It would seem that something of this sort should be around to counteract the lies that are spread from CPAC.

(58,785 posts)in the slightest like that. We're the same people dominated by the same mainstream liberal ideals we've had all along. Stable, rational, progressive, liberal.
There are LW extremist nutcases, of course, but they're few and weak compared to our mainstream and to the extremist monster that's risen on the right. And most refuse even to pretend to be evil Democrats.

(25,242 posts)My thoughts were a Dem group that could meet. Get the media attention that CPAC has. Sane Dems speaking and offering up fact checks and the truth to counteract and refute the lies being told at CPAC.
Basically a Dem group that can set the record straight and get Dems from all parts of the country talking to each other and on the same page.

Even Sanders strikingly got "on the same page" given the imminent threat of the RW authoritarian revolution he inadvertently helped create.
