Voices From The Left

A couple of medium-short interviews worth watching:

First, via Kevin K., Bernie Sanders talks to MSNBC about getting a real health care reform bill passed.

Hurrah for the Senate's only socialist!

Next, via gill mann, Cenk Uygar's interview of Rep. Joe Sestak, who is considering running against Sen. Arlen Specter in the 2010 Democratic primaries. Here, in addition to mostly liking what I heard from Sestak, I was really impressed by Uygar's solid interviewing skills -- good questions, good listening, good follow-ups, and no hesitation about stating how he sees things.

See Uygar's related post for a link to the transcript. And damn, I keep meaning to pay more attention to the Cenk and the rest of The Young Turks.
