Among the left leaning blogs, one site that I find more honest and
intelligent is the somewhat recent "OpenLeft" -- for one thing,
adopting "Left" in their name demonstrates a stronger spine than
less confrontational terms like "progressives" that have become all
the rage.

or even stronger spine "Communist".
I hope its not the lack of a strong spine that stops me from calling
myself a Marxist or Communist. ;-) As Jim mentioned in his response,
the left viewpoint encompasses a wide range of issues that share a
common basis. You may argue that Marxism or Communism is that base (or
that they describe that base in clear terms), and I cannot respond on
that since I lack the knowledge.
