My favorite post of the year so far, is the one by chainsaw, quoting from a Czech paper, that captures the real problem that you were alluding to — here is that post from another thread:
Thank you, chainsaw.

Amen....
Some people have the vocabulary to sum up things in a way you can understand.
This quote was translated into English from an article appearing in the Czech Republic as published in the Prager Zeitung of 28 April 2010 .
“The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president.”
“The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince.
The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool.
It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.”

That pretty well sums it up doesn’t it. I agree that it is Grade A stuff. Nice call.
We have Obama. We have McCain. We have Hayworth.
Obama is the worst the Left had to offer.
McCain was the worst our side had to offer.
Hayworth is a pretty decent guy.
And yet, in August, the people of Arizona are being encouraged to put our ‘worst’ out there again.
I harp on this, because it is the end product the material presented referenced. We have an addled populace, even on our own side.
Our nation is in grave danger. It has fallen and it can’t get up.
Either we get our act together, or this nation won’t remain strong for much beyond five to ten more years.
