I've maintained for months that the 2004 Presidential election was mainly about pushing the Democrats as far to the left as possible (Dean? Kerry? give me a break). There was no real intention of winning, but it would give Hillary the opportunity to paint herself as a centrist leading up to the 2008 election.

Factor in the media's bias and acceptance of her "oh-i'm-a-centrist-moderate-because-i-say-i'm-a-centrist-moderate", and ouila -- Hillary the Moderate.

Consider the fact that the media never covered the moderate BS from her. Who else would they allow to slide under the radar
