Socialist! Here in this totally Democratic Party dominated small City where I live, we're having knock-down arguments over whether or not this word is inherently harmful. I'm firmly in the "don't let them define the word or anything else" camp, Whenever the Radical Righties and the Corporate outfits try to demonize the word, then I say turn it against THEM. Plenty of ways to do that. The extraordinary mayor of NYC has consistently demonstrated that the way to do that is to make it all about the issues and not about himself or party politics. This Corporate Media interview is no exception. They try to spin against him and demonize the word but they can't figure out how. It's great to watch him do that.
