The Center

Sirota makes some good points concerning centrism in this piece. Extending this out a bit, here's somethings to consider;

1. Sirota is correct in that the center means different things for different people. For me, the center has always been the Constitution, yet the country has gone so far right that to be a centrist Democrat still puts one well to the right.

2. To find the center, one has to make a hard left, even perhaps risking the "moonbat" label, to even get close. In other words: The campus socialist is closer to the center than most centrist democrats.

I'm not here picking on Democrats, but last years speak volumes to this. How else does Lieberman even keep his DNC card?
