Bubba's objective is transparent: he wants to get rid of John F. Kerry so he doesn't interfere with Hillary's 2008 White House plans. The bottom line is if Hillary wants to be President, no Democrat is going to be elected this year. Former President Clinton couldn't make it any clearer to the Democratic Party's new front-runner than by trying to saddle him with the Clinton sock puppet, Gen. Wesley "Mad Hare" Clark.

The goal is to keep Clark in the game, so when Hillary runs in 2008, she can put the general on the ticket as a VEEP to shore up her military vulnerability. She doesn't exactly have the reputation of a Margaret Thatcher. If the Clinton game plan succeeds, their 2008 ticket: Hillary and Clark. This will inspire the Republicans to run something like a Ridge and Condi, or Condi and Ridge (or Santorum) ticket. They will need PA and they will need a woman.

I think there is another possibility as well. What goofier pair can you possibly put together? I mean, individually they are dumb, but together you got dumb and dumber. The Clintons want no chance that Clark will spend the next 4 years building up his machine for 2008 and then challenge Hillary. This way they kill two birds with one stone, really destroy Kerry's chance of winning, and have Clark go down in flames. If Bubba is anything he is politically smart. He has to know the big threat to Hillary is Edwards in 08, so he has to make sure he is not the Vice Presidential candidate. Even if they lost, Edwards would most likely come out of this as the man to beat in the Democratic Party in 08. Clark would come out of this as the Bozo of the campaign.
