heh heh heh

She's going to do for the Democrat party what she did for Michael.

Thanks in no small part to the Internet, the Kerry campaign and the DNC raised between them over $300 million from grass-roots donors. Kerry alone raised over $71 million from donors who contributed $200 or less. What's more, the DNC experienced a sevenfold increased in donors – skyrocketing from 400,000 in 2000 to the 2.7 million who contributed in 2004.

Would like to see how these numbers compare with Republican fund raining statistics.

Too late...you missed the dewy-eyed looks Kerry & Edwards were giving each other during the campaign (c8

[BigSkyFreeper]

I'm hoping the veer further to the left with Huff'n'Stuff's help.

[dfwgator]

How many votes did she get when she ran for California governor?

[mhx]

Huh. And I never thought I'd agree with Ariana about anything.

[No_Outcome_But_Victory]

So she's on our side after all? Only a fool or an operative of the Republicans would give Democrats advice to go left.

On the other hand she's probably just foolish :P

[dead]

Zsa Zsa ran to the left of Arnold in California, and got crushed.

So you can see where she'd conclude that a leftist tilt would help the Dems pick up some red states.

[RC20]

Pleeeeese, move more to the left.

[Paleo Conservative]

[subterfuge]

Yeah. Good idea. Do what the crazy foreign lady says.

[Capt. Tom]

Appears to me that Arianna won't like the "new" Hillary. - Tom

That Zsa Zsa really is quite entertaining isn't she. If they ever do a remake of Green Acres I'm sure she'll get the role that her sister once held. She sure as heck is never going to get very far in politics but I do hope they listen to her!

[FastCoyote]

You Go Girl! Tell them like it is Ariana! I just wish I had the KoolAid concession at their big meeting.

"How many votes did she get when she ran for California governor?"

More than Gary Coleman but fewer than Larry Flynt

[Moral Hazard]

"Putting aside for a moment the question of the party's soul and focusing entirely on hardball politics, running to the middle has been proven to be the single stupidest strategy the Democrats can pursue.

"As cognitive psychologist George Lakoff told me: "Democrats moving to the middle is a double disaster that alienates the party's progressive base while simultaneously sending a message to swing voters that the other side is where the good ideas are."

George Lakoff saying so = proof?
Well, we can see from Arianna's results in the Gubernatorial recall election how successful her strategies are.

[zbigreddogz]

Yah, no doubt.

I feel sorry for Michael Huffington. If I were married to that, I might have the temptation to turn gay too. Or to become a monk. Or SOMETHING that would allow me to leave her company.

[DoctorMichael]

This idjit was 'doing' a great Ter-ray-zuh before anyone realized who Ter-ray-zuh was..............ie. a heavy-accented, foreign woman who married into wealth and now feels completely free to tell normal Americans what they should be doing.

[Wings-n-Wind]

You go Arianna... You go...
