A new national poll has Wesley Clark closing the gap on Howard Dean.

Update: The New Republic has just endorsed Joe Lieberman. Kos at Daily Kos has numerous posts on why the New Republic is not a liberal publication. From his latest:

Remember, TNR is a publication that bills itself of the Left, while owned by a hard-core Republican and Zell Miller Democrat who just donated $2,000 to Bush-Cheney 2004. Whose interests do you think those guys have in mind?

So they have injected themselves into the Democratic primary process, like wolves in sheep's clothing, advertising on progressive blogs and perpetuating the myth that they are a journal of the left.

They endorsed Lieberman. Good for them. I've been trying to make the argument that The New Republic lacks any relevance within Democratic Party circles. They've just made the case for that better than I ever could.
