Wesley Clark Stumps for Jane

By Matt Hurley for the TIB Network:

Retired Gen. Wesley K. Clark [war criminal?] will appear at a Courthouse Square rally today in support of Democrat Jane Mitakides, 3rd District candidate for Congress.

Mitakides of Washington Twp. is challenging freshman U.S. Rep. Mike Turner, R-Centerville.

Clark [war criminal?], who sought the Democratic presidential nomination this year, will speak during a 5 p.m. public rally, billed as a program honoring American military personnel and veterans. Afterward, he will take part in a fund-raiser for Mitakides at Crowne Plaza Hotel.

"It's hard for me to put into words how honored I am that he's coming in," said Mitakides, who has been active in political campaigns but is making her first run for office. "I come from a family with very deep military roots and I very much admire Gen. Clark [war criminal?]."
Emphasis and bracketed commentary added.

Matt's Chat

Jane, Jane, Jane...first it was Kos, now it's Wesley [war criminal?]. She just doesn't seem to exercise good judgement. Either that or she is just so desperate for help that she'll take whatever she can get. I'm not sure which scenario is worse...

I'm not all that concerned. Rep. Turner has three times the money Jane does and doesn't appear all that vulnerable. [Side note on that last one: that UD poli-sci professor appears to really know her stuff. I can't detect any liberal bias in her, but she IS a professor at a Catholic university...]
