the only Sin is Stupidity." Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Bank failures, financial industry off the rails. There is no cover for Republicans on this.
With this issue there is a clear link to all the Enron-like shenanigans and the current financial crisis. Hit this on the phones and with every persuadable voter you know. There is a straight line between Ken Lay, WorldCom and Republican rule. Its called dereliction of duty. Throw in a little Phill Gramm to complete the picture. Forget Palin, she'd irrelevant in the this race. Its the economy stupid!! Except this time it is not just a campaign slogan. We are on the brink of Deression II, so its time for the Second New Deal. The Republicans have been running against the New Deal since FDR. Well now they have run out of steam and its time to put all the trickle-down, "government regulation=socialism," garbage away and bury it for good.
I still worry that Obama may be running for Captain of the Titanic, but this is the chance we have. I don't want to live in a third world country and neither do you. Get to work. Calm in the storm--Obama and the movement behind him is the best chance America has.
