“Liberal enclave”

Those were the words used this morning by the Financial Times to describe the district which Nancy Pelosi, the likely new Speaker of the House, comes from.

You can’t help but wonder how the Republican base is going to either not vote or vote Democrat and allow the hard left wing of the country to take over. With Pelosi we’re not talking about moderate Democrats like Bill Clinton and Joe Lieberman that this country is use to. Republicans only need to look at what the new Democrat Party has done to its moderates like Lieberman, to see what is awaiting them.

Personally I think the Republican Party has done a terrible job in reminding people just who will take over for the Democrats and failed to use the ousting of Lieberman to their advantage. Unless people start figuring it out on their own, it’s going to be an interesting next two years.
