Democrats Say Rice Misled About Iraq War

I agree with you - but that is not going to happen - and sadly so. Most of America will embrace the far religious right before they will the godless far left. Sad - but apparently very true. So, I think embracing the far left as the agenda of the D party is political suicide. Look at Clinton - he was wildly popular because he was a moderate - perhaos more so in the beginning - and he knew how to win the war instead of the battle. I will grant you he was not perfect, but he was better than anything we have now and I would take him back in a minute. And he got in office by staying in the middle with his voting record (rhetoric does not interest me), at least how that was defined then. Carter and Kennedy as well. Johnson was a little more liberal with the Civil Rights Act, but he was hardly what I would call a screaming liberal.

I also think the D's have got to figure out a way to discredit Fox News AND have the public care that it has been discredited. I am unsure how it will do that short of a Rather esq. scandal.

Anyway - food for thought.
