But LH, grassroots activism CAN beat big money. Wellstone proved that in 1990.

At the end of the day, it is all about who can get the most voters to the polls. Historically, that was the Democrats, before the soft money corruption took over. But that is exactly how Wellstone got elected. He mobilized a substantial progressive left army of grassroots activists to actually get out of the house, and do the work. And that is just what it is going to take to take the country back from the right wing extremists who currently control it.
