Clinton Derangement Syndrome - Over at the liberal American Prospect: "This demonstrates not only a gross ruthlessness on the part of Clinton's campaign, but an astonishingly cavalier attitude towards the preservation of the progressive coalition. To be willing to blithely rip it to shreds in order to wrest a nomination that's not been fairly earned is not only low, but a demonstration of deeply pernicious priorities -- namely, it's an explicit statement that the campaign puts its own political success above the health of the party and the pursuit of progressive goals, and one can't but help assume that's exactly the attitude they would take towards governance, too."

Be fair. I think they summed up the Clinton ethos pretty well. The fact that the vast right wing conspiracy has been pointing this out for 16 years only shoes they are a slow learner, not that they are wrong.

A liberal criticizing Hillary Clinton, who is herself a liberal? Might I suggest... irony?
