In fact, he doesn't need our votes any more and that scares me a bit.
But I am certainly not going to get in lock-step about something like Third Way nips and nicks to Social Security, just because it is Obama proposing it. That would make me a Fauxper or a Freeper - no critical thinking, just saluting.
