Whoa, I just figured out what the elitists, on both sides are up to......
class warfare, with a twist. Think about it, get enough people on either party with their retirements, and savings, and all of it on the line, and let them slug it out with folks that are expats of the system or have nothing. Ignite poor republican against middle class republican, poor Dem against middle class Dem, and it gets real easy for the rich to pull the middle class "up" to their way of thinking, regardless of party. It's just further fracturing of the electorate, or in business "consolidation through division".

Most of the argument here, is between those who have something to lose and those who don't. And now, those who don't know who the ones are who have. That's crazy. Brilliant politics.

What do you all think?????

1. I think you give them too much credit (so to speak)
"They" ran the ship of state aground and "they" don't have a friggin' clue what to do about it.

Not much more to it than that.
