Crashing the Gate

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Crashing the Gate: Netroots, Grassroots, and the Rise of People Powered Politics (ISBN 1-931498-99-7) is a book authored by American political bloggers Markos Moulitsas of Daily Kos and Jerome Armstrong of MyDD, published in 2006 by Chelsea Green.

In this book, the authors document what they see as the ineffectiveness of "old-school politics" in the Democratic Party, and advocate for a "new kind of popular political movement" that combines the netroots, grassroots, labor unions and big donors to effect a "broad change in the political landscape" of the United States.
