10. Never underestimate what this country is capable of... Bush got in twice and
to not a small number elections are popularity contests, more and more akin to American Idol and similar. Many rely on tabloid news for their definitive sources and not a small number the likes of Palin, Beck and the pack, and what their religion and Fox News tells them to do.

We have a lot of ignorant people in the US when it comes to picking the ones that best serve their interests and the best interests of the country. I never cease to be amazed how the people with the least vote for Rs and the ones most disingenuous to their needs. I think many put their brains in neutral when they vote.
