Populist group/party

6. about the populist group

Layign my cards on the table: I would gladly trade Clinton for Warren, but I know that is not possible at this stage.

However, I do want to see a popluist group because, regardless of media corraling, which is what most elections are, we need to have a group that puts consistent pressure on EVERYONE to at least LEAN leftward. Call it the left wing tea party if you want, but it worked well for them.

In Florida, Jeb picked Bill MCcolum as his seat warmer in Tallahassee, alogn came the Tea Party with their champions , Marco Rubio and Rick Scott. They won, leaving Jeb to fumble about. Now, this can very likely happen again.

My question is, why are we not buildign a coalition that can do the same? Answer, we are, it is just that it took the Clintons and Obamas talkign left and looking right to realize we need to help them "evolve" positions. That is not hate, that is leading them our way, and then letting them think it was their idea all along when the roses are thrown and the champagne is popped. Let them have the roses and champgne, as long as the right-wing skew that has been in place since Ronnie Ray gun is fixed.
