Sort of guilty? (none / 0)

For the record, when I was writing at DemWatch, I endorsed Simon's bid for chair (you can actually see a ton of his endorsements at his old campaign site). That said, I haven't personally had any contact with Simon or NDN (outside of being on their mailing list) since then.

The reason I mention this is that a lot of the blogosphere folks who've aligned themselves with Simon do so because we like where he's coming from when he talks about building party infrastructure. It's not a reflection of acceptance of DLC national security ideology, as seems to be your concern. I can't really prove that per se, but Markos would probably be the last person to ever align himself with the DLC, and he's working with NDN, so that should say something.

I agree with a lot of what you say. (none / 0)

Actually I like what I have seen of Simon, but I need to know if he is a continuation still of the DLC mindset.  

I think we need to know, as wolves in sheep's clothing are appearing all over the place.  Here is a post about The Third Way which caught my interest.   I had heard of them, but I did not realize how controlling they were planning to be on the Democratic agenda.

Again, will someone give me the html for posting a link.  I have done it quite often, but today it is not working.
