What's the Plan?

The late Ossie Davis told us: “It’s not the man, it’s the plan.”  So, yesterday I turned my attention from the Seattle Space Needle to a National Public Radio report on how progressives are building an infrastructure to advance their agenda.

With PowerPoint presentation in tow, Rob Stein is spearheading an effort to raise money for a new think tank that will take on the conservative message machine – and win elections.

But just like Steve Rosenthal who wowed funders with his PowerPoint rap, Stein’s plan doesn’t include black folks in the takeoff.  And we all know where Rosenthal has landed.
