>>It is all about knee-jerk partisanship. That is all they have any more.<< Wall street and the large corporations through their lobbyists have so much power no one seems to be able to challenge them. All that TARP mney went to pay off the big banks gambling debts e.g. CDs's and CDO's. Trillions, and almost nothing for the middle class. And the rich and powerful are taking advantage of the common man, and the right wing common man is helping them because they do not understand the big money's motives. All the big money has to do is rile up the right wing with fear, or hate against liberals and they will do whatever Wall street wants. It is ironic, we can see how powerful Wall street is with the trillion dollar bail outs of the banks by Bush, because he failed to regulate them, and so they lost trillions gambling. I never see the right wing make this connection i.e bush did not regulate banks, banks lost rillions gambling and Joe six pack is not only picking up the tab for the banks losses, but helping them do it again?? So the right wing correctly hates Wall street, but then does their bidding?
