This is the first time I've ever heard of the DFC.

I'm too liberal on economics to be a Blue Dog, but too conservative on social issues and foreign policy to be a Progressive. I'm a Democrat without a caucus Cry

DFC, though I identify with the McGovern wing of the Party.

Pretty much opposites, those two.

Not really, there's a lot of overlap between the far left and certain libertarians.

Except McGovern isn't that far left. He's a fairly standard liberal, at least on economic issues. There may be some overlap on social issues, but I'd still say there's a good amount of distance between the two.
