to anyone watching back in the '80s that the entire DLC crew were just Republicans with a bit more style?

McAuliffe's on-air fellatio of FoxNews shouldn't surprise anyone.

jdfu!

I was appalled and dismayed also. This is not what I want from my party or a candidate from my party. I wrote the following "suggestion" to the Clinton campaign in the absence of Terry's direct email:

I have been a lifelong Democrat and will always vote that way. I have lived in Alabama and Tennessee for the last nine years and saw first-hand the harm that Republicans do to, not only Democratic candidates, but to the truth. It was shocking then to see this campaign's manager, Terry McAuliffe, PRAISE the bullhorn of Republican thought-FOX NEWS for calling the Pennsylvania primary for Clinton first.

I don't know what compelled him to go on the Fox News network and provide such a positive sound-bite that they are now using in promotional spots! If this campaign thinks that by complementing the network that bases it's entire news on smearing democrats, or anyone that doesn't believe in their version of patriotism, then Terry McAuliffe and, by extension Hillary Clinton are more out of touch than I had previously thought.

I have supported Hillary and Democrats through some tough times. I have always held my head proud to be democrat. But I can not, and will not, support this campaign as it panders to the very groups that have made it their political mission to discredit the Democratic Party.

Shame on you Terry for such a weak display boot licking. And shame on you Hillary for being the only Democrat in my memory that used the politics of fear on another Democrat! DO NOT RUIN THIS PARTY THAT I LOVE!

God only knows what The Clintons and Clintoncrats will do next, this gets weirder and weirder.

However, the dem party will be just fine, and Barack Obama WILL win the presidential election in '08. There is no doubt the republican party is greatly diminished after 7 plus years of GWB and war war war. I don't think McPAIN stands a snowballs chance in hell of winning the presidency. He is a lousy public speaker, really SO BAD, he is frigging old, he can barely give a press conference. The numbers just aren't there for him.

The dem party has needed a good shaking out for a long long time. It is stunning the Clintons and McAullife could conduct themselves in this way, courting repugs, wooing FOX NEWS!!!

Holy shit! who ever thought we would see this day?? But fellow dems, we need to see it or we can't fix it. I care less, CARE LESS, about Hellary's rabidly feminest supporters or potentially 'white working class' closet racists voting for McPAIN when Hill and Bill are denied the dem nomination, as they most certainly will be. Those voters are easily replaced and outnumbered by the many new dems Barack has brought into the process.

The dem party is evolving and reinventing itself before our eyes, IT IS PROGRESSIVE to do so. At the end of this grueling election process we will see it has all been for the best even if we are chewing our nails and and how much we are agonizing now.

"The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew."

...That "called" Florida for Bush in 2000 first on the basis of a Bush cousin who worked in Fox's election coverage saying, "Jebbie says they got it". This should set off all kinds of red flags about how the PA primary was conducted. I have heard that the exit polls on Tuesday afternoon were showing Obama leading by 5%. This should be a call for a recount or investigation of the results! Exit polling is the gold standard of election verification in most of the rest of the civilized World. Here, the MSM just winks and says "got it wrong again (hehehe)". I think there's a very good chance there were voting machine shenanigans in PA. How does Obama out raise Clinton 3 to 1 and still lose by almost 10% (the double digit victory was also an exaggeration, it was more like 9.3% (thanks, network rounding).

Come on people, we know Fox"news" makes the news up as they go along just for ratings. More blood, more sex, more violence, that is what Fox is all about. Remember, Rupurt Murdoch invented Star Mag.
Do you believe the news in that magazine??? Why should Fox"news" be any different than Star who Mr. Murdoch owns both Star and Fox. Make Fun Of Fox"news", People! It is a moral imperative!
