Progressive Movement Has Conference

A who’s who of the progressive movement met for a conference call organized by Families USA and hosted by the advocacy group for government-run health care, The Herndon Alliance. The Alliance’s partners include AARP, AFL-CIO, SEIU, MoveOn and La Raza, among many others.  They were there to deliver some bad news.

Democratic pollsters John Anzalone, Celinda Lake and Stan Greenberg were the call’s main event.  They were saying, “Democrats are acknowledging the failure of their predictions that the health care legislation would grow more popular after its passage, as its benefits became clear and rhetoric cooled.  The presentation also concedes that the fiscal and economic arguments that were the White House’s first and most aggressive sales pitch have essentially failed.”

Health care is not the only issue where the socialist left is retreating in the face of strong disapproval from the American people. Versionista, a Portland, Oregon-based company that tracks changes to the White House website, reported that the socialist Barack Hussein Obama administration had made “whole-cloth” changes to its “Energy & Environment” issues page.  Out are any references to a cap on carbon emissions and a campaign pledge to spend $150 billion on clean energy technologies.

The new White House site includes a three-minute Earth Day-themed video from Obama. And across the country progressive Senate candidates in Missouri, Kentucky, and Indiana have all come out against Obama’s impending trillion dollar tax hike, due in January.

There is no better symbol for the overreach of the socialist movement into the daily lives of all Americans than Obamacare. Repealing this intolerable act and replacing it with the foundations for a truly market-based health care system is one of the best ways conservatives can capitalize on liberalism’s retreat.

With the socialist Democrats in retreat it is not enough for conservatives to just say “no.”  Conservatives must have real plans for reform if the American people choose to empower them.  This can be the conservatives chance to fix the problems in America with real solutions.
