A Clinton Democratic Party?

Blogger and journalist Stephen Pizzo http://www.stephen.pizzo.com/ wrote an interesting piece about the rumor that the Clinton's are by-passing the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and building their own Democratic party. Here is what he wrote

"I heard the other day that the Clintonians, led by that little sycophant Rham Emmanuel, are setting up their own parallel DNC in order to cut the Dean wing out of the 08 action and thereby triangulate Hillary into the top spot on the 08 ticket. . If this is true it needs to get more attention than it has so far. Because if Hillary is the Dem choice in 08 we get at least 4-more years of GOP rule."

I have heard the same rumblings as we start looking past the 06 election and eyes are turning to the presidential contest in 08. (of course former Clintonista Harold Ickes launched a data warehouse in competition with the DNC voter turnout efforts several months ago as a profit making companyparty funded by billionaire George Soros. So, Dean has sniper fire coming from all directions).

In fact, it's not just the Clinton's who are at odds with Howard Dean as head of the Democratic Party. I have been amazed at how divided Democrats are over the direction the party should take to beat the GOP. On my radio show callers representing several sides of the Dem party, call in and regularly bash each other. (My show- "Dr. Politics" on WOI Public Radio http://www.woi.org/Stream.html Live Monday's at 9-10 a.m. Central time, http://www.woi.org/archive.html scroll down for archives of selected programs).

The Clinton faction now also seems potentially pitted against the Gore machine. Al Gore is suddenly very visible and many of us are hearing that he may be a stealth candidate for 2008 - talkin' environment, goin' on MTV Music Awards, writing a book and producing a film, but really building a new political persona for a comeback.

In Iowa, Hillary and Senator Edwards have led the polls for the 08 slot. Sen. Joe Biden may qualify for Iowa in-state tuition he's been here so often!

McCain is the lead Republican today with a big surprise, Mayor Rudy Guiliuani also doing well! Of course, Condoleeza Rice was way ahead of all the other Republicans for 08 in another recent poll - she's not running but she's hot!

Stay tuned. It's gonna be a long, crowded and expensive 2 years till 08!

Who are YOU excited about?
