More and more I view this 'third party' within our own party to be even more of a threat to this country than Republicans. Democrats have always been able to keep Republicans at bay re SS, even their hero George Bush was sent home when the Left came out in droves to put a stop to his attempt to privatize SS.
This is a sneak attack and as such more more threatening to Democratic ideals. I guess they became impatient after so many decades of failing to achieve their goals.
But this Wall St invention, the Third Way, has speeded up the process at an alarming rate, to the point where we are seeing the propaganda, that, if it were still coming from Republicans would be slapped down on Democratic forums, actually being taken somewhat seriously here and the proposals to cut SS incredibly, being defended.
Imo, the first order of business to thoroughly expose this scam and then identify their candidates and do whatever it takes to remove them and/or prevent them from getting elected to our party.
