DescriptionClark's Remarks Draw Closer Scrutiny

Democrat Wesley Clark has largely cruised under the political radar despite some eyebrow-raising remarks that abortion should be legal to the moment of birth, the Sept. 11 attacks were preventable and lobbyists make America safer.

Far from the bickering candidates and media horde in Iowa, Clark has spent much of his time campaigning in New Hampshire - he decided to bypass the early caucuses - and his comments haven't drawn the same attention as his presidential rivals.

Until now.

As the race tightens in Iowa and New Hampshire, the words of the retired Army general are undergoing closer scrutiny and prompting criticism both from his foes and Republicans, who may fear the four-star more than Howard Dean in a general election contest against President Bush.
