Anthony Weiner and Alan Grayson

[Wetzelbill]

Those guys rock. It's been good to have those two on our side during the health care debate. There are a few others too, of course, but I think they both really came into their own recently.

1. + 1

:patriot:

2. Good stuff. We need new blood

And they're from the Democratic wing of the party.

3. I am hoping that they are the future of the Democratic Party

I was amused today when Grayson identified himself as a Progressive and Tweety tried to tell him that being a Liberal is nothing to be ashamed of. I think Grayson knows very well what a Liberal is and I think he considers himself to be more left than the average Liberal, i.e. a Progressive!

I just hope our party does not shoot him down like they tend to with anyone who does not toe the line.

4. Oh I get it.

You mean the way the party shot down Kent Conrad,Max Baucus and the rest of the dissenters in the senate finance committee.

[SilasSouleII]

5. Baucus

et all sold out. Baucus especially... in the pocket of Health corps

[csziggy]

6. No, I mean the way the party marginalizes people like Dennis Kucinich

And other real progressives that won't play their games.

7. Weiner's pushing for REAL reform (single payer). Sad that DU didn't embrace him...

... near as much as it did Grayson.
