Eleanor Clift supports former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean's bid to head the Democratic National Committee. Clift claims that Dean is really a "centrist" a la former President Bill Clinton. If Dean is a centrist, then the Democrat Party is further left than even I thought it was. (OK, that's a lie -- I always knew exactly how far left the Democrat Party is.)
If Democrats want to move back toward the center and become a viable majority party again may I suggest someone in the mold of a Sen. Joe Lieberman. He probably doesn't want the job, and there aren't many left in the Democrat Party in his mold.
It will certainly be interesting to see who the Democrats choose.
