[lbo-talk] fight within Respect

[Rick Kisséll]

And if the "office" in question is the national legislature, it's a feat that hasn't been achieved by a left party in the USA since my town sent Victor Berger to Congress on the Socialist ticket.  (I regard Bernie Sanders as more of an independent.)

Of *course* it is.  How could it be otherwise?  What other small party of
only three years old has established a raft of councillors, parliamentary
representation and serious challenges to other parliamentary
constituencies?  This is only an electoral success, but it is one that
hasn't been repeated at least since 1945.
