I figure what better defense against those who cry "closet socialism" than by out right admitting to being one. I mean seriously, the "socialism" charge, which makes many a non-Republican shift in their boots, is nothing against an admitted Democratic Socialist.

Er, a social-democrat, yes. I've never heard him advocate for a proletarian revolution.

I've heard him multiple times, once on the Colbert Report, openly call himself a "Democratic Socialist". Sure it's not dye in the wool socialism, but it's still "socialism".
