MSNBC - Democrats try to soften edges

Gore gets censored

So the word is out: the liberal wing of the party is being told to avoid any harsh rhetoric. That could already be affecting tonight's headliners: last night, Al Gore's speech was basically torn up, according to two sources, and is now being rewritten, presumably to fit more closely with the party line.

My disgust at the silencing of anti-war rhetoric is eased by the delightful irony of seeing Al Gore get censored. But since when did Al Gore ever represent the "iberal wing" of the Democratic Party?!?
