Buh bye now....
That is what the Democratic Party is saying to 2004 VP Candidate Joe Leiberman. Now that the Kidz have successfully ousted the Senior Senator from Connecticut they are looking for the next hawk.....Hillary Clinton.
"The same activists are now seeking to bend Senator Hillary Clinton to their anti-war side or face defeat in the Democratic presidential primaries. Her supporters are concerned that the “jihadist” left, galvanised by the victory of East Coast millionaire Ned Lamont, are on the rise in the Democratic party, starkly affecting its national electoral prospects. "
Well you have to give the Kidz credit - they aim high!
"Mike McCurry, White House press secretary during Bill Clinton’s presidency, said: “The very idea of centrism is under attack now in the party. We have our own loony left too.”
Too????? Mike - I hate to tell you this buddy, but you own the rights to the loony left! They are yours and yours alone!
I wouldn't worry about Mrs. Clinton though. She is the one that master the tactic of triangulation.
"Clinton quickly shored up her position on the left last week by telephoning Lamont to congratulate him on his victory and dropping $5,000 (£2,650) into his electoral coffers.
She also declared that “there is a great deal of difference” between her position on Iraq and Lieberman’s. Days before the primary vote, in a nifty use of her influence on the Senate armed services committee, she summoned Donald Rumsfeld, the defence secretary, and then demanded his resignation for mismanaging the war (a position Lieberman has not taken). "
See she's already working her way back to the left. Not a worry! Madam Hillary will survive. That is what she does best.
