''Stop Crying, Start Shaking...And Dems Will Start Winning''

David Sirota, a frequent visitor on Al Franken's Air America show and a Fellow at the Center for American Progress, writing on his Sirotablog: "There's been a lot of vitriol lately coming from the political Establishment aimed at progressives and the grassroots elements of the Democratic Party. Despite Democrats' now assuming a seemingly permanent-minority position, it seems progressives are shunned or vilified anytime they speak up about how sellouts who claim to be Democrats are a big part of the party's problem."
