because they honestly thought that's where the best place to get things done was - a guy like Daniel Patrick Moinihan comes to mind.

But others, like Hillary Clinton, just seem to do it out of political expedience, and that's what's so frustrating.

I could live with a DPM being presdient, or a leader of our party, because his principles were clearly rooted in the center. Others just seem to end up there so they don't have to be called names by the other side.
