What I don’t understand is the incredible stupidity of the Demmies as they continue to plummet in the poles, when right in front of them is a woman with rock star potential, the kind of face, say if it were actually in charge of Treasury, or at least appointed to Undersec. in charge of creating the finance regs we need, she would immediately get face-time on all the majors (the venues of BS I don’t watch) over and over again as they love her (but seldom book her as she has no real power), and is so clearly appealing to the voting women who are walking away from the Dems and white folk in general (who are also doing the GOP perp walk, dummies that they are), that she would not only win them back but add a few disgruntled old conservatives to the mix.

And all the Dems would have to do is let this woman keep speaking, only with a seat of power to speak from, and the conversation would shift where the Dems need it to be to prevent the troglodytes from regaining control of Congress. Now, this is as clear to me as it is that Atty. Gen. Holder has become an empty suit, ditto my home state Governor, Deval Patrick, and the empty rumpled suit that pretends to be Harry Reid every day.

The G-D mistake the Demmies are making is they’re trying to do a rock festival with only one rock star…the O-man…and without someone else to shine alongside he’s very quickly going to become Fat Elvis playing the lounge. And while I love Barney Frank, c’mon, 65% of stupid America tunes him out for being gay and/or Jewish. So we need a real co-star for Obama, and Elizabeth Warren has been the obvious choice to me since it became clear that Obama had decided to cram his cabinet with members of the most common tribe to be found in D.C., the Knownuthinuus.

So, what gives with the Dems? Are they too stupid? Too corrupt? Too much in the thrall of the conmen and women that call themselves political advisors? All of the above? Inquiring Middle Class folks want to know before they hit rock bottom and get to call themselves the New Po’.

I would love to see a draft movement.

My sense is that Warren would have three main groups to work with: 1) progressives who focus on financial regulation, 2) disenchanted Hillary supporters who still see identity politics as important, and 3) moderate/independent Democrats who see Obama pushing on too many policy fronts when the economy needs urgent repair.

Building a voter base would require people, time and money. And the clock is running. I have heard many former Obama supporters light up to the idea of a Warren candidacy, but is this anything more than wishful thinking?

He was the only one between FDR and now that ever gave two thoughts about the middle class. Alas he also gave us Vietnam. So Medicare and Civil Rights , huge achievements by themselves , are tarnished.

Can anyone thing of any legislation that was passed in the last 30 years that benefited the middle class? I really can’t. Sure a little morsel of cake here and there, but nothing as substantive as Medicare.

Imagine going through all hell to try to make HCR fit a 10 year budget projection that doesn’t mean shit to save 45,000 Americans from dying from lack of access to our piss poor Health Care system while cavalierly signing off on 680 Billion in Defense appropriations. That’s no change there.

If they left a 100 billion in change then that would have been one less excuse for this HCR bill not getting through. Then we would be treated to Susan Collins whining about the Maine shipyards not getting destroyers to build that the navy doesn’t want at 3 Billion a crack.

They are all bad. If they don’t participate then the silence is complicity.

That’s why Barack Obama will do one term and be gone. He surrounded himself with ambitious young people like himself who are headed for their pay off in the private sector. They don’t give a shit. He had a hell of an election team, then he had a lousy transition team and ended up with corrupt advisers that purposely keep guys like Volcker locked out of policy meetings.

The end result is Wall Street is gaining more and more power and the banks are starting to slowly cave in under the weight of 300,000 foreclosures a month. In one year we will be back to 2008 again. No one person can change this. The American people can but they neatly divided us so we really can’t.

I saw my next door fricking neighbor on TV at the teabaggers convention in DC. They were interviewing her. Recently she was telling me she works for a fast growing hospital who’s CEO just got a huge 8 figure bonus. Then they all got 10% pay cuts and a increased premium on their health insurance.

Yeah, she had a shit load of reasons to be there. We are just a bunch of dumb fucks yelling at each other as the assholes in DC and Wall Street laugh and point. We get what we deserve. Nothing. No one is asking for a hand out, we are just asking for them to obey the fucking laws they wrote and stop stealing us blind.

That just asking a little bit too much.
