Like many liberal progressives, (yeah, I'm one of those ) I would rather see a candidate who wasn't such a middle of the roader but you takes what's you get.

Therein lies a problem. Decent Republicans like Lugar, Baker, Scowcroft, Simpson, John Warner, etc. have all bailed from the freak show that the party has become.

What's the Difference Between a Liberal and a Progressive?

Quote:
It seems to me that traditional "liberals" in our current parlance are those who focus on using taxpayer money to help better society. A "progressive" are those who focus on using government power to make large institutions play by a set of rules.
Very interesting differentiation. Now I am your side Bob but not regarding Mrs. Clinton. I am a Progressive Conservative.
