You thought that a year ago last November, DougR. Here is the way it looks to me. First off, the trend towards approval has already started on the health plan. Once small business owners figured out that they would get help, and parents found that they could keep their kids on until 26, and pre-existing conditions are gone, and capped benefits are gone, the trend will be the same as it was for Medicare and SS. Not good for ideologues like DR.

The President is now moving on to redoing the education system, and getting the greedy bastards who were willing to leave a generation of kids in poverty, just so they could pad a profit margin, out of the business. Look for populist moves in this area that will begin to put our system right again after the plunder by greedy Republicans.

There is already a move to rein in these greedy pricks in financial services, and that will be very popular.

According to many economists, the recession will end next week with the announcement of the jobs number. Of course the Repubs will attempt to downplay the Presidents role, even though when the numbers didn't go down they said he had to own them. But that is because they are lying pricks who really aren't about what is good for the country.

All these things will start a trend, in fact they already have. And that trend will be acceptance that we have a leader who takes a studied approach and is going to pursue the mandate he was given. And that is not good for DougR's gods.

And by the way, this horseshit the teabaggers are foisting on the public about the upcoming elections giving them the ability to repeal healthcare is another example of their lying ways. It would take 67 votes to overturn a Presidential veto. The Repubs are currently at 41. There is not one chance in hell that they can pickup 16 seats. They will be hard pressed to pick up 5. But they will continue to lie and mislead. They seem to figure that if the truth doesn't suit them, just make up a new truth. But this President has them pegged. Yeah..... I am with him. Please, DougR, send letters and tell your gods to keep pursuing this lying and misleading road. See you at the polls.
