Doesn't matter what the economy is doing when we have an effective unemployment rate of 15 to 20%. Things are very bad. People are desparate. You say Warren is Obama's right to pick. True, but shouldn't he pay a little attention to his base? This is a democracy and if Obama wants the liberal vote he has to pass some of the things we want. If he doesn't want to do that then do not expect our vote. And using the ploy that we liberals have no place to turn(which is true-lol) is too cynical and Machiavellian for my taste. Obama has we liberals in a bind (we cannot vote for anyone to right of center), so he takes advantage of that? That breeds resentment which is what you are seeing on the left. So many may just stay home in November, especially independents. Not samrt, but what will probably happen. Man, you are one true believer. Is there anything Obama could do that you would critisize?
