96. Same here.
In 2008, I went without test strips so I could contribute to someone who said they would fix our broken health care system.

Instead, I found out that I gave money to a corporate appeaser who turned around and gave PhRMA and the racketeers who run the health scams everything they wanted and more.

As Harry Truman said "Given a choice between a Republican and someone who acts like a Republican, people will vote for the Real Republican all the time".

I am one of those who refused to give a single cent to those who sold out to the Republicans. And I am one of those who went to the ballot box and did not vote for the Blue Dog Republicrat congressional candidate.

I've had it with Democrats who rule like Republicans. As Eugene Debs said, "I'd rather vote for what I want and not get it than to vote for what I don't want and be stuck with it".

If Obama continues with his massive move to the right, he will lose in a 1980 type landslide and he'll take a bunch of Democratic Senators down with him.
