John McCain just moved to the LEFT of Hillary Clinton!
With his comments yesterday regarding the Iraq war, and his views on the administration, he positioned himself to the left of the Senator from NY.

She has no choice but to move left, a good thing for the country...and it will shut tweetie and fat Russert the hell up!!!

1. Tweety & Russert get paid to talk
I don't think this or anything else (beyond low ratings) will get them to shut the hell up.

4. Sure they have....
That's what they do for a living... They, talk, they spin, they try to find ways to exploit an arguement to support the view they want to portray. If it isn't Hillary's position, it would be someone else.

5. I don't thing ratings matter, Russert is GE's mouthpiece on
its house organ, NBC. MSNBC let Phil Donahue go despite his high ratings because he was against the Iraq war.

6. Correct me if I'm wrong...
but I thought McCain was positioning himself to the right of Bush. Have we come full-circle?

7. GOP is running a DLC ploy
They're triangulating - trying to cast McCain and DeWine as "reform" candidates within their own party.

It shows the utter futility of any Dems trying to defend the Iraq war.

10. That's the trouble with McCain...he moves in whichever direction the
wind is blowing and he sees as popular.
