The Obama adminstration can't run fast enough away from the progressive movement, or did you not read the thread about Robert Gibbs and the "professional left"? That's exactly who he's talking about.
"Progressives" are all about command and control. They try to cover their cancerous warts with a coat of populism, but "fundamental change" (sound familiar?) is their true mission.Progressives tend toward populism and against established power and wealth. It was clear Obama was not a progressive as soon as he hired Geithner, Summers, and Emmanuel.
"Progressives" will use any means necessary. In their upside-down world, "the ends justify the means".Democrats can't rely on labor $'s alone to get elected anymore. Just like Clinton before him he's a corporatist.
I'd give you a B- if you can rewrite this in your own words.
