Shoulda, coulda, woulda. Elections have consequences. Public opinion counts and we are losing that battle.

No we are not.

What the problem is you confuse manufactured polling data with public opinion. You also seem unable to grasp the concept that we are a Constitutional Republic, NOT a Direct Democracy.

What the polls claim people think about an issue is utterly irreverent to what should be done here. That the problem with the DC Old boy's club.

Every issue is addressed in terms of how it will impact the next election. MAYBE one time the Old Boy's club should think about what state of the world is going to be in 5-10-15 years IF the DC Old Boys continue sitting on their thumbs when it comes to Iran.

Leaders lead, media whores watch polls and talk themselves into doing nothing.
