Who will be the next Democrat to drop out ? Dean refuses to quit with a so called million dollars a day coming in. Guess he is about ready to throw a screaming temper tantrum .

    Dean has a lot of folks in his campaign staff being laid off. It doesn't really matter which of the minor candidates like Sharpeton or Kucinich drops out next, but of the major ones I would not be surprised if Dean, having lost 9 primaries and running in the red, is next. He, unlike Edwards and Clark, hasn't won one yet. I think Clark will go before Edwards.

    I have been thinking that Clark is really running for VP.

    A general that would be outranked by a Lt? I wonder if Clarks ego could handle that?

    How the blazes does Sharpeton stay in?

    Who is bank rolling this clown?

    It's time for somebody to investigate his finances, but they're all afraid of him [:(!]

    HeDog -- Good point. They've made so much of a potential Kerry/Edwards ticket that I haven't thought much about Clark. He DOES look like he might be angling for VP as a fall-back. I can certainly see him as a do-nothing cardboard stand-up VP (much like Gore) [:D]

    Dean seems to me to have burned hot and gone out quick. I guess that's the textbook definition of a flash in the pan. Somebody on TV last night said the Dems liked Dean's rhetoric best of any candidate, but when they got a look at the man, they said to themselves, "we can't vote for this guy!" Dead man walking here~!

    Sharpton is mad cause the african american vote here in SC did not do him well. He spent a lot of time in SC.. Every since MLK day.. I am still laughing at the clip the news did on him. He is at the front of the church spinnng around like a top ...

    I think Clark or Edwards will be the VP candidate.

    Both are from the South (a political necessity).

    Clark has military experience and rank (something no one on the Bush team can compete with) and status as an outsider politically speaking to off-balance Kerry's very definite insider status.

    Edwards is younger, though, and would be helpful in capturing the young vote. But since Edwards has already said (for what that's worth) that he's not interested in the VP slot, I'd say smart money is on Clark for the #2 spot.

    I think it will come down to Edwards vs Kerry.

    Monkey, Edwards has already stated he will not accept the VP position on Meet the Press.

    Now that Lieberman is gone, the next looks to be Dean if he bombs in the next round, then Clark and then Edwards by late March when I think Kerry will have it sown up. The others aren't even a consideration and are ego'n it.

    I don't see Edwards saying "No" to Kerry if it comes down to it, regardless, his prior comments.

    My few pennies...

    Select-fire,

    Yeah, I know, but that's why I added "for what it's worth." Since he's a politician, I'm willing to bet he'll give it a second thought if winning the presidential nomination doesn't look possible.
