Randy,
Check out my configuration. It is similar to what you want to do. It
works with Aquamacs, emacs23.x , emacs24 and there is a branch that
works on Windows with some hacking. I individually included external
dependencies in the vendors directory; including clojure-mode, slime
and emacs-starter-kit. It is a relatively good starting point to
derive your own usable solution. I didn't really intend it to be used
by other people, thus the name pollution with jmatt-emacs and it not
being a drop-in easy solution.

Also I'd recommend looking at overtone's live-coding-emacs. It allowed
me to find a number of clojure niceties that would otherwise have
taken a long time to stumble upon.
