Why do I suspect the references to Cleland around here will fade, or take on a different tone? LOL I'm definitely not seeing a Cleland VP spot on a Dean ticket!
This was emailed to me, so I don't have a link, but it is from an impeccable source and is said to be from today's Political Wire (whatever that is):
"Now, at a time when young Americans are being killed and wounded by President Bush's failed policy in Iraq... Our country can not afford to have another leader who took the easy way out like George W. Bush who hid out in the Houston National Guard. We can not afford to have a leader who weaseled out of going to Vietnam on a medical deferment for a bad back and wound up on the ski slopes of Aspen like Howard Dean."
-- Former Sen. Max Cleland (D-GA), a John Kerry supporter, quoted in the Los Angeles Times. There was another good piece on Dean's deferment in the New York Times over the weekend.
