Why the anti-incumbent movement will fail [View All]

[FSogol]

CNN has been pushing the idea that there is an anti-incumbent movement in this country. (Sort of true)
Howard Dean claims that the movement will effect the Repubs as much as the Democrats. (Sort of true)

I think the movement will go nowhere. Sure, people hate incumbents who they blame the problems on, but, what they really hate is other people's incumbents. The average voters (for the most part) like their elected officials. That's why they always get elected. They feel the problems are with other district and State's elected officials. They may be disgruntled, but since they do not vote in those other districts or States, their unhappiness will play no role in the election.

We will do fine in the next election and the one after that.
