Hillary and Murdoch

I got a laugh from this editorial in the Boston Globe about the new relationship between Hillary Clinton and Rupert Murdoch. Just four paragraphs in Godwin's Law was brought to the forefront:

Politics may make strange bedfellows, but for sheer cynicism and mutual expediency it's hard to beat this alliance. Maybe the Hitler-Stalin pact.

Attitudes like this from Robert Kuttner almost guaranty a Republican in the White House in 2008. Heaven help any Democrat who tries to be a centrist or walk in Harry Truman's footsteps. Never mind that is where most of the voters reside - a Democrat will have to be hard left or have no traceable positions at all to make it through the gauntlet of Kuttner and his ilk come the primaries. That will guaranty a loss in the general election come November of 2008.
