Fighting against big boxes

Richard Lipsky, lobbyist for the Neighborhood Retail Alliance, is on a roll! He just defeated Wal-Mart's insurgence on the New York economy. I hope it keeps going. I especially like these choice words from him:

...the key is combining a left-wing populist message with a conservative populist one about neighborhood character. [That’s] the music that makes the elected officials want to dance.
