All this BS about "liberals" is simply myth. The real power in the Democratic party is centrist. Howard Dean was defeated by the centrists, remember? By a landslide. Yes, the anti-war liberals provide a nice activist base, but you guys are running against the strong smart mainstream, not some fringe group. Also, moderates will put Kerry in power, not liberals.
Remember, Michael Moore is not a Democrat. In fact, his film is very harsh on democrats. Kerry has had nothing to do with him either though he may be glad people are seeing the film. I personally heard Kerry put down "goo-goo eyed liberals". He has changed over the years and is quite centrist now.
Also, only Bush-Cheney could make liberals back in style again. "Liberal" is becoming a badge of honor on the left thanks to the cacophony of Bushie lies and rightwing propaganda.
People are just sick of the same old BS from the right. Limbaugh and Hannity for instance cannot go 20 seconds without a big lie trying to deceive people. It's like a disease that's infected the GOP. They actually believe cheaters and liars win. After Florida I guess they learned the wrong lesson. The GOP needs anti-biotics. They need to clean house and appoint new leadership for the future, more honest moderate leadership. Or the best side of Reagan, not the dark side types like DElay and Cheney. The GOP's new leaders should include McCain, Hagel, Lindsay Graham, Romney, Drier, and no more Bushes of corrupt southerners on the dole from polluters, gougers and Halliburton types preying on our treasury and consumers. |
