It's getting depressing now. The Dems are willfully tossing the election and IMO another Republican administration will founder the US. [I've been a registered Rep since I was 18 - but I'm a 'small gov't, no gov't interference, no colony grabbing/war mongering, for gosh sake we -need- social programs Republican']
Problem is that the Dems are trying to be Republican-lite and just sucking at it. Obama is caving to the pressure and has gone as focus-group-crazy as the other pols. Why can't -someone- keep a spine and run for office?

Makes me very sad. He's changed his stance on so many issues - and is courting the religious nuts that castigated him 8 years ago.
It just drives me nuts.
