(62,325 posts)certainly did and as a result, KEPT the Progressive Democratic seats in Congress. And this is what I mean.
Without that mobilization Dems would have lost even more seats.
And what is the 'far left', another Third Way/Republican term for Democrats who support SS NOT being privatized eg, who oppose Cheney's Foreign Policies etc.
To me, as a Progressive Democrat, it means those who opposed the Iraq invasion, who oppose Heritage Foundation policies on the privatization of Social Programs etc. You know, the standard issues most Dems have always supported/opposed.
And the only time I have ever been referred to as 'Far Left' has been when I posted on mixed forums, by the Far Right.
Your post is exactly what I am talking about.
As for polls, I do not support Clinton's support for neocon Foreign Policies, BUT if I was being polled, and have been, I would say 'yes' to any question about supporting any Democrat, and have. You can't qualify your statement in those polls, so the default answer is 'yes' to all Democrats.
