Progressive Candidates Storming the DC "Village" Barricades, Causing Fainting?


According to Stuart Rothenberg, the PCCC is just like the Tea Party --- well except for all the millionaire PAC money, of course. But other than that, they are the same sort of crazy wacked out fringe dwelling extremists who are making it very hard for decent, God fearing centrists to run the Democratic Party:
