Per today’s Note (regarding last night’s Democratic debate):
Now we’ve got it straight. Sen. Hillary Clinton is a flip-flopping, record-sealing, war-in-Iran-voting, Social-Security-ducking, politically calculating, lobbyist-loving, polarizing and unelectable Democrat who acts like a Republican — and a Clinton.
Yup. Pretty much. Although maybe less with the “acts like a Republican” than the others. Let’s hope that the top tier of Democratic contenders is able to prevent “presumptive” and ultimately “nominee” from being able to be used to describe her in 2008.
Well, she’ll take it from both sides on this one. Clearly, the Republicans relish the thought of a head-to-head with another Clinton. But some Democrats are opining that Hillary’s little better than a neocon.
“maybe” less with the “acts like a Republicanâ€? I don’t hear any Republicans even pretending to care about health care for all Americans, strengthening the middle class, or fighting global warming.
