In reply to the discussion: Hillary, Third Way & Kos Who Attacks Third Way this Week but Thinks Hillary Will Reject Them! Oops!! [View all]sabrina 1
(62,325 posts)10. Well, we'll have to agree to disagree on that. He found it necessary to 'evolve'
on a couple of thngs since he posted his very first blog post in which he informed people of his opposition to abortion among other progressive views.
He worked for Henry Hyde, and airc, admitted that the ONLY thing he agreed with us liberals about was the Iraq War.
I was there when he told women, gays and minorities that their 'pet issues' (you know, like Civil Riights) was not going to be allowed to 'cause the Party to lose'.
He's as likely to flip flop on this as he has in the past on other stands he has taken.
He has banned more liberals from that site than can be counted.
But I DO agree that he is 'pragmatic' and sees the trend of the country now to the Left and 'winning' is everything to him, not issues.
