to be in the biggest fight they've ever had,' Simmons said. "

Well, it looks like Wesley Clark is now trying to beat Howard Dean on the flip flop game. As much as I agree with Howard Dean on a lot of issues, his reknown bad temper, and flip flopping on his flip flops really do concern me. Seeing how the Democratic presidential candidates are committing fratricide by bashing and sticking knives in each other and not addressing the issues straight on, one can only think that President Bush is going to perhaps find and eat the carrot. Sad.
