That will guarantee (almost) a Perry or even Romney or Christie or whoever victory. The fact that Obama in many ways reflects the interests of money and power is simply symptomatic of how our system works. Money is power. It takes vast amounts of money to succeed in politics. Otherwise, Bayard Rustin would already have been the first black president.Fiddlin Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08083633111240927563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954604416278665691.post-83968021459150103752011-09-19T13:15:52.044-06:002011-09-19T13:15:52.044-06:00Where are you?

It looks like a lot of fellow Democrats want to throw Obama under the bus and I can understand their frustration. The number of people Obama has thrown under the bus would give me carpa tunnel syndrome if I had to type them all!<br /><br />I am really starting to get nervous that Rick Perry would run over Obama in the presidential election.<br /><br />I think its time we started supporting Hillary to challenge Obama in a primary. I'm hoping we can start a grass roots movement in the blogosphere.<br /><br />Let's face the facts fellow Democrats. Obama has really turned out to be a poor president who has been bought by the Multi-national banks and corporations. His only ability is to give smooth sounding speeches and campaign!Michael Stivichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00588450203020249587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954604416278665691.post-68080763438093590652011-09-08T12:39:04.203-06:002011-09-08T12:39:04.203-06:00Where I live the demographic is damn near 100% rep...Where I live the demographic is damn near 100% republican. Most of them don't even understand what a republican is. They've just been conditioned by local media to hate democrats. <br /><br /> One of our neighbors hates big government zoning and leash laws.

If it were not for the liberal metro areas, Oregon might be a part of the red wasteland. <br />Still we've had our share of Dolts for politicians.<br />But the blue streak is strong, even though folks had to fight like hell on some issues- like no nukes, and death w dignity... often having to vote repeatedly to keep a law. But out of staters worked hard to not let gay marriage here be legal. We have some watered down civil union sub par item, not the same as marriage.Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14198689517878201943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954604416278665691.post-81673308785235840182011-09-05T16:58:28.238-06:002011-09-05T16:58:28.238-06:00JR, If I didn't live in this neighborhood, I c...JR, If I didn't live in this neighborhood, I couldn't live in Utah.

I've done a lot of protest marching but I've never been that scared. Mormon men were spitting at us, threatening us with rape, and shootings. But when you aren't a woman marching for your civil rights this is the cleanest, NICEST place in the world. Butter wouldn't melt in anyone's mouth.<br /><br />Baron, this is the land of the Stepford wives and children. We're the nicey nicey folks. Watch Mitt Romney. He has a real hard time with his emotions. He's very unused to women challangeing him, so when some woman in the audience heckles him he gets real real flustered. He doesn't know what to do with an emotion like anger.Utah Savagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16385093247915560752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954604416278665691.post-86401103365680888152011-09-05T08:34:07.639-06:002011-09-05T08:34:07.639-06:00When I was in Salt Lake City, I too was so stuck b...When I was in Salt Lake City, I too was so stuck by Utah. So squeaky clean, perfect. The politics is so different than Mass., where I am from. Good God, I was an alien on another planet. I thought someone would recognize the alien, and scoop me up and try to convert me. But I felt only benevolence. Mo one argued with me or harassed me, or even looked at me judgmentally. Everyone was so wholesome and healthy looking and yet walked around as if in a daze.the baronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14421419209516510308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954604416278665691.post-70504521279743475552011-09-04T23:52:13.308-06:002011-09-04T23:52:13.308-06:00...Mitt or Jon's vision of the perfect America...<i>...Mitt or Jon's vision of the perfect American Future if either of them wins the Presidential Jackpot.</i><br /><br />There is surely something bad in the water when Huntsman is the leftist in the republican nuthouse.<br /><br /><i>I feel like an exile living here.
