A reasonable progressive tries to look at life from both sides without pissing everyone off and sometimes succeeds.
Newsbobber says: For five years, Charlie Quimby has shared his opinions on the issues of the day, from healthcare to education, at Across the Great Divide. The former businessman is now a communications fellow at Growth and Justice -- a progressive economic think tank led by former Star Tribune political reporter Dane Smith. One of Quimby’s current projects, American Crosscut, brings bloggers of different ideologies together. The outcome, Quimby hopes, is a constructive dialogue that moves the conversation forward.
