Emergency rally in Austin

Emergency rally in Austin



After one bad Senate election, most Democrats in Washington are on the verge of full-fledged retreat.



Everything we've fought for together hangs in the balance. President Obama has signaled he's open to dramatically scaling back health care reform.1 The chairman of the Senate Banking Committee says he might gut the financial reform bill to appease Republicans.2 And on top of all that, the Supreme Court just opened the floodgates of corporate cash… Continue

A stampede

A stampede



Yesterday morning, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that corporations can spend freely in federal elections.



It's a green light for a new stampede of special interest money in our politics, giving their lobbyists even more power in Washington. Now, every candidate who fights for change could face limitless attacks from corporate special interests like health insurance companies and Wall Street banks.



While the GOP is celebrating a victory for its special… Continue

Fox News volunteers for Scott Brown's campaign

Fox News volunteers for Scott Brown's campaign



Picking up where the network left off in 2009, Fox News jumped into its first political campaign of the year, this time setting its sights on the U.S. Senate to help elect Republican Scott Brown to the seat previously held by Democrat Ted Kennedy. Fox News and other media conservatives anticipated and celebrated Brown's election with a hyperbolic fervor that would redden the faces of the "Obamaniacs" they most despised in 2008. As… Continue

In fact, a recent poll shows that a majority… Continue
