An open challenge to all supporters: compare your candidate to Clinton
rtsp://video.c-span.org/jdrive/smil/clint052303.smi

This is a very long video of Clinton talking about his presidency. He covers a lot of territory. He talks about the danger of SH. He talks about how all Democrats now believe that Keynes is right and that you defecit spen when the economy is bad. He gives an argument for progressive taxation. And he describes what it takes to win an election.

I challenge anyone willing to spend almost 2:40 hours reaquainting themselves with Clinton's world views to identify where their candidates are similar to Clinton.

I bet there are some candidates running this year who would have a hard time finding common ground on three of the dozens of issues Clinton covers.

1. Listening
nice to see him mentioning the Lawrence vs. Texas decision.

I like his statement

I spend more time explaining things then arguing things

2. Clinton...the greatest magician around
He covered up that Waco mess without a backlash from the public.

How bout we set the bar higher this time around. I can't deal with another Clinton.

3. If that's all you got out of this video...
...then saying you can't deal with another Clinton doesn't carry much weight.
