Tom Daschle, Al Gore and now Bill Clinton have to get over their belief that a media conspiracy was behind the poor showing of Democrats in last month's election.

This week the former president told the Democratic Leadership Council that successful Republican candidates were aided by an "increasingly right-wing and bellicose conservative press" which was drowning out "an increasingly docile establishment press." (Full disclosure: According to a Fox News report, "he cited only the Wall Street Journal by name.") Calling conservative criticism of Sen. Daschle "unconscionable," Mr. Clinton railed that Republicans "have a destruction machine. We don't have a destruction machine."

The very same men who cuddled like sleeping babies in the protective fold of a fawning liberal mainstream press for a decade are now stomping a supermarket tantrum? Oh, this is just PRECIOUS! How cute!

I do not understand everyone's rush to give the Democrats good advice. I don't want them to improve their image. I like it that they are so blind they do not realize what they are exposing to us. It's past time for America to understand that the Left, the radical Left, has taken over the Democratic party.

Advice from the crook who is their #1 cause of self destruction. Perhaps , some day in the distant future, the RATS will curse Clinton's name and shun him for bringing their whole corrupt edifice down, but I'm not holding my breath.

Tom Daschle, Al Gore and Bill Clinton all have one thing in common here...they have all departedone way or the other as leaders of their party and it is killing them. As for Daschle’s assertion about people "aren't satisfied just to listen. They want to act because they get emotionally invested. ....isn’t that exactly what Tommy did when he tried with some success to tell the American people that extremists Republicans were trying to starve the children and kill old people? The Clintons and Carville are off the map in their spin, blame and whining. Loosers all and Soreloosers at that... aside from not being very bright!
