She's a repudiation of everything we've been working for since Howard Dean challenged the party establishment over the war.

I have wanted for the Democratic Party since I first voted in 1974 for a Democrat, Tom Eagleton, for the Senate in Missouri.
The biggest issue to me is whether the Democratic Party will be a center-left Party as it became under FDR (and even JFK and LBJ) or will be a center party, which I see as Republican-lite. that battle goes back to before Dean, although he was a great champion of FDR values.
We have a choice this time. I think the people are beginning to see it. The MSM annointed her, but the polls do not show strength.
Nothing against her personally, I just want a different direction for the Democratic Party and this country.

center. I woudl like to see the political continuum changed from what Reagan did to it. What was moderate conservative became the center, and what was extremism became government policy. We have yet to overcome Reaganism (and Bushism, its ideological heir). HRC won't do make real change.
