I tend to think Clark would have done the best of all the Democratic candidates, as long as he didn't say something completely embarrassing. But Edwards would have done a little better than Kerry too. He probably wouldn't have won any states in the South, but he could have won Iowa and Ohio.
Gephardt and Lieberman wouldn't have been very good nominees. Lieberman wasn't willing to criticize Bush on the war at all, and would have suppresses turnout among the true believers. Gephardt would have been just as wishy-washy as Kerry on the war, and he has repeatedly demonstrated that he has no national electoral appeal.
