If so, why?
I'm curious because this is the sentiment of one of my trusted politico relatives.

They are as leftist as a neocon is leftist. Which means they are not at all leftist. Kucinich is the only one that resembles a true lefty.

No, not possible to be farther left than Hillary.
Golden, do some research. The vote "for" the war was nearly unanimous in both houses. Patriot act also. Only afterwards did we start hearing "I was for the war before I was against it!".

No. Because there are few who really know what Hillary's positions are. I think she is better practiced at hiding her left tendencies than anyone else running.

Based on what I've seen, I think they're about the same. But of course, that is just what they let the cameras see.

Left as in liberal...yes. Left as in socialistic....no (there IS a difference, though the distinction is blurring within the US).

This question, and almost all the answers to it, illustrate how far our political language has been degraded.

absolutely. ms clinton started out as a republican. she voted for the war. she voted for the patriot act. not very liberal in my book.

Obama is a naive socialist....Hillary is a leftist beast.

I think of them as both being in the center.
