[lbo-talk] obama's end run around the democratic party?

[RCu8598882 at aol.com]

forgive the comment of a trade union liberal: but its interesting how the  
Marxist left has written off Obama and his movement more quickly than the right  
has. the right is gearing up to thwart Obama's liberalism  while some of  the 
writers to lbo think he has sold out the people who got him elected even  
before he has been sworn into office and that his organizational structure will  
prove useless. But where is the left movement to match what Obama and his  
netroots have done? Maybe you should pay attention and look to some unions such  
as PSC-CUNY who sent about 200 members to Pa. They got involved. Of course, 
the  employee free choice act may not be forthcoming, as doug suggests, but 
labor  might be able to move him. Anyway having turned the PA district for Obama 
does  give one labor union some clout, even if small. Lively discussion; I'm 
glad that  I joined this list.
