Clinton Taking a Different Course on Security Than Kerry
New York Daily News interviews Clinton.
Sen. Hillary Clinton lamented yesterday that Democrats booted security issues in last fall's election and urged her party to embrace the "different course" she's been pushing - or risk another four years of GOP rule.Meeting with Daily News editors and reporters, the New York Democrat said her party must "do a better job" of debunking Republican attacks that Democrats are soft on homeland security as well as national security issues like the Iraq war.
Without directly criticizing Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), the 2004 presidential candidate, Clinton argued that more Americans agree with Democratic values than with what she called the GOP's "extremist agenda."
"If you can't persuade a majority of people that you're going to be strong and tough where we need to protect America and our [national] interests, you can't cross the [electoral] threshold," she added.
Yep, she's a whole lot smarter than John Kerry. (Not that that's hard)
