Anti-Hillary Boycott Is Underway

Some Manhattan Democratic clubs are launching a backlash against Sen. Hillary Clinton amid some of her recent shifts toward the right. Once a liberal favorite, Clinton is being shunned in her reelection bid by four local Democratic groups furious over her vote in favor of the Iraq war, her antigay marriage position and her newly cozy relationship with conservative media mogul Rupert Murdoch.

The defections among the activist left of the city's Democratic Party — long considered a loyal chunk of Clinton's political base — suggest that her recent rush to the political middle ground and beyond may exact a price.

She has called abortion "a tragic choice," sponsored a bill to make flag-burning a crime, pushed for a crackdown on violent video games and continues to supported the war in Iraq.
