Here's a little more speculation just to keep things interesting...

I could see Clark taking Dean as VP if he ended up with the nomination, and I suspect based on comments made by Dean and Trippi that he is their lead choice for the VP slot. A surprise announcement of a joint ticket between the two would almost certainly be the nail in everyone else's coffin, including Bush. I think they complement each other so well they could easily crush Bush in what could be one of the most one-sided elections ever. Bush would lose much or all of the south. I'd be shocked if he made it to over 30% of the popular vote against Dean/Clark. Optimistic perhaps, but clearly Dean is taking off in a major way, his rhetoric and style resonates in a way rarely seen in politics - I really believe we are just now seeing the beginnings of what his campaign is capable of, and Clark is a very strong candidate. I have concerns about him being weak on domestic issues vs. other candidates, but teamed with Dean this can be alleviated by touting Vermont and using the incredible campaign infrastructure Dean has built up. Generally I would say that as things seem now, Dean/Clark would be a lot stronger than Clark/Dean, but no matter which way you cut it they can definitely kick ass like nothing else.
