Edited on Tue Feb-19-08 10:49 PM by workinforalivin
held the majority of Congress and the Executive Branch for four years and voters will finally realize not much will have changed for avg. Americans. Then, perhaps, the country will get it and revolt against the ingratiated, embedded, establishment, and elect a truly Progressive Dem.

4. Obama is like Carter with a sprinkling of JFK charisma
Good oratory, naive politically ... a disaster waiting to happen, this term.

10. The sprinkling of JFK is the speech writer that use to write for JFK
You're right about a disaster waiting to happen. Mrs. BO's slip up yesterday is just a sample of them not knowing how to act. Lord help us if we're attacked or if he gets Lieberman in there to encourage him to attack another country.

6. Thankfully, we'll have you to blame
if things go as badly as I suspect they might.

An emotion-charisma driven electorate who seems to think everything will work out because it 'feels good'.

11. work-I know it's absolutely stupid. If it was anything but President
of the country. I just don't understand people. Well for one thing I think alot of it is the teenagers. They should roll the voting age back to 21. They haven't lived enough to know the pitfalls of voting for empty words and not a life time of good works and deeds.

7. Yep, but I believe it will be Republicans again until at least 2012.
Obama cannot win the general election.

14. Have you not had any history classes yet? That's not how it works.


That's when the Republicans get back in.

On a completely unrelated note. Damn.
