New Democrats must be consistent

July 18, 2001

Our position:Leaders of the Democratic Leadership Council sent a mixed message, appealing to, then inflaming the very voters they claim to want.

We desperately want your votes, but don't expect our respect in return. That's the unintentional message the Democratic Leadership Council sent to cultural conservatives this week.

The DLC, which wrapped up its national convention Tuesday in Indianapolis, portrays itself as a haven for moderates. And some of the rhetoric emanating from the Westin Hotel fit safely within that image.

For instance, Sen. Evan Bayh, the DLC's chairman, lamented the fact that Democrats are losing badly among married couples (60 percent of whom don't vote Democratic), those who attend church regularly (70 percent) and military personnel (80 percent). He said the party must begin addressing those folks' values.

Oh the DEm spinball is quite easily seen on things, from everything to Gary Condit being an elect XX year Republican, instaed of being an elect XX year Democrat which he is. to all other kinds of fun twists.

Its prolly seen more up here as the spin it is because we get to llok at it from the outside as a whole instead of being an american on the inside. The REpubs are good at spin.

But by far the best group for spin control are the pharamaceuticals.
