It seems to me that there's a lot of folks here who have just about had it with the leadership. I think Harry did a great job this week, but to me it seems a day late, and a few vertabrae short.
Tepid, waterish and pablumic - afraid to engage bullies, and then snickering when the thugs fall off the jungle gym (if you'll forgive the weak metaphor).
Let's put it this way; they're not exactly inspiring me.
Guess what? There's a LOT of Republicans towards the center of the aisle who feel exactly the same way about the failings of their own leadership (failings which are inarguably much, much worse for the direction of this country).
Isn't it about time that we had a Moderate Party? I'm not a marketing dude, so I'm not sure if that's the right name for it...and no, I don't mean playing for the Center. I mean finding the common ground, qualifying the things that bind us ALL. Left, right, and center.
It's probably a very short list, so it shouldn't be that hard to fit on a poster.
I don't know; maybe I'm nuts making a plea for sanity in this toxic environment.
Somebody just posted a poll here that showed 89% of Americans would readily consider 3rd party alternatives to the clusterfuck that passes for American Government now.
I sure would.
