Reply #81: moore et al are populist threats to dnc power. of course moore's attacked

[kodi]

dont get all freaked out about the attacks on moore or other anti-war types by the quislings of the democratic center. they are just "bidnizz as usual types" who are threated by the influx of populists moore and howard dean brought into the party. the al from's of the democratic party see that their place at the feed trough will be taken from them if grass roots activism replaces his ilk; those who traffic in influence and power instead of doing the people's business.

they would attack moore even if he rose from the dead on the third day.

and the louder the cries, the closer moore is to the truth.

one thing i would mention is that any journalist writing on political matters has a personal agenda of promoting his/her career within the power structure under discussion, and some on the left participate actively in campaigns for politicians and as such they are not immune to making statments that fulfill subjective and personal needs rather than objective and impersonal national needs.

the likes of Matt Yglesias,Kevin Drum and Brad DeLong all will get a small gift in their christmas stocking over the next year from the centrists in the party, be it a consulting gig, some writing work, or even some intros to powerful people who can make the life of a journalist easier.

count on it. their allies have deep pockets and need mouthpieces on the left to hide their own whoring ways.
