One of the six mentioned in the Third Way post, Third Way being DLC. Which was what I responded to. Just two weeks ago Salazar was some kind of proof Democrats could win running to the left, now he connects up with Third Way. And yet you insist on believing these candidates can win running left when you don't even know what they did to win. Left, by the way, isn't populist. And the left doesn't own progressive or liberal politics either, they don't even own the correct solution to every problem. Criticizing US aid because people in huts might be happy that way, is just one example. I guarantee they can be just as happy with running water and enough food to eat every day. The idea that they should be left alone rather than be tainted with US anything is pretty stupid in my book. I'm really tired of rigid politics wherever it comes from, and it's not liberal, progressive or populist.
