Reply #119: First, We THOUGHT We Were Electing A DIFFERENT Person... We worked

[ChiciB1]

hard, almost ALL of us whether he was our first choice or not, and what did we get? A man you say doesn't care "one whit" about you or those of us who worked for him. Living where I live I've tried to be optimistic about WHO that person could be! My state may have changed a little because of Obama, but I don't believe it will GO BLUE again! My district, county and city is REPUKE CENTRAL! I don't even know if there was EVER a Democrat elected as a county commissioner, EVER! Katherine Harris was my Representative for two terms, and now it's Vernie Buchanan! Bill Nelson is a Senator here, but the (D) doesn't seem to stand for much!

I thought long and hard about HOW to get him out of office, but HE HAS ALL THE MONEY! He has the name recognition for most DLC/DINO's in this state! Kendrick Meek doesn't seem to be any better either! Anybody running against them won't succeed, I fear. I can only think back to Ned Lamont and recall what happened to him!

In CT they decided to go for someone besides Joe, but who stepped in and helped him out? He GOT ELECTED and what a farce (force) he's been since then! Even OBAMA won't go against him!!

I would LOVE to see a Progressive Caucus, but I don't have a clue as to how I can go about it! I don't know where to start, and even if I did START... I seriously DOUBT I could muster up 100 people!

So, I'm all questions without answers OR solutions! One thing I do feel in my bones is this... things CAN NOT go on this way much longer! I hear rumblings, I feel unease, but I see NO ACTION! I AM AFRAID!

We have NO POWER! Corporations and all the BIG GIANTS are making sure of that, and it seems OBAMA is going right along with them! We say we need to spread Democracy to other countries, yet we are losing ours!

I know people may reply that all I do is rant, get involved... I HAVE been involved since the 70's... it's getting worse, NOT BETTER!! I want to quit, I want to stop complaining, I want to walk away from it all, but I CARE. And I'm addicted!!
