Re: Thomas Frank op-ed piece

I'd be *very* careful how one went about this.  It feels like entryism, and
the experience of the (UK) Labour Party in the 1980s suggests that the
'mainstream' Dems would react to it very badly indeed (by which I mean that
this, if it didn't work, would be the *end* of friendly relationships
between the US Left (S.A.I.I) and the Democratic Party.  There are lots of
people in the UK Labour party who were good friends once but who still don't
speak to each other, because of things that happened with Militant during
the 80s.
