Clark's demise
Clark really made a mistake by opting out of the Iowa primaries. If Dean wins both Iowa and New Hampshire, he will steamroll to the nomination. No Super Tuesday strategy will be able to stop him. Plus with Edwards now leading in a new poll in South Carolina, Clark is increasingly becoming irrelevant, other than as a possible VP candidate.
With Clark out of the picture, this leaves only one candidate who can stop Dean. Kerry is positioned in both Iowa and New Hampshire to do very well. A finish ahead of Dean in Iowa (likely) will catapult him into a tight race in New Hampshire. Kerry’s chances get better and better as the anti-Dean movement grows.
