Not the media, not the crowds who listen them, or their own party members question their lies. Same ole, same ole.

1. I agree re members of the party. Sad but much of the wrangling is between those who are just in the
primary game for either BO or HC and most will never contribute much time or funds to really help the Democratic Party gain and maintain control of government.

5. If we do support them the party leaders just give it away.
Democrats gave as much or more than Republicans in the last election. That's a lot of small donors since Republicans had big money behind them.

2. Yep, we've really done it to ourselves this time.
I've given up on our nation's government. American's have just gotten too stupid. Analyzing is just too difficult. It's much easier to just drink the Koolaid and start heaping the praise. One thing is for sure, the next 4 years will be more of the SOS. The only thing different will be how our new President, whom ever it is, further destroys what was once the greatest nation on earth. From what I've seen so far, Obama could very well prove to be the most divisive president we've had since, well, George W. Bush.

3. "Most divisive" - sorry, kid, you're just not paying attention.

6. Obama will use race and religion to get his way.
No matter what it is...he will win by using it. I'd like to believe differently but can't considering his record in Congress so far.

He has not stood up for the Constitution. White, black, yellow, Catholic, Muslim, atheist, etc. we all deserve a President who will represent us all.
