| Former Congressman Martin Frost has added another bullet to his resume by heading up America Votes, a self-proclaimed progressive get-out-the-vote venture.
From the America Votes press release:
“America Votes has changed the way progressives approach politics and I look forward to continuing the innovative work already accomplished,” Frost said. “Joining a proven organization with such significant partners is an opportunity anyone committed to progressive ideals wouldn’t hesitate to take.”
Via the Star-Telegram:
"It's not candidate-specific; it's issues -- pro-choice, pro-environment, pro-worker's rights."
Frost notes that America Votes is a coalition of over 37 membership organizations that pool their resources together to build, empower, and activate the progressive community. |

| I’m very excited to see Martin Frost get back into the political game again. He is an immense talent who couldn’t be beaten fair and square in an election; it took Republicans formulating a gerrymandered district to take out a good congressman who did great work for the people of North Texas. Having worked on his campaigns in the past, I was always impressed by the massive, well organized field machine that he was able to build. I learned more from his campaign in 2004 then any other campaign I've ever worked on.
I wonder if this venture is an effort to fill a void in his life, or perhaps an opportunity to improve his already vast network of connections for something more.
