I know what you mean about IWR and Patriot Act.
But on a lot of issues they are basically moderate liberal.
My point was that by not running away6 from that label they at least would be acknowledging it as a legitimate political position.
By making the term radioactive they are continuing to help to marganilize the term. Kerry's gymnastics about it is especially sickening to me.
The whole point of ABB is basically to set the US on a more balanced course and reverse the tide of ultra conservatism. The right wing understands this, and are already using it against kerry. So he has nothing to gain by denying it.
