Where's CLARK, Where's DEAN?
Clark should be campaigning non-stop in Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee, Virginia & North Carolina (all strong military areas).

Dean and Clark should be on more TV shows, and DEAN should be in Oregon, Nevada and Arizona for the next two weeks.

Why or why don't we use our surrogates effectively???

4. Stop it.
This is done several times a week. I have posted Dean's appearances all over the board. Clark is active everywhere as well.

If you do not know what they are doing then you have not been paying attention.

I know those two are very active.

7. Dean is in NJ on Monday. I just posted that this evening.
He was in PA last night. Ohio today, and some other state next week. On the road 6 days a week. Was also in VT a couple of days ago rallying with Peter Clavelle for Governor, and Jessica Falker for VT house.

5. You have to be kidding.
Dean is busting tail (as always) and Clark Im sure is busting some too.

Don't worry about them.

You may instead want to keep an eye on what you are doing to help Kerry win.

6. I see Clark on TV more than I see Edwards
You must have turned your TV off. Clark is all over the place. I went to a fundraiser on Monday night where Clark gave a speech and his presence brought in much needed funding for a congressional race where we might beat the 35 year incumbent. Clark had arrived in from Iowa earlier that day and left quickly because he was going to be in Ohio the next morning. Clark has also encouraged his primary supporters to come to Arkansas and turn the state blue and has had some success. He is doing a great deal all over the country. You should just dig a little deeper.

9. Where's Obama??
I think Barak should be on all the networks, especially like Crossfire and shows like that to kind of drive home Stewarts message, but with more of a left twist. He can give a really dignified face to the left viewpoint, and why not use it since his race in IL is all but won?

16. He is also out on the stump.
All of these people are out busting ass for Kerry. The press is busting it's ass for B$$$. That's why there is no coverage. We're lucky if we here from Edwards every other day. The press would rather tell you Clinton isn't out there yet.

29. Thank you! I'm teaching for about three hours tomorrow, and
I hope that it will be on either before or after that. I had to miss seeing Dean when he was last here because of work.

15. Hang tight, they'll be out there
The Democrats will have their heavy artillery out in due course. The Republicans don't have all their surrogates out yet either.

By next week I ecpect not only the Clintons, but Howard Dean, Wes Clark, Al Gore, Dennis Kucinich, Jesse Jackson, Joe Lieberman (yes, he is useful in some precincts) and Barack Obama. Then we'll have our Hollywood crowd. Michael Moore, who is already on a huge tour of the country. Don't worry about it.

19. Clark and Dean have been all over the
media lately. In the last two weeks alone, Clark has done his patented smackdown thang on Sean Hannity, been interviewed on CNN's Late Edition (Sunday 10/17), been on MSNBC and Al Franken's show (10/18), and appeared at fundraisers from Colorado to Chicago to New Jersey.

AFAIK Dean has been equally active. I know I've seen him on the cable shows several times lately, but I don't remember specifics.

20. Are you kidding?
They are on the ground working their asses off. Clark was on Al Franken's show Monday and Dean was just on CNN with Wolf Blitzer (who cut him short yet AGAIN). They have both started wonderful organizations that are helping not only our presidential candidate, but also in very important local congressional races as well:

http://www.democracyforamerica.com/

http://www.wespac2004.com/#home

<snip>
Michael Cook of Little Rock said the party easily surpassed its goal of raising $100,000 for the ad campaign, seen as a necessity after the Democratic presidential campaign stopped spending advertising money in Arkansas.

Cook wouldn’t reveal the content of the advertisements but said they’ll feature leaders with Arkansas ties such as Wesley Clark, the retired Army general who was NATO commander; Rodney Slater, a former U.S. transportation secretary; and Dale Bumpers, the state’s former U.S. senator and governor.

The state Republican Party executive director of the coordinated campaign in Arkansas has accused the Democrats of flouting campaign-finance laws with the ad strategy.

Clint Reed of Greenbrier said Tuesday that he’ll wait to hear the ads before deciding whether a Federal Election Commission complaint is in order. But he said the fact that Clark’s voice will be used calls into question whether the Democrats are running an independent ad campaign. "There cannot be anyone with a formal role or who serves as a formal agent of the John Kerry campaign," Reed said. He said Clark is a "John Kerry surrogate."

26. DU's outstanding search function
is your friend. You should try it, you can find out where Dean and Clark are on a daily basis if you are interested.

They are out there making a difference like President Kerry will do for us all.
