Howard Dean in the 2004 campaign; Al Gore as the effective leader of the Loyal Opposition; and now Barack Obama challenging the tired and decadent national
security establishment — these are the first true voices of 21st century politics.
If you believe supporting the Iraq war for five years was right; that America is
safer under Bush; and that special-interest lobbyists are the heart of America
who do not buy laws with money, Hillary Clinton, the leader of the old establishment,
is your girl (as she said).
Horsehockey!
Brent is talking about The Way Things Oughta Be.
Logic dictates we talk about The Way Things Are – it’s called reality.
Dean tried and he lost. Gore tried and he lost.
They didn’t know how to win – even with the Big Dog’s blueprints.
Obama might be great someday, but this isn’t his year.
And as long as sticking to reality isn’t required,
why don’t we dig up and run FDR?
