[lbo-talk] Is this the new left?

[Max B. Sawicky]

Berube is of that rare strain of militantly anti-radical social democrat.
Duncan doesn't claim to be a leftist.  He's a militant Democrat, like Kos.
Berube is pretty set in his thinking but we shouldn't forget that the sort
of people who read Kos and Atrios can get radicalized.
