The advice I have for the left: instead of spending all the energies bitching and moaning about how and why Obama failed as koan has done, or insinuating that there would be no regrets from the left if Obama lost as stockman or Da Rat keeps saying, they could better focus their energies in singing a tune in harmony on how the current Republican dominated House is wrecking the country and not only halting progress and the the recovery but also reversing it. You know these same people will scream the loudest when an R takes over in the Oval Office. And, of course, they will blame Obama. Its partly the reason why Dems have elected only two liberals to the presidency in 30 years.

I don't see it quite that way. I consider myself a moderate Democrat. I worked hard for Obama and I'm disappointed. I'm kicking myself for not going with Hillary. But voting for any of the Republicans, with the possible exception of Huntsman, is like shooting oneself in the foot. The right supported Bush despite his deficits and the left and moderates will support Obama despite his executive ineptness. There's really no other choice. That doesn't mean we need to like it. There's really no other choice. All the whining and complaining about Obama? If he gets enough earfuls at his town meetings perhaps it might dawn on him that he wasn't elected to appease the right. ...insinuating that there would be no regrets from the left if Obama lost as stockman or Da Rat keeps saying

"they could better focus their energies in singing a tune in harmony on how the current Republican dominated House is wrecking the country and not only halting progress and the the recovery but also reversing it." We ARE saying that! But who's at the tip of the spear in the fight against the (R) House and the Tea Party? Our president, Mr. Obama. He hasn't been fighting.
