Day before yesterday Matt Stoller of Open Left had a very important post about Blue America PAC openly breaking with Blue Dog Coalition member Rep. Chris Carney (D, PA - 10). This break should not come as a surprise and I'll be posting more about this later. Open Left's discussion of this issue made me realize how important it is to track the two Blue Dog Congressional members from Floridsa: Allen Boyd (D, FL - 2) and Tim Mahoney (D, FL - 16). I have added a widget in the lower right sidebar that tracks the news of these two DINO's (Democrats In Name Only). There will be a more extensive post on this in a week or two.
