Gen. Wesley Clark said Sen. Blanche Lincoln will do just fine in her primary against progressive favorite Bill Halter.
Today at the White House during a reception for Earth Day, I did a brief interview with Clark (D-AR). I was the pool reporter for the event, and filed a brief write-up for the rest of the press.
I asked Clark what he makes of the May 18 Democratic primary between Lincoln and Halter. Clark told me he’s supporting Lincoln, though hasn’t had time to campaign for her yet because of frequent travel out of the state.
“I think she’ll succeed,” Clark said. “I admire Blanche. She’s a fine person.”
