Democrats and Progressives: The Real Work Begins Now!

The defeat of the Far Right in last night's congressional elections is not the end of the job.
We have to use this new space to organize, to demonstrate, to build support for a TRUE progressive program.

Like any other officeholders, the newly elected Democratic Congress will try to do as little as possible to reward grass-roots and activist support. We have to hold their feet to the fire!

We should now be planning mass rallies to coincide with the swearing-in of the new Congress on peace, social justice, economic justice and electoral reform.

And continued organization to build on the start we have made.

Let's get to it.

Congratulations to the winners. And remember, we've got our eyes on you.

what we do with it will determine how people will feel about us come 2008 . . .
