The following statement appeared in a previous post entitled "Democrat Landslide Makes George W. Bush a lame duck president" "Progressive Democrats still have a monumental task ahead because the elected Democrats were Conservative Democrats who are aligned in one way or another to the DLC." That statement was made in error. After further research I have found that the majority of Democrats elected were Progressive Democrats, in fact according to the Progressive Democrat Alliance there were actually 71 Progressive Democrats chosen for the new House of Representatives. Republican sources were responsible for promoting that statement and I admit I should have known better to carefully scrutinize any statement coming from the current Republican braintrust.
