46. Simply pointing out the New Dem/Third Way/DLC Clinton linkage is not hate...

Believe me, the New Dem/Third Way/ formerly Democrats for the Leisure Class may tolerate liberal social views, but on economic issues they are far from liberal and they are Hillary's friends and backers. They advocate entitlement reform, free trade and all the positions Hillary will return to after the primaries IF she wins the nomination.
