The Left’s Fight for Control
Left in the wings: The looming fight for the heart and soul of the Democratic Party
With Bush vanquished, the Democrats’ internal battles will begin.
“We’re going to celebrate with John Kerry the night of Nov. 2. But the morning of Nov. 3, we’re going to start organizing to take the party away from him, because we have serious disagreements about what the party should stand for and where this country needs to go,” said one activist at the “What We Stand For” conference, Bertha Lewis, co-chair of the Working Families Party in New York state and a leader in the grassroots antipoverty group, ACORN.
Read it all. Scary stuff.

Reading the whole article I stumbed at the line “Kerry and his centrists…”
Centrists??!
Funny how the press tries to paint those left-of-center as “centrists”, while those truely in the center are “right-wing-idealogues”.
It just goes to show how perception is reality. If you are writing an article and you think Nader is just left-of-center but still quite reasonable, then how else would you view things?
