'i wonder if you were ever a real progessive centre left politician'


oh please, like clinton of all people would be questioning anyone else's progressive centre left bona fides.

that whole end speech with clinton in blair's kitchen was absurd

the screenwriter clearly thinks way too highly of clinton

I winced at that line too. I completely agree. Clinton ran as, an acted as, a centrist moderate. Neither men were left-of-centre progressives. Christ by 2003 Blair was a fully fledged right-winger.

I agree. Clinton was never a progressive liberal. Both Clintons represent the Wall Street-corporate-wing of the Democratic Party.
