Markos Moulitsas, more popularly known for his blog DailyKos, may become more popularly known for his amnesia of the Clinton years.

Hillary Clinton leads her Democratic rivals in the polls and in fundraising. Unfortunately, however, the New York senator is part of a failed Democratic Party establishment -- led by her husband -- that enabled the George W. Bush presidency and the Republican majorities, and all the havoc they have wreaked at home and abroad. Of course, it's still early.

Of course, it's still early, but Moulitsas's conclusion that Bill Clinton is at the center of a failed Democratic Party is intellectually retarded. Setting aside President Bill Clinton balancing the budget and delivering record surpluses, Moulitsas and his friends seem to have forgotten that it was Al Gore who lost to George W. Bush in 2000 for chosing not to run on the well documented successes of the Clinton Gore Administration. The hard loss in 2000 has finally brought Moulitsas and his friends full circle with the blame Clinton fruit cups on the right.
