Needed: Better Democrats

Glenn Greenwald writes today in Salon about the netroots' efforts to successfully pressure Democratic office holders who waver on core values like SCHIP, the children's insurance program, and current movements to further embarrass and influence the so-called Blue Dogs into doing the right thing.
It's easy to contribute in this age of the Internet, you don't have to sit back wringing your hands, convinced there's little you can do.
This is what politics on the Internet is all about.
Greenwald rightly points out that the netroots is most effective targeting local races, citing the recent election of Democrat Bill Foster in former House Speaker Denny Hastert's very red district in Illinois.
There's now a national effort to pressure Blue Dogs on the FISA bill, discussed in the post below, whose provisions Greenwald largely approves.
Here's a place to vote on who should be targeted, and a place to contribute to the ad campaign.
Remember, the vote could come up as early as Thursday.
