Don't wanna vote for a robust PO? Fine, then I will be voting for someone who will. I didn't vote for my reps to go back to business as usual, I VOTED FOR CHANGE!

Either get on board or get off. I'm sick and tired of this back and forth shit! Either you are for real health care reform or you are on the take, and it isn't hard to tell who is for what. I see a lot of replacements being needed in the democratic party after these narcissistic bastards fuck us out of true reform.

WE ARE WATCHING! WE WILL BE VOTING. WE WILL REPLACE YOUR ASS!

AND, WE WILL SUCCEED!

1. Unfortunately, very few Dems will lose their seats because of the party's failure
to deliver on anything of significance.

Yes, "we are watching."

Yes, "we will be voting."

But no, we will not be able to replace their ass.

Many say that it is wrong to blame Obama because the POTUS is not the king and cannot enact laws himself. These people are correct.

The main power that the Prez has in our system is that "bully pulpit" that he (so far) commands. If Obama had come out as one-tenth the radical leftist the M$M and pukes painted him as, there would have been a lot more of us willing to do what we did in '08 to get him elected. But he showed that getting into office was more important than actually pushing any kind of progressive/liberal policies.

Hence the falloff in enthusiasm and effort.
