<<The aggrieved honkies, still smarting over a black president, turned out in force to dismantle the "boys" presidency>> Agree. <<Since the voters who had been motivated in the 2008 presidential election had little inspiration in 2010, they stayed home>> As Chris mathews said Obama left us at the alter. He not only disbanded his populist young peoples ground campaign he told the liberals to quit whining. Not exactly a motivational act. And he moved right immediately after being elected. Those are the facts. <<Many of these folks didn't become enamored of things political in 2008, they simply voted for an inspirational leader, and absent his presence on the ballot in 2010, they simply passed>> See above. <<To downplay the overwhelming influence of race in this election misses the point>> In this election it is as much about right versus left as it is about black versus white e.g. medicare, the social safety net/New Deal and womens rights. <<A total unfeeling, incompetent, perhaps stupid, ultra wealthy man who has publicly voiced rejection of 47% of the electorate remains within striking distance>> Romney is stupid and a sociopath of the highest order. <<That is your specific reason>> After the election we will see what Obama is really about. And if he extends those Bush tax cuts, guts SS or medicare or backs down on raising the debt limit, I am going to set myself on fire in protest.
