Obama supporters live in a fantasy land, he has no original ideas about anything, unity, offered by GW Bush, and former backstabbing Dem candidate Kerry hope without compassion. Obama is still the masked candidate, no one knows including his supporters where he stands on the most important issues of the time. Intends to debate McCain on he was against the war that McCain intends to continues, how will he do that, he never VOTED against the war, and everyone knows what he said in a speech, when he wasn't even in the senate, means nothing. I for one cannot take his word. Now more than ever he speaks in the words of John Edwards, but he is not Edwards, and will do nothing if he happens to be lucky enough to become President, because a group of people have been caught up in a fairy tale and think putting a different face on the President will automatically make people in other countries think the USA has changed, that's really a big laugh. At least Clinton is a more realistic
candidate, and knows that the budget has to be balanced, or nothing will get done, like healthcare for all, you can't balance the budget until we are out of Iraq. But Dems other than O or H have no choice other than voting for a continuing neo-con USA.

America will continue to see more of same, because none of the candidates will bring about any improvements, I am not inspired by a big overgrown, person of color who lives in a
dream land.

Perfect. No amount of tax tinkering and Fed slight of hand can fix an economy that has starved its consumers into bankruptcy. Serious remedies that address tying the minimum wage to productivity growth are past due. While it is not ever going to be politicaly possible to redress the excesses of the Republican dynasty, the correct thing to do for both the working class AND the wealthy is to start to restore the conditions that created the most vaunted market in the world, namely, that American workers were highly paid.

Now that the smash and grab party is at and end because of having smashed everything, it is time for the rich and would be rich to sober up. Indeed, they will have to. There is little flesh left to be picked from the bones of what was a great nation.
