We keep enabling Dems who act like rethugs, we will keep getting the same thing. But the Dems like to talk liberal when they're campaigning. That's always nice. Its not so nice when afterwards, when they're in office & they're doing all to help big business & screwing us over while making excuses, is when its not so nice. And its getting old.

We needed that change Obama talked about in 08 & the country went crazy for. We still do.
