This is the whole Dean quote..
"I think General Clark is a good guy, but I truly believe he's a Republican. I do. Harry Truman once said if you run a Republican against a Republican, the Republican's going to win every time," Dean said.
"Look, I don't mean offense to Gen. Clark. He is a good guy. And I don't mind that he voted for Nixon and Reagan. That was a long time ago," Dean said. "What bothers me is he went out and raised money for the Republican Party and said great things about Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and George Bush."
Now.. I never did totally understand Clarks answer on this issue, so I'd like to get your view.. why exactly was Clark raising money for Republicans? Why exactly did he publicly praise them?
I'm not looking for snarky answers that devolve into Dean bashing.. and fellow Dean supporters I'm not asking for your reasons why.. I want real honest.. rational reasons for this. Clark will stay my #2/#3 person, but I WOULD like some clarification on this.
