Here are two to begin with

Title: Progressive Democrats and Greens should form a coalition.
excerpt: "Of course if that fails, then the progressive Democratic-Green coalition can front it's own presidential candidate as well as it's own platform."

Title: I think people disagree on DLC strategy because of where they stand.
Thread: DLC and CAFTA
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=1964233&mesg_id=1964372

For example, I do not view the DLC as the centrist wing of the party. I view them as the right wing of the party. I view the Progressive Caucus as the left wing of the Party. And I view the entire party as centrist when averaged out.

So, from my perspective, why would I support a right-winger, even if he won the Dem primary? I would vote Green/Independent/Socialist/non-Dem in that particular race or not vote at all.

I don't know about purging these guys just yet, but I do think that on this issue, just enough of them voted against the Democrats to let CAFTA pass. I wonder if they were told to by corporate sponsors. And I think they need to be watched closely with votes so that we all can make the decision of whether or not to keep them together as citizens of the Dem party.

This is why I have done the 3 analyses so far. It's data for us.
