Anti-war drumbeat dividing Democrats
Democrats’ demands for a speedy military pullout from Iraq threaten to raise the soft-on-national-security issue and could hurt the party’s chances in next year’s elections, political analysts say. Recent Democratic troop withdrawal initiatives in Congress, followed by a direct pullout call from Democratic National Chairman Howard Dean, have not only widened a split over the war among Democrats, they have raised fears among party operatives that the “get out of Iraq now” posture will help the Republicans keep control of Congress next November.
SOme of the Donks are starting to wake up a bit and realize just how far out into left field the moonbat Deaniac/Franken/Moore/Streisand wing of the party has traveled. They’ve moved so far out, that they are starting to leave that part of their base that were known formerly as the “Reagan Democrats” far, far, behind.
The whole question is what they will be able to do about it in time to do them any good. The Chief would guess not much, since the left-Lib wing has become so entrenched in control of the DNC party apparatus.
It couldn’t happen to a more deserving crew.
