A Big That-A-Boy To Markos

I keep hearing everybody say that Hillary will be the 2008 Democrat candidate, and while she might get it, it won't be with my vote. Markos from Daily Kos has an op-ed in the WaPo that is right on the mark.

(The Other WaPo)On the war, Clinton's recent "I disagree with those who believe we should pull out, and I disagree with those who believe we should stay without end" seems little different from Kerry's famous "I actually did vote for the $87 billion before I voted against it" line. The last thing we need is yet another Democrat afraid to stand on principle.
Which is something you can't say about Sen. Feingold. I don't dislike Hillary, but I do feel she is part of the larger group that has led Democrats back to middle on everything. Part of the group that backs down from liberal views because Republicans won't like it but forgets about what their own base wants.
