Playing for keeps: progressive strategy

Thanks to a brief intro on DailyKos that caught my eye, here is the latest rendition by our gurus, the NDN gang of Simon Rosenberg and Peter Leyden (the rest of the NDN gang is Joe Garcia), of their vision of the future. It's like 1932, and we're embarking on a half-century of government by the good guys. Check out their article in Mother Jones.

We will be required to work like dogs (quoting Debbie Wasserman Schultz) to win the elections along the way, but otherwise the cards are stacked in our favor.

To learn more details, drop in on the ndn.org web site and be prepared to stay and study for a while.

And if you are dubious about their guru status, I refer you to "The Argument," the recent book by Matt Bai, about progressive politics since the '04 election.
