Two things we need to do in between now and 2014

We need to preemptively crush two candidates foe the election, Rahm E. and Cory Booker. Even if Clinton does not run (and we all know damned well she said she was not going to run in 2008), the emphasis will be on sopping up the soggy center, despite the fact that by now, it should be a foregone conclusion that the demos need to listen to, if not outright pander to, their base.

There is not much to stop Hillary from running and winning; too many people want her, despite the fact that I cannot understand how so many on the left think she is to the left of Obama. However, we can crush Rahm and Cory, especially as both are GOP in Dems clothing. This is dangerous, as the center will know they can offer shelter to all those right wing fools who know the GOP will not save itself.
