11. I had some thoughts on this.
It seems to me that the internet community does a fine job of being a collective mind and getting the liberal message out. The grassroots network of blogs, message boards, and email chains is almost organic.

Where it falls down is 1) traditional media and 2) a real infrastructure of progressive think tanks and message coordination getting out to the Dem leadership.

Seems to me that WE can't do a whole lot about those two points--- other than email them, call them, and annoy them as much as possible. And, of course, move ourselves into positions of leadership as much as possible....

Just my two cents.
