Bill Clinton was elected in 1992 NOT because he won over the nation's intellectual heart by turning moderate. He won in 1992 for a single reason: Ross Perot split the GOP vote with Bush the Elder.
But for that split, we would never have heard of Clinton and the DLC again.
Democrats learned the wrong lesson from 1992 -- to go corporate. Hillary made that mistake in 2008, and she's making it again now.
We Democrats should never have abandoned our blue-collar, New Deal roots.
We needed another FDR in 2008. I thought we had it in Obama.
Boy, was I wrong.
