9. Well sir I believe it can be summed up in one word ...........
FEAR

The right has done a very good job of raising the fear level in this country. They have used loss of jobs, terror, taxes, loss of homes, and anything else they can find to scare the population that they have the answers and they know whom to blame. They blame the democrats, they blame Obama, the blame the un-godly, they blame the browns, they blame the Muslims, they blame everyone except themselves.

The democrats are not immune to this fear. They have lost jobs, they have lost homes, they have lost as much as the right. At the same time they are trying to save this country from itself. They care about their fellow man and woman. The right cares only for themselves and can not see past their own fear, anger, and hate. It is hard some times to have someones' back when you have fear.

You can either believe in the progressives or not, that is your choice. You can go it alone, you can put your trust in the right, or you can put your trust in the progressives when the real battle comes down. I know which one I will choose.
