The Democrats have the Presidency and the Senate, but it is like they are the minority party in federal government, not acting like the majority party AT ALL.
The Progressive, social liberal and fiscally responsible wing of the Democrats has to give us an honest option in 2012 election, like Ralph Nader. Has to !! We can not dither along being un-led another 4 years as a Nation.
Some , not i, but some protested President Obama's failure to end the wars, balance the budget with an end to the Bush tax cuts for the comfortably rich and wasteful spending cuts ,,, by voting Republican. Boy did that BACKFIRE on the Nation !! With a 2 party system, and no 'vote of no confidence' like in England, what are voters to do every 2 years between presidential elections?
You would think a smart well-educated guy like President Obama would get the point of low poll ratings among Americans to "change" his weak, passive, and too Conservative governing style ,,,
