This little bit from Josh Marshall will warm your heart, as it were.

---------------------------------

Tim Bergreen, head of the new group Democrats for National Security, and Donna Brazile have an Op-Ed today in the Wall Street Journal on the Dems' defense gap. What catches my eye, and heartens me, is Brazile's name on that byline. I saw her speak at last Saturday's Social Democrats, USA conference on a very similar theme. Explaining the political and intellectual lineage of this group (the SDUSA) would take too many hundreds of words. (These are, simply as I can put it, the neo-cons who never quite became neo-cons.) In any case, I have an article coming out on the conference in a couple days. And I'll post a link when it hits the newsstands. But suffice it to say for now that the essence of the endeavor was an attempt to build a democratic left that is progressive at home and muscular, internationalist and Wilsonian abroad. It was an exciting event.

More on all this soon.
