First, BRCK BM surrogate Wesley Clark said McCain would represent Bush’s Third Term, as if the Bush-McCain split isn’t legendary.
Now Gen. Clark says McCain doesn’t have enough military experience, as if there were any national politician with a more impressive story of service and dedication to this country.
Just to save Gen. Clark some time, let’s list a few more brilliant attacks he could make:
- Cast McCain as a political outsider who doesn’t understand the political process or know the major players.
- Point to McCain’s lack of legislative achievement in the Senate, his failure to make a mark on Congress, and his inability to reach bipartisan compromise.
- Say McCain is too conservative to appeal to moderates and Democrats, people like, oh, and I’m just pulling out a random name here, Joe Lieberman.
- Explain why his policies are unpopular with Hispanic voters.
- Accuse him of pork-barrel spending.
- Question his patriotism.
That should get you through the next few weeks, General.

That’s the biggest problem for the Dems this time around.
They don’t have anything of substance to attack McCain on. He’s been riding the bipartisan thing so long, any attack on him will be an attack on them as well.

It’s obvious to me the only reason you besmirch General Clark’s besmirching of John McCain is because of your bigoted prejudices. Clearly, you, Mick, are a racist.

Just kiddin’, Mick.
How in the world did Wes get a star?

You can add:
1) He finished in the bottom 1% of his graduation class at the Naval Academy
2) He fip-flopped on dozens of issues - shows no consistency
3) He is computer illiterate… can you imagine?

William, those negatives aren’t absurd enough for Wesley Clark’s use; you’ll have to try harder.

You know what you call someone who graduates at the bottom of the class at the Naval Academy?
Sir.
