162. Nick And I Come From Very Different Places
I think that the DLC basically have peaked already. They are still quite powerful, but I think their effect on the party was visible in Gore's blowout victory in 2000. I may be wrong, though. If Bush goes for 4 more years, besides me moving to Brazil, Hillary will be the DLC hooker and they may rise up again.

But it is important to remember that they have lots of connections and phone lists and that kind of crap. That's not to be overlooked when you are running for office.
