The children are fighting.

That would be the democrats. What will be the future of the democratic party? the MoveOn.org types or the Joe Lieberman types? The article is interesting to me in 2 ways. One is that no social issues are mentioned. The democrats are going to have the face the fact that they are too extreme on most social issues. Second, the article had this to say about Bill Clinton quoting David Sirota, an aggressive young party operative, writing in the American Prospect and the Nation.

"...Sirota also criticized Bill Clinton, whose "New Democrat" agenda was heavily influenced by the council's thinking. Clinton's "embrace of a big-business agenda arguably did as much long-term damage to the Democratic Party's moral platform as any of [his] … sex scandals or the battles over social issues," Sirota wrote."

The article also says this:

"During the 1990s, many liberals felt that Clinton abandoned class-conscious themes by supporting the North American Free Trade Agreement and a balanced federal budget."

So the question I have to ask is this, why is Bill and Hillary Clinton still the stars of the democratic party? No one can bring in more of a crowd or more money than these two. If the democrats feel that the Clinton team was not liberal enough then, my Republican friends, we have no worries. The democratic party is completely lost.
