-No, but calling him progressive is.
Why? "Progressive" almost by definition is a relative term. Kerry's
policies will unquestionably be progress away from Bush's sinkhole of
rightwing corporatism. Kerry's pro-affirmative action, pro-abortion,
supports the laundry list of labor law reforms, and wants to tax the
wealthy. It's not socialism but it's a decent start.
