I wish it were that simple. These flaws seem apparent even to me and I haven’t followed Obama news much, avoid it as a matter of fact, I find the man odious. The fact is most people don’t look past the superficial and many young people and senile demonrats will vote for NObama just because he is a Demonrat and a good looking(not to me)black man.
Our political system is, unfortunately, binary.
The interlude of Republican government (1994-2006) for which so many worked so hard was a failure. It may yet prove to have been a catastrophe.
Now, I know all about the media, and Clinton, and the Gang of 14, and all that crap - but the fact is, the average voter, when he thinks about "change" is thinking about firing George W. Bush and not letting anyone closely related politically to him near the White House for 50 years.
I still think Obama is going to lose, because he is so stunningly unqualified - but he fall of the Republicans in entirely their own fault - and if you believe in the theories which underly our system, it's very well deserved.
