Yes: like shooting fish in a barrel.
The problem is that so many people decided to willfully deceive themselves, went with the preconceived ideas and tuned out any critical thinking.
Politics as a cult of celebrity. Our side is not immune neither, btw: we are looking for a Leader that will take us to the promised land too. It’s like electing a king or a queen or a messiah. How about electing the right people to the congress so the supreme leader becomes irrelevant? Or at least much less important.
I have no problem with running our own 0bama against 0bama. It would be image vs image. You beat an Obama with an Obama 2.0
Scott Brown is an 0bama type candidate. He has such a good image the liberal women were voting for him. It was cool and “in” to be a Scott Brown supporter. Doug Flutie was a very public supporter and who was the last pol he endorsed? Hillary in the primaries
