24. The problem is they keep changing the concept of the "center"
Clinton moved to the center when he ran and governed from the center, IMHO. However, with the radical right lurch of the current misadministration, Clinton seems like a flaming liberal. For us to move to the "center", as the DLC recommends would be to become conservatives. The only one of our candidates that I can say is liberal is Kucinich. He does not appear near as liberal as some of the past Democratic candidates. I'd say that we should stay where we are and not slouch towards conservatism. Just glancing at some of the polls on what US citizens think about issues shows that we are the center.
