SUMMARY: When Democratic strategist Chris Kofinis said on MSNBC that "to go out there and wax poetically about 'how dare someone question the patriotism of John McCain,' no Democrat has been doing that," political analyst Joe Watkins interrupted, saying, "Wesley Clark did, though," repeating the assertion in a later MSNBC segment. In fact, Clark praised McCain as a "hero to me and to hundreds of thousands of millions of others in the Armed Forces as a prisoner of war."
