What an amazing night for progressives!(The lefts take)

What an amazing night for progressives!

In Pennsylvania, progressive challenger Joe Sestak defeated Republican-turned-Democrat Arlen Specter in the primary!

In Arkansas, progressive challenger Bill Halter is neck-and-neck with corporate Democrat Blanche Lincoln and firmly advances to a run-off election in 3 weeks. Lincoln only has 43% in a Democratic primary (unbelievable!) -- voters want change, and Halter promised tonight to "finish the job" in the run-off.

Can you chip in an emergency $3 to help Halter "finish the job" in the upcoming run-off? Click here!

Thousands of PCCC members contributed time and money to Halter's campaign.

PCCC members chipped in $170,000 to fund Halter's grassroots voter-contact operation, and boy did that pay off! Political insiders thought that if Halter made a run-off, he'd start off way behind -- but instead, he enters as the favorite.

Tonight, we proved that our support can truly help good candidates win!

Thanks for being a bold progressive.

--Adam Green, Stephanie Taylor, Aaron Swartz, and the PCCC team

Exactly. CCCP was the Russian acronym for the USSR. The similarity to PCCC was 100% intentional. What’s funny is they’d probably get snippy if you siad they had any warm feelings for socialism. Liberals want to dabble with the ideologies of our enemies yet still be thought of as loyal patriots.

"The similarity to PCCC was 100% intentional."

Exactly wahat I was thinking. Too close to be an accident unless they are complete morons, which might also be true.

I believe this is all an intentional campaign plan by the administration. They big in November....with total Republican control in the House and likely 48 Republicans in the Senate. Come January....the administration goes into a 2-year campaign mode and that’s virtually all they do.

Good. The more far-left candidates the Democrats field in November, the bigger their losses are going to be. Go Progressives, put more conservatives in office!

They seem to be able to fool the stupid voters at will. They idiots believe anything they see on tv. They probably even think Superman is real.

It might be an amazing night for them but Lincoln will probably win the runoff and Sestak is destined to lose in the general election. More interesting is the tack the Dem candidate will take against Rand Paul. He’s accusing Paul of wanting to dismantle whole bureaucracies and of being too extreme. It will be interesting to see how that plays out.

The more progressive the challenger the better! Let them try to defend this administration’s policies! They’re setting themselves up for a massacre come November! Independent moderates will be voting republican in droves!

Who is PCCC?

It's a mirror image of CCCP.

Which in the old Soviet Union stood for "Central Committee of the Communist Party.

Other CCCP's include:

List of Central Committees

* Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in the People's Republic of China

Obama's strategy so far has been to basically abandon Democratic candidates that fell on their swords voting for him and to give stealth and proxy support to candidates who are even more left-wing than those he used up.

Support the Chicago Marxist Mafia at your peril.

Beat me to it.

This organization has clearly chosen a name which is intended to match the Soviet Union. The country we called USSR actually called itself CCCP. Now we've got this hard-left organization calling itself PCCC.

Not very subtle.
