I remember it well. It’s one of the reasons I often say that electoral politics is dead in this country. I maintain that nothing will really change in this country until after the coming war.
I can remember when most people wouldn't think that thought, much less, say it out loud. Sadly, the American people have been pushed so hard, that it's now discussed openly, and ever more frequently.
I firmly believe that if Mitt Romney wins the nomination, we will almost assuredly wind up there.
