1. Is Cenk's personality an indication of how the country feels?

The last couple of videos that I have seen of TYT have show what I think is a pretty angry Cenk. I was wondering if that is an indication of how people in the country feel in general. Have we gone from being able to analyze things objectively even if we are not happy with the results to a point where we can simply no longer disguise our anger? Maybe it comes from not having a plan on how we can fix the problem. In the past, we could report on the problems knowing that Obama could essentially put new legislation through to remedy the situation. I think that since it is now clear that he has no intention of doing anything that a progressive would be in favor of, that possibility is now off the table and the hopelessness is setting in. I think that the angry Cenk is a sign of that.
