Lindy, As I have said - only the bond market will ruin the Obama love affair. Remember - 98% of the country has been promised the welfare state for free.

It is a sad testimony to the poor level of education of the populace.

Time to face reality. Most of the right is nowhere near as mad as we are.

I don't know about that. The percentages I'll throw here are arbitrary, but I'd say that roughly a third of the country are tea party supporters who are quite upset. Give another third to the moonbat wing of the Dems and you're left with the ever shrinking middle third.

That old saying, "It's the economy, stupid", rings true now more than ever. And when the fruits of higher taxes, raging inflation and energy shortages become evident, which IMO they will in the not too distant future, then the middle will be joining the tea party in droves.

Increasing polarization is happening and I see nothing in the pipeline to alter that trend.
