Calling a liberal postion 'moderate' doesn't make it so
Aside from the fact that this article completely misreads the dynamic of the race for the 2008 Republican presidential nomination-poll numbers or not, Mitt Romney is poised to be the candidate conservatives rally behind as the most viable option to Rudy Giuliani and John McCain- there is something else that bugs me about it.
Why is it that liberal positions are so regularly described- not only in the MSM, but even in specialty publications like The Hill- not as 'liberal,' but as 'moderate?'
There is nothing moderate about Rudy Giuliani's positions on abortion and issues relating to homosexuality, which are well to the left of the American people generally.
