So take Lee's lovely list
Tell me which of those people and organizations on there are the "radical left".
I might agree with the whackier ones like PETA or La Raza (who also have almost no clout or political capital) being further left than the mainstream Democrat but Marxists? That's laughable. Most of those loons can't see beyond their single issue.
But Pelosi, Reid, Ted Kennedy? Not my favorite pols by any means but hardly card-carrying Commies. They're too invested in capitalism themselves. They'd wipe out their own personal fortunes and power if they killed the free market completely.
Your straw man lists as always are still full of hot air.
