"I'm going to refrain from calling him a dirty little troll of a man who wouldn't know a lit drop from a phone bank."
"He's a little punk ass jerk with an over-inflated ego."
It is the rare political insider or activist - either Republican or Democrat - that doesn't have a few strong words to describe the figure popularly known as Kos.

Like him or hate him, Kos has a lot of power behind him and opportunity before him. He is helping Democrats all across the country to feel engaged, and have an impact. He is also profiting, promoting his personal beliefs and values, and building an army of followers. For Democrats starved for intelligent opposition to the conservative control of our politics and issues, good, critical analysis of the political scene is like a drug. And, Kos gives us our fix.
But does he represent the future of a community-based, net-centric politics? Kos is always looking forward - he sees the opportunity for self-organizing networks to impact politics. And he has staked out a role for himself in leading the charge. But as long as he operates within the top-down, opaque, unaccountable organizational structure that defines The Daily Kos, he will have chosen to remain firmly planted in the past as well.
