Wesley Clark considers running Ninedwarfs.com scrambles for new URL

With a hat tip to Political Wire, here’s the lead on a Boston Globe article: “Clark seen planning Democratic nomination bid

WASHINGTON -- In the strongest signal yet that retired US Army General Wesley K. Clark, the former NATO commander, is planning to join the Democratic presidential race, Clark told volunteers last week to step up their efforts and prepare for an announcement on Labor Day.

The introduction of Clark into the Dem race will hurt John Kerry the most since it robs him of his “only candidate to serve in the military” edge. (Kerry served in Vietnam). I doubt Clark will swing any support from the Dean camp.
