I honestly don't understand (1). The only thing I can think of working against Wesley Clark is that he proudly stated, referring to President George W. Bush, "we have been pursuing Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden and haven't gotten either one of them yet". When Hussein was captured in Dec. 2003, that took a lot of the sting out of Clark's comment. Also, Clark had supported Reagan in the 80s, which perhaps the Dems held against him, although in retrospect they probably shouldn't have. (Reagan would die in June 2004; at the GOP convention later that year, President Bush would point out that Dem nominee John Kerry had referred to the Reagan years as "8 years of moral darkness", to a loud chorus of boos).
