This is something I think you'd like - It's a sensational, off-beat documentary film, a metaphor for what's wrong, for what we're up against:

It's only tangentially related, about power & politics over a battle that took place in Philadelphia featuring some characters we've come to know from the cable news programs on the national political scene. It's a must-see for understanding what we're dealing with.
Showtime has been broadcasting it (it's also for rent at Netflix and video stores).
I can't recommend highly enough!
[Then watch this, but it may change your perception of Rachel Maddow. At the very least, you'll never look at Ed Rendell the same way. That is if you've been looking on him favorably. In this clip, Rendell says clearly what I've been writing about for years (since the DLC took control of the Democratic Party back in 1990), about the DLC helping to push the Republican Party to the right, in order to attract moderate Republican politicians and their supporters into the Democratic Party. Yes, "politics makes strange bedfellows", but there's a point where one's humanity is at stake, and if Democrats want to regain theirs, if Democratic voters want politicians who work on their behalf and not corporations', if Democratic voters want the principles they believe America is all about and what makes us great, they have to purge the DLC from the party.
