I hold with David Horowitz (www.frontpagemag.com) and his "Shadow Party" thesis; that Soros, his billionaire buddies and the 527's and lobbying groups they either created for the occasion (America Coming Together, The Media Fund, The Open Society Institute--just two of the best known) or have bought out, have essentially purchased a controlling interest in the Democrat Party and have gradually taken it over. This was put baldly just a few weeks ago--"We've bought it. We've paid for it. It's ours"--as several of his lackeys stated openly.
Horowitz found this troubling in the extreme, but I find myself strangely reassured, as this caricature of an insane James Bond supervillain tightens his hold on the reins of the donkey party, he drives it ever further to the looney left. Americans are not stupid (whatever Michael Moore may say about us to european audiences) and they want no part of it.
Soros' megabucks may end up fueling a renaissance in the advertising business and I'm sure he is doing his part to fuel the gross national product but he cannot win elections with the slate of fruits and nuts which is all the Dem party will field nowadays and into the concievable future.
They bought the party and the Dem Leadership willingly sold it to the likes of Soros
