LoL.. Thats funny.. True believers of any kind despise traitors and dupes.. even though they use them like rented mules.. Remember a book by Tex Marrs, "The 4th Reich of the Rich".. or something like that.. Was pretty good.. Was kinda like the David Ichys stuff.. Moonbat'ish.. But opened me up to considering America was not immune from world class malfeance..
Today I think there is a very real possibility that America is run (more or less) by a shadow gov't.. Just the presence of "the State Department" with all its power no matter who is President smacks of it.. How much?.. If at all...I dunno.. But John Kerry of all people running against Bush(2004) strikes me as just a little too convenient.. With all his negatives against a war time President.. Its like the demos took a dive.. And if so, directed by whom?..
Makes me think maybe the Pubbies will take a dive next time.. for Hillary.. If they select a RINO they could very well take a dive.. And they will you know, come on admit it, you know they will.. The denyablity is pregnant too.. If there is a shadow gov't it would be smart too.. Satisfy both sides of a polarized populace.. in iterations.. The illusion of vacillating power.. when it isn't vacillating at all..
Too cynical, say you.?. I don't think I'm cynical enough.. Political machines are not new.. here or anywhere.. Made into a "science", and updated, poltical machinery would be hard to stop, sans a revolution.. Even with a revolution, whos to say the machine didn't cause the revolution as a last ditch effort to retain power.. with a remnant.. and organized cadre for the "future"..

Well, I don't agree with this view, except partially in terms of the Kerry analysis. I do feel that Hillary has had tremendous power in the Democratic Party, at least since being elected Senator. There is no doubt, Kerry's election would have hurt her personal bid for power. She would have been unable to run until 2012, at which time she would be getting fairly old.
I think she could have sabotauged the Democratic attempt to control the Media on Kerry, specifically by allowing Fox to run Swift Boat stuff. I know Fox is fairly conservative, but Hillary has succeeded in canceling the Fox interview with the author of the new Hillary book. I am undecided on this part of the analysis.
I agree the State Department is communist (or, more exactly, controlled by the Hard Left, since most of them do not probably literally subscribe to Marxism/Leninism, now even denounced by Putin.) However, it is annaccurate to conclude from that that there is a single Shadow Government.
Clearly though, as demostrated in Operation Iraqi Freedom and it's aftermath in Iraq, the State Department makes it difficult for the US to follow policies that conflict with the hard left agenda. For example, Turkey denied our troops permission to attack, apparently, because we did not have UN approval. Of course, Bush never counted on UN approval, and we should never have had 1/4 of out troops dependent, in effect, on UN approval to be free for action. This is the kind of detail tradtionally handled by the State Department. Or in this case, purposefully mishandled.
In addition, the Hard Left has probably gotten to some of the Seven Dwarfs via blackmail, etc., thus blurring the distinction between the parties. We have to fight to resharpen that distinction, hopefully via a conservative national campaign to defeat one of the Seven Dwarfs (fillibuster sell outs) in the primary in 2006. It would be modeled on the Toomey vs. Specter campaign, which came very close to working.
