The Explosive Growth Of The Progressive Movement

Bill Scher — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 03:00:27 -0400

Reporters always complain that there is no news at political conventions any more. Perhaps. But there is news outside the convention hall: the loud buzz of progressive activity, organizing and mobilizing around big issues, hundreds of decibels louder than at the Democratic convention of 2004.

All my bloggingheads.tv partner, and Heritage Foundation blogger, Conn Carroll could do was scoff at the notion that "The Big Tent is sponsoring no less than ten panels about global warming this week." But all that shows is progressives are coming to Denver to work, and work hard.

With that in mind, allow me to share with you me a few more interviews from my Monday of live streaming (Tuesday's stream should get going around 9 AM MT).

Arianna Huffington shares what she expects from convention week.

Claire Silberman discussed how Crafting Liberally -- part of the Living Liberally empire -- is helping expand the progressive community.

While Michael and Al Shaw, father-and-son team at BAGnewsNotes, talked about how progressives still lag conservatives in using visuals to communicate ideas.

We are happy to bring you another edition of our “Political Dispatch” podcast series from PoliticalBuzz.com. “PD” is a weekly series bringing you insight and analysis from the best political journalists and strategists as well as exclusive interviews with top politicians and campaign staffers.

This week we talked with…

Robert Borosage - president of the Institute for America’s Future and co-director of its sister organization, the Campaign for America’s Future. He also writes occasional columns for the Huffington Post blog.

Robert has been a frequent guest on the program and returned today to chat about the Rev. Jesse Jackson’s recent controversial remarks about Barack Obama and what, if any, rift has developed between Obama and the liberal/progressive base of the Democratic Party as the Dem nominee makes a subtle shift to the center for the general.
