When Conservatives Heart Clinton...America Has Moved Left

There's a whole lot of stupid coming from the right these days. Take, for example, conservative radio host Michael Reagan with CNN anchor Kiran Chetry on Tuesday morning. Reagan echoed Rush Limbugh's argument that President-elect Obama's selection of Hillary Clinton is a bow to the right, and that it has "liberal websites" like Daily Kos up in arms.
Of course, anyone who bothers to check the facts knows that claim is simply not true. Moreover, underscoring his ignorance, Reagan can't even pronounce 'Daily Kos' (Kos rhymes with dose, not sauce):
Here's the deal: we won, and they are declaring victory.
In the same breath that they are saying that this is a center-right nation, conservatives like Limbaugh and Reagan are highlighting the appointment of Hillary Clinton as a victory for the right.
In 1998, they were impeaching Bill Clinton. Now they are claiming Hillary as one of their own.
The center has shifted....to the left.
