8. Ideologically, at least at the upper echelons
they share a lot in common.

Now as to why Clinton didn't, that is because Bill understood that the extreme in the neo con dream was just that, a wet Wilsonian dream.

But many of the folks at the upper levels of the DLC and the Neocon movement share school credentials, share drinking holes and share ideology.

The DLC beleives in free trade... never mind there is no such a thing... really

The DLC also believes the corporations have to have primacy over the unions.

And I am talking about the real upper echelons of the two movements

Granted, many more rational neocons have seen their dream partly frittered away by the true nutball extremists. But all of them believe in empire
