Far from it. It's our fault - we let this get out of hand - and we're the only ones who can fix it.
There is no such thing as a good government, they don't represent you, they don't care about you. Don't fool yourself into thinking they do.

Wow! My guess is that Obama will win with a mandate, +330 electoral votes, what is your prediction?

I gotta go with your numbers, Joe. I can't see the electoral votes shifting from where they are within the next three weeks.

McCain is promising those who are presently supporting him...and threatening to stay home...a "knock out" punch in the debate, but that is strictly for him to remain status quo.

Sometimes all anyone need do is stare (like a moose in the headlights) at the numbers and all at once the futility of a McCain/Palin presidency fades to, dare I say... Black.

McCain nor the GOP will win. Matter of fact, they're gonna lose Congressional and Senate seats as well.
