And this is supposed to be bad, why....?
There is a major struggle underway for the purse strings of the DNC, On one side we have Terry McAuliffe, the DLC and the Clinton's who are behind the scenes making sure none of the 9 Nincumpoops end up in the White House in 2004 in order to set the stage for Hildabeast in 2008.
On the other side, we have the far left liberals who have managed to get lots of support from every wacko special interest group out there and Howard Dean is their angry lefty of choice. Meanwhile the far left has MoveOn.org raising money from George Soros and other assorted Socialist and now Al Gore has arrived to settle a score with the Clinton's.
Al Gore is motivated because by all rights he should have had control of the DNC after he won the nomination in 2000, but somehow a lame duck president was the one who nominated the Chairman of the DNC, Slick Willy did very little to help Gore during his Campaign and I can't help but think it was part of a plan for Hillary to run in '04, but 9/11 came along all plans for Hillary changed after witnessing the way GWB stood up to the challenge.
I predict a major effort by Hillary, Bill and Terry McAuliffe if Howard Dean maintains the lead he enjoys right now. You can best believe that McAuliffe is working behind the scenes to undermine Dean, with the other 8 losers up for the nomination. If after the South Carolina primary and Dean is winning big, I bet we will see attack ad's coming from a 527 group made up of and funded by the DLC. Probably even Harold Ickies newly founded 527 group.
These Democrats are going to carve themselves into pieces and if you think the left hates Bush now, wait until after the Democrat party splits :-)

Who the heck is ROF (the purple line that tanked in Sept)?
Gore endorsing Dean is the equivalent of Death endorsing Taxes.
FRegards...
ROF = Rest of Field. Please read the prospectus carefully before you invest or send money.
GWB backed by common sense politic's.

by Mia T, 4.6.03 Mia T, THE ALIENS Al From is sounding the alarm. "Unless we convince Americans that Democrats are strong on national security," he warns his party, "Democrats will continue to lose elections." Helloooo? That the Democrats have to be spoon-fed what should be axiomatic post-9/11 is, in and of itself, incontrovertible proof that From's advice is insufficient to solve their problem. From's failure to fully lay out the nature of the Democrats' problem is not surprising: he is the guy who helped seal his party's fate. It was his Democratic Leadership Council (DLC) that institutionalized the proximate cause of the problem, clintonism, and legitimized its two eponymic provincial operators on the national stage. The "Third Way" and "triangulation" don't come from the same Latin root for no reason. That "convince" is From's operative word underscores the Democrats' dilemma. Nine-eleven was transformative. It is no longer sufficient merely to convince. One must demonstrate, demonstrate convincingly, if you will… which means both in real time and historically. When it comes to national security, Americans will no longer take any chances. Turning the turn of phrase back on itself, the era of the Placebo President is over. (Incidentally, the oft-quote out-of-context sentence fragment alluded to here transformed meaningless clinton triangulation into a meaningful if deceptive soundbite.) Although From is loath to admit it -- the terror in his eyes belies his facile solution -- the Democratic party's problem transcends its anti-war contingent. With a philosophy that relinquishes our national sovereignty -- and relinquishes it reflexively… and to the UN no less -- the Democratic party is, by definition, the party of national insecurity. With policy ruled by pathologic self-interest -- witness the "Lieberman Paradigm," Kerry's "regime change" bon mot (gone bad), Edwards' and the clintons' brazen echoes thereof (or, alternatively, Pelosi's less strident wartime non-putdown putdown)… and, of course, the clincher -- eight years of the clintons' infantilism, grotesquerie and utter failure -- the Democratic party is, historically and in real time, the party of national insecurity. The Democrats used to be able to wallpaper their national insecurity with dollars and demogoguery. But that was before 9/11. P.S. As for pathologic self-interest, check out Richard Miniter's C-SPAN interview; the interview is contained in my latest virtual hillary movie (below), hillary talks:ON TERROR; it is absolutely devastating for the clintons. Miniter presents the clintons' monumental failure to protect America in breathtaking detail. Note in particular Madeleine Albright's shocking reason given at the time of the USS Cole attack why the clinton administration should not respond militarily. It tell us everything we need to know about the clintons. It tell us why clinton redux is an absolutely suicidal notion. Notwithstanding their cowardice, corruption, perfidy and essential stupidity, the clintons, according to Albright, made their decision not to go after the terrorists primarily for reasons of their own legacy and power. The clintons reasoned that such inaction would MAXIMIZE THEIR CHANCES TO RECEIVE THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE. No matter that that inaction would also maximize the terrorists' power, maximize America's danger. |
---- only Hillary
Call it what it will be...Communist Party USA.
He balanced the budget? That was done by the Republican Gov. who died in office and left him as gov. In addition..his state has about the same population as our county. Not much of a resume'for someone who wants to be the "most powerful man in the world."
