A Vision for a Progressive Democratic Party (w/ Sen. Sherrod Brown)

9. It's obvious now that winning on a real Liberal agenda, which over and over again has been proven IS

what would win for them, is not what they want.

Those pulling the strings don't really care which party 'wins' so long as they have at least one and a half parties to push THEIR agenda.

Once you realize that, it so much less frustrating than when you actually thought they would listen to the voters.

It took us too long to figure it all out, giving them a real advantage.

However I do think they feel that advantage slipping now.

Sherrod Brown should keep on talking, we do need more than the two voices we have.

And then more of the Progressives who seem to have been silenced should also make sure they use their microphones.

Bernie and Warren have laid a foundation, now others can build on that. Until there is a tsunami of voices who are not just talking but who are acting to back up the talk.

We will be hearing a lot of 'populist' talk, much as they probably hate having to do it.

But talk is cheap and finally enough people get that. So it's going to take a whole lot more than speech writers.

They hate the Left, but need us to win. It's going to be interesting seeing how they figure out how to turn a Wall St insider into a populist Main St crusader, and a War Hawk into a proponent for peace.
