On the surface,

the Repubs taking Ted Kennedy's seat in Massachusettes looks pretty crazy, BUT, it's not. Most of us, who had such high hopes for Obama have been WAY disappointed. What has he done, other than being GWB light? Same ol' shit, as far as I can see. No change in the wars, Wall St and bankers getting big $. NO transparency, backroom deals whenever you need to buy a vote. No 'across the aisle' deals, which is mostly the Repubs fault, but hey, who thought they would cooperate. Obama had a chance to be something new and different, but he blew it. Spending too much time on health care and global warming, when he should have dealt more with the main issue, that is the economy that Bush trashed. Also, he has been too much of a gentleman and not focused on the fact that the previous clowns took us to the brink of bankruptcy and it is gonna take MANY YEARS to fix the damage they did. Let's hope it's not too late now. I'm afraid he blew it. Too bad, we needed a change, and all we got was hope, and now that's gone, unless he gets back in the game, BIG TIME. Let's just hope this was a wake up call....

bamboozled, hornswaggled, tunaed, however you want to say it, we Liberals were taken to the cleaners in this last election. Should have known, Obama from Illinois. Nothing good can be said of Illinois politics. As Judge Judy so aptly puts it,"Don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining."
