I agree with this. I think this is a prime opportunity for American liberalism to take the steps necessary to move left of center. I think HRC will fight for it, but I think she also knows when to make a deal, as change doesn't happen overnight.
Why do we think Hillary is such an ardent liberal again? I mean, I love the Clintons as much as anyone (still do) but there is no way his presidency was liberal. And we can blame the GOP congress for a lot of it, but there were still 2 years of total Democratic rule during which the economy was saved (yay!) and lots of progressive causes were dashed upon the rocks. (wah.)
Anyway, her Senate work has not been the stuff of New Liberal World Order or even Old Liberal World Order or rarely even Liberal...
