19. Clark's position on Iraq is identical to Lieberman and Kerry's
Particularly in the case of Kerry, other than his vote authorizing Bush to invade Iraq in violation of the UN Charter, Kerry has a solid Democratic record. While many of us have taken strong issue with Kerry on his Iraq vote, none of us doubted Kerry's commitment to Democratic ideals.

I can't say the same about Clark. It is not that Clark used to be a Republican what bothers me, or even his fudging on the Iraq war vote. What bothers me the most about Clark, apart from NATO bombing of the former Yugoslavia, is that to this day he thinks Ronald Reagan was a great President. Clark refuses to criticize Reagan or any of his policies. Making things more troubling, is that Clark has expressed his admiration and deep friendship with neocons such as Wolfowitz and Rumsfeld.

Clark's admiration of Reagan and Reaganism is the most troubling of all (except for the NATO thing)! Not even the most DINO of DINOs has ever said that Reagan was a great President.
