GEN. CLARK SAYS HE MAY RUN IN '08
Gen. Wesley Clark told FOX News today he is considering another run for the Oval Office in 2008.
But the retired NATO commander said if he does seek the Democratic nomination, he won't make the same mistake he made last time - getting into the race much too late.
Clark says the large number of candidates already considered to be running will have an effect on his decision.
Clark says his military and foreign policy experience will be his key asset in any bid he might make.
GINGRICH WARNS CURBS ON FREEDOM OF SPEECH MAY BE NECESSARY
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who is considering a bid for the GOP presidential nomination in '08, says Americans may have to get used to the idea that they may face curbs on their right to free speech, the Union Leader (Manchester N.H.) reports today.
Gingrich, who made the comments at a dinner last night in Manchester, said the U.S. may have to curb Internet and other speech in an effort to fight terrorism.

Actually Clark spoke with an AP reporter, not Fox News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20061128/ap_on_el_pr/clark2008_2) and that the factor that needed to be considered was that many candidates are starting so early.
"Clark said one factor that has changed is the number of candidates who have announced their intentions or have formed exploratory campaigns for president this early.
"There's no doubt it's moved earlier," Clark said. "Some people have never stopped running.... It's just a factor that has to be considered."
Hope this help clarify.
Thanks. Leave it to FOX News to run an AP story without identifying it as such!
Wow. What nomination is Gingirch looking for? President of the former Soviet Union?
