Reply #2: Hillary Rove-ham Clinton strikes again...! [View All]

Now she's using the same meme Republicans have directed against every Democratic candidate in the last forty years. One that was used against her husband, and one that will certainly be used against her, should she become the nominee.

Why does this matter? Doesn't every candidate take swipes at their opponent's character and positions? Yes, but not in this way. By joining in the Republican "liberal, liberal, liberal" meme, HRC is reinforcing the notion that being liberal or progressive is something shameful, something that must be covered up. ("I'm not a liberal, I'm a moderate!") By reinforcing that meme, Hillary is aiding the Republicans in their fight against us in November -- because you can count on them using the "too liberal" label against whichever Democrat is the nominee. And, thanks to Hillary joining in on the fun, she helps cement in the public mind the shamefulness of being liberal...which will only help the Republicans come November, even against her.
