(15,435 posts)close and palsy/wowzy with Le Bushes? This is something that has gotten under my skin a lot! I've always known he was DLC, but he came in after Hillary lost the nomination in 2008 and helped Obama a lot. Neither Obama nor Hillary were my first choices back then, but I didn't think he was as DLC as he's turned out to be. AND, that's what I get for "thinking!"
I realize that Obama has gotten some good things done, given the disgusting way he's been treated by the Repukes from DAY ONE, but he's also more to the right than me on many issues that make me scratch my head. It's such a shame that Democrats have cozied up to Wall Street and are almost Repuke Light these days. Just too distressing for me to have to realize that the Party I joined so long ago is almost unrecognizable.
