SNIP..."No Surrender
In yesterday's New York Times, op-ed columnist Paul Krugman broached the radicalization of the current administration and what it means to Democratic and progressive strategy in the next four years:

Yes, Democrats need to make it clear that they support personal virtue, that they value fidelity, responsibility, honesty and faith. This shouldn't be a hard case to make: Democrats are as likely as Republicans to be faithful spouses and good parents, and Republicans are as likely as Democrats to be adulterers, gamblers or drug abusers. Massachusetts has the lowest divorce rate in the country; blue states, on average, have lower rates of out-of-wedlock births than red states...."

SNIP..."This election has affected millions of people in a profound way, but instead of succumbing to disappointment they have turned this defeat into a challenge. The progressive community has galvanized in the last three days.

Democracy for America staff and volunteers have been surprised and delighted at the surge in new supporters and emphatic offers to help. Our inboxes are overflowing and our phone lines ring from early morning until late at night. We have seen a wave of new "faces" on the blog and host of long-lost supporters return home. If this is the kind of "get back to work" spirit we can expect from the progressive community, the Republicans are in for a tough few years."

This just warms my heart to see this. New and returning. Very proud. A community to take our country back, not totally defined yet, but not bad for such a new group. Proud of DFA.
