I have a sneaking suspicion that this information will be used by centrist-types to dismiss the legitimate concerns of the more lefty elements on DU, esp. w/r/t to the President. "Oh, of course you're criticizing Obama for not closing Gitmo - you're probably being paid by some right-wing think tank!" As if no one actually can take a more leftist position on DU without getting paid for it.
Already we see this with the hysteria over Jane Hamsher. I have a feeling this accusation will be used against anyone who takes positions that are to the left of the Obamam Administration.
