OK, guys. Let's organize to support the progressive movement.

We have to start educating voters one on one.

Start a think tank of your own with your activist friends in your city or town. Get together one evening or weekend afternoon a week. Pick a topic. Assign research to the members of your think tank and then come together and write SHORT position papers that you can hand out in public areas.

We don't have to wait for the media to do this work for us.

We should reactivate Democracy for America in places where it is now not very effective.

California did this sort of thing -- and look at the results.

Now is the time to begin to be proactive. Yes, some progressives like Feingold lost. But we also lost some of the most conservative in our party -- like Blanche Lincoln -- who refused to give much at all to the progressive side of the party.

Obama is a great guy, but he let us down. We can educate America. Let's do it.
