Jane Harman in her upcoming primary re-match against PDA-backed Marcy Winograd, long time leader in the grassroots progressive organization.

On the Full Political Spectrum

    June 10, 2009 at 8:56 am What party should someone join who is socially liberal (or progressive) but economically conservative? There used to be a significant wing of the Republican Party that filled this niche, but has not existed since the rise of the Reagan Cult.Such a person will not be terribly comfortable in the Democratic Party either. It points up our extreme need to move to multiparty democracy.have a peaceful day,
