So, reading the blogs today I came across this link: http://rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/labels_matter_progressive_better_than_liberal_reagan_like_better_than_conservative and as much as I wanted to roll my eyes and move along to actual news, a part of me couldn’t help but feel a bit pleased.  As a “Progressive” I find that I am often annoyed by the wedge issue political banter that is focused on labels and terms as opposed to actual policy and action-- but to hear that people feel positively about the term “Progressive” after all of the angst we have felt for being pigeonholed as “liberals” and all of the struggle we have gone through having to oppose “Pro Life” (we were right on the issues, I feel, but we got the shaft on the terminology end of the deal)....Well, I took a moment to relish in that win, I’ll admit.  I mean, is this truly an essential part of the path towards a winning campaign? To have people respond well to your label? If so (at least today) I guess I’m all about it…
