(751 posts)At the time people Chomsky were saying he is no different from other politicians, and they were right. All we had to do is look at the support he was getting and where it was coming from. Obama just played the system better, and got the support good chunk of the establishment & power brokers. I'm still glad he won over Hillary, and McCain, but he was not revolutionary in any way.
The morals are not about if they are nice to each other and other people. I could care less what they do in their personal lives. The moral decay I'm talking is selling public access for personal gain. I can even forgave the campaign financing part as every candidate begs the rich for money. Compare Clinton's post office record with that of Jimmy Carter. Or even George Bush. Not only is there the appearance of corruption, but REAL and OUT in the public corruption. I just can't stand people who use public office to gain personally. IMO Romney has 10x the morals that Clintons have, and I don't think much of Romney.
