203. I watched it happen, couldn't do anything with no help from the President
Darn I was watching the long lines aon polling day, people proud and optimistic.

Obama should have kept talking to us, honestly. He could have done more of an FDR type approach. I knew conservatives who wanted single payer or expanded M edicare and they trusted the president to fight for us, stand up for us. And conservatives have also been sick of this wasteful expensive and ultimately useless war in Afghanistan (and Pakistan...).

Well, maybe the big banksters will 'let' Obama get reelected because he helped them out. Obama didn't betray them, did he? Are any going to be peosecuted?
