But there is the issue; there is no big tent in the Democratic party and it is not just the blogosphere.
The GOP has pro choice national level figures. The GOP has people with concerns over the war, drilling in ANWR and equal rights for gays as regards marriage.
Right now, with this race, Hillary is on notice, being the lone national level Democrat who is not vigorously anti-war.
I am no ideological purist, I support the big tent, and I really do have a problem with the liberal blogosphere's decision to emphasize this race at such an extreme point when there are competitive races all over the country that should receive more attention (and I'm sick of the knee-jerk criticism of the DLC on liberal sites). Still, I am also tired of Lieberman's decision to criticize the party more than support it. We need to rebuild the Democratic brand so that the party can make gains in this election and in the future and Lieberman's tactics do not do that.
