"Mike Papantonio talks about the need for every sector of the progressive movement to unite together -- No single group can operate on its own, and together we can help take down the Tea Party GOP's disastrous plans for America."

Mike Papantonio is correct that the so-called Progressives (Democratic Socialists, in actuality) need to come together and unite, for the short-term to prevent a Mitt Romney Presidency and a Tea Party Congress next year. Which is exactly what will happen if so-called Progressive (Socialists, in actuality) Democrats don't show up and vote Democratic in 2012. Which is exactly what they didn't do in 2010. 

The reason why we have a Republican House right now, because Tea Party Republicans showed up and voted Republican in 2010, while Socialists sat at home (staring at their I-phones and laptops, drinking too much coffee) or vote for socialist third-party candidates. . Because President Obama turned out not to be a Socialist that they were expecting in 2008 and that the Democratic Congress wasn't socialist enough for them either.

See, elections do have consequences, which is something that right-wingers figured out a long time ago. That a lot of left-wingers (whether they're democratic or not) haven't figured out yet, that if you don't like who comes to power and one of those reasons why they did come to power, is because you didn't bother to vote, that instead of sitting out and complaining about it, that if you don't do your part to prevent the people who came to power from getting into power, that you don't really have much reason to complain. Because if you just bothered to vote, maybe the people you want in power are still there
