Cosmic dust!.
Is it possible that the RNC has propped up poll numbers on Clark to eliminate Kerry, Dean early. Clark might be embedded. A military man sent forward to strip away any chances of turning around military spending in favor of domestic needs.

Even Arnold has to pretend he is in the middle to win.

Who can confirm Clark's intent is to be a democrat?

2. Enough with the conspiracy theories
Other then Clark saying he is a democrat, how else can anyone respond to this?

Let's deal with the real threats out there.

4. Clark participated in (local) Republican fundraiser in 2001

JUST WHEN -- AND WHY -- DID CLARK BECOME A DEMOCRAT, ANYWAY? Former NATO Commander Wesley Clark, who today announced his candidacy for President, joined the field of contenders competing for the Democratic nomination. But as recently as two years ago, he was addressing Republican dinners in his home state of Arkansas amid speculation about a possible future Clark run for office -- as a Republican.

Speaking on May 11, 2001, as the keynote speaker to the Pulaski County Republican Party's Lincoln Day Dinner, Clark said that American involvement abroad helps prevent war and spreads the ideals of the United States, according to an AP dispatch the following day.

Two weeks later, a report in U.S. News and World Report said Arkansas Republican politicos were "pondering the future of Wesley Clark:" "Insiders say Clark, who is a consultant for Stephens Group in Little Rock, is preparing a political run as a Republican. Less clear: what office he'd campaign for. At a recent Republican fund-raiser, he heralded Ronald Reagan's Cold War actions and George Bush's foreign policy. He also talked glowingly of current President Bush's national security team. Absent from the praise list -- his former boss, ex-Commander in Chief Bill Clinton."

Clark told CNN's Judy Woodruff earlier this month that he had decided to register as a Democrat. Left unsaid and unknown at this point is exactly when and why he decided to become a Democrat.
