But this addresses nothing. Are you really just going to cross you arms and shake your head? Are you offering a mood or an argument? All I see is snideness: it's almost as there's nothing to address. It's like a boo in a dark crowded room. What to respond to?

Clark is no compromise. He is not a radical. He has progressive political views. He is a Democrat who was foolish enough to not hate Reagan back in the day. He is not perfect, but he's one of us.

Dean is not perfect, but he's one of us. Same, believe it or not, of the rest of the crowd: Kerry, Edwards, Kucinich, etc. None of them are advocating another war, or cutting taxes, or mowing down education.

In fact, each of them is racing to distance themselves from Bush. Except for Dean, who triangulates on gun control, apeing Republican positions for Democratic gain is dead. Even Lieberman speaks of Iraq is harsh tones now.

I mean, I really just don't get it. Why is anything but Dean or Kucinich a compromise?
