Ah, yes. The dye-marker “I don’t believe in labels.” From a reader:
One other note on Obama that struck me watching him on MTP:
The only people that talk about wanting to “get past labels” are people who are uncomfortable with the label that obviously fits them. Obama is a liberal, with a 100% ADA voting record. One question I wish Russert had asked (how many times have I thought that!) was “name three occasions when you’ve broken with the liberal interest groups that control the Democratic party.” Sheesh, name one!
He’s not a moderate, and his is not a Third Way. It’s the same old liberalism, albeit intelligently and charismatically expressed.
