The 50 state strategy.

[ProSense]

I can't wait until Democrats organize and vote in more progressive/populist who get to Congress and realize that it takes compromise to pass legislation.

A good example is the recent spending bill that Feingold voted against and Kerry voted for.

Spending is good right?

Where are the heroes of 2006: Tester, Webb, and others?

Al Franken was hailed by some as the next progressive champion. He voted for the health care bill.


Governing is not ranting.

Because otherwise the hypocrisy would be monumental.

2. The 50 state stategy did mean bringing in more blue dogs

as there are states a liberal simply will never win in.

3. Moving the ball forward

I'll be interested, in the end, if Russ and Bernie and Al do vote for the final bill. There are many that are trying to figure out if something better comes out of conference. The only way to find out is to pass this version.

4. Tester and Webb,,

will be causing progressive more problems in the future..
