Scolding the people who don't vote isn't going to get them to vote, Steve. Let's face it, half of America thinks it makes no difference - and they've got a point. It takes a truly failed president like Bush to get people to the polls, and that only lasts for a brief time.

I don't see the Obama presidency as getting people to say, "YEAH! Voting MATTERS! I'm going to do it every time from now on."

To me, America is looking more and more like a failed state, running on superpower momentum, accumulated wealth and fumes.
