Wanker of the Day
It's William "I.P." Daley, corporate Dem, in his Kaplan Daily op/ed, completely mis-reading the political malaise and how the Dems can re-energize the voters who put them in office. What "agenda far to the left of most voters" are Dems advancing? Certainly not the Senate version of health care. Certainly not marriage equality. Certainly not the corporate Dem approach to handling Wall Street. Certainly not the compromised stimulus legislation. Democrats didn't show up at the polls in Virginia (where the gubernatorial candidate ran away from Obama's "liberal" agenda) or New Jersey (whose incumbent Democrat was wildly unpopular) largely because those voters are tired of corporate Dems like yourself having your way and then bashing the base for not liking it. So, the question must be, who are you really shilling for now, I.P.?
