New York Post - September 23, 2003 WHY CLARK WILL FADE By DICK MORRIS THE shocking truth about the U.S. presidential race is that the sudden and headlong collapse of President Bush's popularity has created such a vacuum that a new candidate such as retired Gen. Wesley Clark has no difficulty soaring to the top of the polls based on one week's publicity. The most recent Newsweek survey documents both Bush's crash and Clark's rise. Bush is now down to a job-approval rating of only 51 percent. More ...

[via Sam Smith's Progressive Review] HOW CLARK ALMOST BECAME A BUSHIE HOWARD FINEMAN, NEWSWEEK After Al Qaeda attacked America, retired Gen.
