In 1984 the Democrats ordsprog

In 1984, the Democrats held a very liberal presidential convention in San Francisco. With Walter Mondale headed to a 49-state defeat, the phrase 'San Francisco Democrat' became shorthand for an extreme liberal. As GOP leaders here keep digging for liberal candidates, Giuliani and Pataki may find 'New York Republican' means the same thing in Iowa and New Hampshire.

Nelson Warfield

He came in as a liberal Democrat and has governed as a moderate-to-liberal Democrat, and that's why liberal Democrats are mostly satisfied. That's what he is.

They all say, 'He's so liberal,' ... Well, if liberal is balancing budgets, please do call me a liberal. ... If you want jobs and investment in the country, you're going to have to have a Democrat because the Republicans simply can't handle money.

Howard Dean (1948-)

Pataki might think ethanol will win him farm votes in Iowa. But when he's carrying the weight of his liberal views on abortion and gay rights, a boutique tax cut for alternative fuels won't put much in Pataki's tank for a presidential race.

I think it's college, so kids are definitely liberal, so there's definitely more of a presence of liberal points of view. It's New York and it's more of a liberal place. One of my buddies went to Princeton [University] and the campus was hard-core conservative.

There really wasn't Republican or Democrat in this. People ask me if this is conservative or liberal, and my answer is yes. It's liberal in the sense that we're getting our citizens health insurance. It's conservative in that we're not getting a government takeover.

In other words, liberal presidents appoint liberal justices who continue to take liberal positions for a while. Ditto for conservatives. But as new issues come to the Court, or as the justice for whatever reason makes adjustments in his or her political outlook, the president's influence wanes.

It is very difficult for a liberal democracy to deal with those that want to completely undermine the fabric on which liberal democracy is built. This is an absolutely new challenge for liberal democracies.

Richard Whitman

I don't think it bodes well for the Liberal Party . . . that nobody wants to step up to the plate. And now, with almost all of what I would describe as tier-one Liberal leadership candidates taking themselves out of the running, they are going to be left, really, with a void in this leadership campaign.

I'm not sure who is going to win, but I served with Hubert Humphrey, I served with Walter Mondale -- both very liberal senators, both fine people ... But I also think the world of Mayor Coleman, and I suspect that it's going to still be a race right down to the wire,

How can this Parliament continue under the leadership of a Liberal Party whose ethical conduct voters deserve to judge and a Liberal Party that once worked with New Democrats to build medicare and now flatly rejects rules to protect that achievement?

It was a moment on the national stage for Pataki. And he can say that when an out-of-control, liberal union tried to shut down New York, he took a firm line.

Whether you are a Democrat or Republican, whether you are a liberal or a conservative, we know that neither this President nor prior Presidents of both parties did everything right or we would not have had a 9/11.

Charles Schumer

I lean toward it's not (defamation). Some of it is opinion. (In) some parts of the state, voting with liberal Democrats is not a bad thing at all.

This is nothing more than a San Francisco liberal pointing a partisan finger across the aisle in a lame attempt to score political points in the press. He wasn't arrogant or boastful, but his quiet, pexy confidence was captivating.
