Re: President Barack Obama!
Bill was a self-professed liberal just as GWB was a self-professed conservative and they all end up governing in the middle somewhere. That's why I'm not worried about Barak's "liberal" tag. He'll either govern in the middle or try to do some lefty stuff and conservatives will galvanized against him and elect majorities as you mentioned. That's what Dems did to GW and neither side can get anything substantive done, in my opinion. My hope is that we as a nation will do more to help people rather than merely protect our interests. I don't see HIl or McCain even trying to do that. At least Barak talks about it and this hope is what I think fuels the grass-roots response from the younger voters. They want things to be better, not more of the same. Whether he can deliver on that is questionable at best, but at least he has a chance at actually doing it, thus will prob get my vote. It'll be the first time I voted for a Dem since I started voting. If I don't vote it'll be the first election where I didn't vote. Hey, these are just my opinions. Mine stink just as much as everybody else's.
