There's no 'Clinton Curse' on the Democrats, they embraced him. They gave up what integrity they had to save him. They gave up whatever core beliefs they had to keep him in office. And this was all after Clinton had lost Congress to the pubbies in '94. which happend, because Clinton caused the 'RAT vote to decline and stimulated his opposition to come out.
Labor in '96 and '98 knew that Clinton stabbed them in the back with NAFTA, but they still backed him with a $100 and massive campaign help. Clinton paid off by not enforcing Beck, then again, neither Bush has enforced Beck.
The feminists all donned knee-pads to service Slick. The gave up everything they believed in, they gave up sexual harassment completely. In fact, the promulgated the new 'one free grope' doctrine and attacked the rape victim to protect the rapist. They did this all for the non-existent threat to abortion.
Lani Guinier was the first black stabbed in the back by President Clinton, but wasn't the last. Jocelyn Elders was tossed overboard and Ron Brown is resting in peace. In return, they got Clinton to play the sax on Arsenio. Talk about selling yourself for a mess of pottage.
The point is, they all knew what was happening. They walked into it with eyes wide open. They sold themselves just to keep Bill Clinton personally in office. Personal power for Bill Clinton was Clinton's only goal. Can you betray people, who know what is happening and go along with it?
This election was a result of reality finally catching up to clintonism. Clinton the juggler could keep all the balls up in the air, but only if he is doing the juggling. He turned the juggling over to McAuliffe, who used to be the sad clown and couldn't make the transition to jovial juggler. He became just a mean oaf.
I just wish we could vote on the media. They're totally complicit in keeping the juggling psychopath in power and extended that trick another two years with the 2000 elections.
These next two years are going to be very interesting politically. Will the saner parts of the 'RAT party see that the Republicans aren't the threat that they've be told? Will they wake up and increase the GOP majorities in two years? Will the media ever wake up?
I believe that is precisely what has been happening and will continue to happen. The people are beginning to see democrats AND the media for what they are. 9-11 and George Bush's staunch leadership and character provided the epiphany. I also think Hillary will have to move to the right to maintain any viablility and she is incapable of faking it like her chameleon husband.
Not likely. The bias is so deeply ingrained that the liberal cheerleaders in the mass media are incapable of even recognizing it.
