Well, I will be less bitter if Obama wins the general election... But then again I support Obama not as the least evil but because I happen to actually like the guy??? What a concept??? But it seems that I am not alone here... Millions of other folks like him as well...

But the folks that Obama was talking about probably won't be less bitter because their circumstances won't change just because Obama might win in Novemeber...

What "sucks" isn't necessarilly the candidtaes this time around... What "sucks" is the situation our country is in...

We have had 4 decades of "trickle down" econiomics and Obama isn't going to be able to reverse that in 4 year or even 8 years... Corporatization is too institutionalized to be undone in one or two terms... Oral Roberts couldn't undo it... (lol)...

But what Obama can do is maybe get folks who are bitter and cling to "religion and guns" to understand that part of the reason that they aren't doing better is because they have been unwilling to place blame where blame is due... These folks have routinely voted against their own interests...

Now I'm not going to say that there has always been a choice because the Dems haven't exactly been clean themselves but given the current situation one party or the other is going to have to step to the plate and address the the imbalence of wealth and the Dems are in the best position to do that... Will they is another matter... BVut best position, yes...

The problem here is that the Clintons are way to embedded with corporatists...

As for Obama being arrogant??? One can't come from being an community organizer to being arrogant... Commmunity organizing is a very sobering experience... Yeah, arrogance, elitest are just PR manufactured... Nothing more and nothing less... And some folks will buy into it and others won't... That is the nature of campaigns...
