The Socialist Alternative party, fresh off a surprise win in November, is setting up an office in Seattle...
Kshama Sawant’s defeat of incumbent Seattle City Councilmember Richard Conlin “was a watershed moment for the socialist movement across the country,” said Philip Locker, a national organizer for the Socialist Alternative party and the Sawant campaign’s political director....
In political races, Locker said, they run to win and don’t consider themselves fringe candidates.
I agree with her. Boeing threatened to move the company elsewhere the workers should do whatever they can to make sure they stay there. People before profits!
Wow! Great news! Breaking the 2 party monopoly is great no matter what party does it. This is wonderful!
You would think people who are against the two party system would be happy about this, but apparently they only care about third parties when it is parties they support.
i hope boeing shuts down the plants in washington state and moves them elsewhere. and what would really be fun is if boeing maintains the plant property and pays the property taxes, and never lets anyone open that property again, until to radicals are gone from government. lets see how washington state would deal with the high unemployment after boeing leaves.

OK, let's bring in Ahmadinejad to start a Sharia Law party and run for US office. After all breaking the monopoly is great no matter what party does it, right? And Mahmoud has some time on his hands now.

In Seattle, there are only two parties... Communist, and communist-lite. This change is nothing to get excited about.

OK. See difference is people actually wanted what the Socialist Alternative Party was selling...I doubt many would want what a Sharia Law party would sell.
