This is disappointing, at best, I had hoped for better from the WSJ.
One of the biggest problems with our political system today is too many entrenched, stale politicians who know the system, but lack fresh ideas. Hillary is NOT a solution; she is another polarizing (albeit to a much lesser degree than zero) liberal who will do little to manage the country well other than capitalizing on some of the worst of zero's ideas and keep this country lurching to the left.
By now, liberals know how much they can get away with and the voters will let them. zero has shown them that communism is within their grasp, all they have to do is reach out and take it!! The voters have shown that, despite the outrage, we are unwilling to descend en mass on Washington with tar andf feathers or pistols at the ready. We have given up our passion and traded it in for apathy and an unrealistic belief that the corrupt and broken system we have today will somehow save us from the guaranteed future we have if we do nothing but cast votes that will likely end up either being "lost" or corrupted by electronic voting machines that have no audit trails or accountability. After all, bits is bits.
I would hope that by 2012, the Dems can do a little better than run a retread like HitLIARy against zero and whomever we conservatives select. As things stand today, America cannot continue on this path, but I don't see a fork in the road ahead for us to take that provides better options for this country.
What you say is the truth, unfortunately. *sigh*
