The NDC and BDC Sold Us Out

With Markos Moulitsas meeting DLC Chairman Harold Ford, Jr. on this week’s Meet the Press, I thought I’d point how strong the correlation is between membership in the New Democratic Coalition (NDC) and the Blue Dog Coalition (BDC) and the people that sold out our rights on the FISA bill. Ford, as leader of the DLC, is also essentially the leader of the NDC (although that distinction technically goes to Ellen Tauscher (CA-10)). But, Ford Jr. also speaks for many Blue Dogs. These people must be brought to heel.
