Here it is Chinu and no one knows politics like ChrisMathews; and all we have been saying.

Now watching Chris Mathews on Charlie Rose talk about Obama. He said and I agree: He had we center left folks all worked up waiting for our marching orders to go forth and change things, and then he left us at the alter and said watch what we do.

Remember Obama, Gibbs and Rahm even told we liberals to quit whining; and after we had put our heart souls into that guy.

That is exactly what happened! And people, including Obama lovers, need to digest that because it is the truth.

I don't know what comes next, but that is what happened.
