68. not every progressive is perfectly progressive
so how far can you deviate before you lose the label? Which issues take priority? If I rate issues on the scale of 1) working class, 2) environment, 3) peace, 4) women's issues, and 5) GLBT does that make me less progressive than people who put women's issues and GLBT higher? Except for health insurance, working class issues do not seem to make Will's list. Is the working class just expected to carry water for every other group which can afford to donate to candidates? No wonder so many of us do not bother to vote.
