David Atkins talks fiscal cliff, local activism and the future of liberalism on Virtually Speaking with Jay Ackroyd

I managed to sneak in an hour to talk with Jay Ackroyd on his Virtually Speaking show in between executive board and county committee meetings last night. We talked about the blindness of political and financial elites, Chris Hayes' great book, the stupidity of the fiscal cliff debate, the future of liberalism as an idea in the 21st century, crisis politics, and the importance of local activism.
