"One Nation" Coalition

One-hundred seventy or so progressive organizations and groups have been working for months to form a new coalition that will bring together and mobilize people and causes on the left (hey, stop yawning).

Ok, I'm probably getting the messaging wrong, but it's something like that. It's called One Nation. (And it's Google-ranking needs some help, stat).

The group was previewed in a Washington Post article earlier this month that gives a basic explanation. There's not that much else out there on it, except for apparently in some corners of the conservative blogosphere, where One Nation is considered a big conspiracy or something.

There's not much on the group's website beyond promoting the march -- that's October 2, in DC. The march is "to create millions of good jobs, repair our immigration system, and reform Wall Street!"

Those sound like good things to me. Let's hope the sects don't co-opt.
