Dean vs. Clark (Continued)

I took the time yesterday to read Peter Boyer's lengthy criticism of Wes Clark's handling of the war in Kosovo in The New Yorker. It certainly left me with some big question marks about what i have said is Clark's long suit - foreign policy. Then i read Fred Kaplan's reply in Slate and felt a lot better about Clark.

Taken together, they give me a really great picture of this debate about Clark's dismissal and the "character and integrity" issues that Hugh Shelton slammed Clark with and now refuses to elaborate on.

If you are looking at Clark's candidacy and trying to figure out this guy, i'd suggest reading both pieces.

There is a great site which you might find interesting:
http://www.E-thepeople.org
The site allows for the discussion and debate of public policy and politics. It is designed to allow members to post new articles, comment on other articles, and evaluate the posts of their fellow community members. In essence it is similar to Slashdot, replacing politics for technology. Given your interest in Dean v. Clark, you might be interested in seeing how the community at e-thepeople.org responds and reacts to the match up. Plus, the site management is based in NYC.
