And thus, I'm still not on board with Obama, because he just doesn't get it. I think you are wrong... I think you are not going down to the very base of the problem. The current politicians are pawns. They are controlled by the special interests. Those are the folks that are trying to do the evil things you suggest... to enhance their bottom line. And while you do have the Neo ideological element, they really don't have any support among the average voter. And I think Obama gets it. If you can't change the 'tone' of the debate, then you can't make any change. The far right has done a wonderful job of setting the 'tone', and you can see the results. I'm as much of a wonk as your are... show me the policy details. But if Hill gets elected, she will be pushing against a brick wall; she might make some incremental gains but the big picture won't change. We'll still be fighting for an inch when we need a mile. No, if you can get Obama nominated, and then elected with a good majority, I think the 'tone' changes. A very long shot but what we really need.
