A progressive is a liberal who is too chicken shit to call himself a liberal.
I on the other hand am a liberal.
Calling yourself progressive is typical left wing thinking, and emblematic of why we keep losing.
The left thinks like this:"Conservatives have made 'liberal' a bad word by smearing liberals with all sorts of bad connotations. So instead of being liberals, we will change our name, and then people will not think all those bad things about us."
Well guess what smarty pants! Conservatives will just start smearing "progressives" too, and you will look like a wimp for changing your name.
What would be better is to DEFEND yourself, and your name, and then ATTACK conservatives for being the Darwin hating, flat earth believin', outtatouch douchebags* that they are.
Don't go around changing your name. Defend yourself and your positions.
This thinking is the same that everyone saw with the nomination of John Kerry. It is almost as if the Left group think was: "Kerry is a war hero, therefore the Right wouldn't DARE attack his national security credentials, and if they do, well the charges won't stick."
I think we all know how that worked out... Swift Boat Veterans anyone?
We could nominate Christ as our candidate for President, and the Republican political message machine would still attack Him for His Character.
*namecalling rules!
