The Iraq War
No Child Left Behind
NAFTA and TPP
Criminal justice reform
gay marriage
The individual mandate
Drivers licenses for illegal immigrants
ethanol subsidies
But other than that, not much.

Wondering if someone is in the process of trying to put a skid chain on certain people's tongues before they possibly can cause more damage. Over-generalizations do little to help any candidate or the Democratic Party in general.

(796 posts)The most damning is "Hillary Clinton Hasnt Changed a Single Position in Her Entire Career". Would I want anyone who never learned, never re-evaluated?
It is an absurd 'recommendation'. I commend politicians who can change their minds.
I routinely reply to Dem fund-raising letters---Lanny Davis has to go.

Why are we watching faux news clips on the Democratic Underground?

(23,664 posts)The smarmiest, sleaziest, slimiest creep that ever slithered out from under some rock in the Potomac. Everybody I've talked to who actually knows who he is, finds him utterly repulsive.
But he may know where the bodies are buried, so they have to keep him on.
Are they so out of touch that they think this guy can help?

(7,417 posts)Very unatttractive spokesperson - very 90's or beyond. The whole yelling and talking over thing is dead and facts are facts.

(13,297 posts)Does no one any good to have that person speaking for anyone on any Democratic issue

(7,964 posts)the party is over. "Smarmy" is the word invented to describe Lanny Davis-I cannot stomach him for a second. There is no way he is a true friend. If they can't see it-I can't save them.

(34,589 posts)A total loon. I think the only time I've ever heard Tom Ashbrook (On Point, NPR) get angry at a guest was when Lanny was on the show. Tom got totally fed up with his talking over people and his utter disconnect from reality.

(711 posts)Not from any kind of socialism. The rich people who benefited from a corrupt tax administration are now leaving the middle class to pay for their crimes. The devil is in the details, but often not as clearly as here.

(16,916 posts)Even if it were true (and it aint!) that Clinton has been consistent in her message, Davis should think for a sec before opening his lawerly face hole.
A person doesn't have to "go left" unless their default position is somewhere to the right...
