"facts are the best tool of the Progressive Wing."

I wish we had a truly progressive cable news channel to counteract Fox 24/7 propaganda too. And a strong personality spewing facts on the radio to counteract Rush & co on RW radio....that would help.

But in the meantime, we can only support our true loyal progressives like Elizabeth Warren & Bernie, Sherrod Brown & Al Franken, Whitehouse over in RI, etc. And get things happening locally. That'll be easier to do once the Primary gets cranked...
