WASHINGTON, Pa. (AP) - They've heard it all before—the tanking economy, the bleeding of jobs, the creeping hardship that never seems to ebb. And the desperate hope that hangs over everything and whispers that maybe, just maybe, tomorrow might be a tiny bit better.

In the river valley where Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia meet, the anticipation of change never really goes away. Because of that, it seems, people still are willing to give Barack Obama a chance as he maneuvers through the murkiness of a nation in transformation.

"No one is feeling satisfied with the state of the country," Derek Duffee says from behind his coffee bar's counter in Pennsylvania's Washington.

Zero and his handlers will eventually rue the day they ok’d that graphic poster - being totally clueless as to how “workable” it’s become.

“...... through the murkiness of a nation in transformation.”

They will see far more than a nation in transformation, if Obama and his idiots keep trying to tear down our country.

I went to school in Washington, Pa. There was a time when they had fabrication shops small mills etc. The unions and liberal DemocRATS helped them throw it all away.

Washington, Pa. is in very tough shape. Sad to see.
