<<This country is not very liberal; not very progressive and its voters not very well informed. That is the sad reality of 2010. I am not willing to throw out what's left of the baby with the wash on some misguided hoped for liberal principles.>> You are wrong tejek. Obama won on a very liberal campaign platform. How did he do that if the country is so conservative? The dems lost in 2010 because as soon as he was elected he started moving to the right. He did not take on the Wall Street crooks, get out of the wars, fight the MIC, close gitmo, prosecute the torturers, or fight the growing plutocratic danger, or address the depression head on like FDR did. I repeat. Obama won on a very liberal platform. How did he do that?
