The Circle is Now Complete

I can't help but chuckle in reading this piece from the Democratic Leadership Council deriding Corporate America's influence on government. To be sure, it's a solid piece. But if you step back and consider where it's coming from, there is at least a bit of comedy to it: A group that made its name using corporate money to influence the Democratic Party is now deriding Corporate America's influence over the Republican Party. This is a sign progressives are winning the ideological battle - when those who formerly argued against us have no problem simply dropping their arguments - no matter how ridiculously transparent/opportunistic it looks - to join us.

In all, I'd rather have them fighting for the right things, than have them continue undermining the Democratic Party. So, seriously folks, this is a good development.

But it's still really hilarious.
