“The Clark Bar Association“? That name is sure to draw snickers when crunch time arrives. Clark will face mounds of mockery, which may prove to be the kiss of death for his candidacy and, if he’s the nominee, ensure the re-election of the jolly rancher now in the White House. If Clark is smart, he’ll make sure that whatever staffer thought of this doesn’t see another payday. Such a decision could be a lifesaver for the campaign. —James Taranto —Best of the Web Today (Opinion Journal)
For this nutty little essay mocking Wesley Clark’s adoption of the Clark candy bar as a campaign tool, Opinion Journal earns a sweet spot on my tootsie blog roll. (Note to self regarding possible career as comedy writer: keep day job.)
