Which candidates call themselves "liberal"?
Advertisements [?]
Which of the Democratic candidates are willing to call themselves "liberals" and their policies "liberal"?

Also, how many of them call themselves "progressives" and their policies "progressive"? It takes somewhat less daring to use that word, since Rove and his ilk haven't quite managed to tar it with their bullshit spin. But still...

Here I'm breaking the lawyer's rule of knowing what the answer is when I ask a question.

Links with examples will be much appreciated.
