Crashing the Gate: Netroots, Grassroots, and the Rise of People Powered Politics is a book (ISBN 1-931498-99-7) authored by American political bloggers Markos Moulitsas of Daily Kos and Jerome Armstrong of MyDD, published in 2006 by Chelsea Green.[1]

Summary

In this book, the authors document what they see as the ineffectiveness of "old-school politics" in the Democratic Party, and advocate for a "new kind of popular political movement" that combines the netroots, grassroots, labor unions and big donors to effect a "broad change in the political landscape" of the United States.

In one chapter, they argue that there are two models for Democratic candidate success in the future.[2] One is to keep interest groups at bay, as exemplified by the 2004 electoral victory of Montana governor Brian Schweitzer.[2] The other is to bring disparate interest groups together, as exemplified by the alliance of Colorado Democrats who succeeded in winning back the state legislature, several Congressional districts, and a seat in the United States Senate.[2]
