(1) "will we have the time necessary before the elections to fix this problem, and still have enough time left to field a truely viable, truely progressive candidate?"

We might. If a very popular "progressive" were to throw his or her hat intot he ring, and had the name-recognition and the funding that would bring available, there could be a chance. There are one or two that immediately come to mind. But, sadly, as the weeks tick off, and time goes by, it seems less and less likely. I still hold out hope.

(2) "Do you believe a DLC infected Democrat can be as bad as what we have now?"

I see so little difference in policy and stances on the issues, my answer would have to be YES. I see no peaceniks in the DLC. I see no economic populists. I see not willingness to buck the corporate structure to give us Single-Payer universal health care. Yup.... Just as bad.
