Barnie Frank on Chris Matthews Hardball

Apparently he had several op-eds and was interesting to listen to him yesterday

http://www.msnbc.com/hardball

It is the second story. I don't know how to better pinpoint it.

He said that Hillary was always the liberal in the Clinton Administration. That Paul Krugman, in 2008 said that she was to the left of Obama on domestic issues.

That for the Republicans - like Cruz - who claim that Hillary has "moved left" to compete with Sanders is ridiculous.

Again, in the eyes of RWers/Conservatives/Libertarians and the general GOP party, LIBERALISM is a "dirty" word.

Hillary has been left, if anyone was pulled left it would be Warren all the way from a Republican.
