Ake,

Well, I for one, am completely incensed over the $700B fleecing of the US Treasury... I wholeheartedly disagree with Obama on this one and it will take alot of the pleasure outta going to the polls and voting for him... However, I will hold my nose and do the deed...

But you are right about the US being ripe for revolution and I think that seeing Obama elected will allow alot of people who have been blinded by cynicism to see the possibilities needed for people to unite against thias corrupt system... Yeah, I know that is a stretch, a leap of faith, but that's what I feel is the next step toward the revolution...

But I don't see the revolution taking place in a conventional manner but one where "Southern Man" has been squeezed too the max and turns against the "Southern Strategy" and moves from just being pissed off that Stroker Ace got bumped out of the race in the last lap to militancy... A lot of very rich people have been using the South as their personal "playground"... They drive into the South with their $1M motor homes with toys in tow... Meanwhile, Southern Man is makin' $12 a hour, driving a 10 year old pickup truck or used SUV, owes more than he owns and feels as if he has been left behind... I have long predicted here that when Southern Man turns against Boss Hog that there will be nothing that Boss Hog will be able to do to get him back into the fold... When that occurs, the South will no longer be a safe haven for Boss Hog and his toys... That will be the beginning of the revolution because even today it is Southern Man who is the fiercest defender of Boss Hog... That is going to change!!!

Now back to the debates...
