The anti-DLC post on daily Kos that mysteriously (to me) has some people mad at Markos and the Daily Kos.

3. it puzzles me as well. the DLC is all about corporate

whores, just like bushco, albeit to a lesser extent. while there are some redeeming qualities, you'll never , ever win trying to out GOP the GOP.

4. exactly, and that's most people's complaint about the DLC

Simple as that. Some people are more pissed than others, but I still haven't seen anything that convinces me The DLC has any realistic idea how to win elections......for Democrats.

5. will Kos relinquish being a New Democrat "Fellow"?

this declaring war on the DLC while doing fellowship with
one of the offspring of the DLC is, at least, curious ...

Markos Moulitsas Zúniga aka Daily Kos is a Fellow at DLCer-Aspen Institute Fellow-Simon Rosenberg's latest offshoot of ndn.org, the New Politics Institute.

7. The top link doesn't work. N/T

Well this seems to be a sticky situation doesn't it. Anyone know more?

[wisteria]

8. What! It was there when I first tried it- its gone now!

It had Markos's picture with a brief history along with Trippie's and Rosenberg's (sp). Gee, I wonder why it's gone now?

9. if your interested the top link is working again.

10. Isn't Rosenberg trying to distance himself from the DLC?

I don't follow the guy, but that seemed to be the spin when he was running for DNC chair, and why he initially had more support than the DLC's chosen one, 9-11 coverup guy Tim Roemer.

And in a totally unrelated question, is Markos Zuniga related to former Melrose place goddess Daphne Zuniga?
