Are the Democrats spineless and weak? Yes. Did they blow the health care debate by caving in to every Republican and Blue Dog Demand? You bet. Did they blow the Mass. Senate race in epic fashion by running a weak canidate who had no idea what she was doing? Obviously. But that is not our biggest problem.
Our biggest problem is that this is a nation of complete morons. It's not even debatable anymore. This democracy can't function with such a ignorant and ill-informed group of citizens. We elected Barack Obama one year ago, and we are now throwing his entire domestic agenda away to a brain dead underwear model, who will be taking the seat of the great Ted Kennedy. It almost makes sense. This nation had no patience, no sense of right and wrong, no perspective. Collectively, we are ignorant, hateful, full of vengeance and retribution. I am so sick of elections becoming gossip rag stories about sports teams and personalities. Out media is a cesspool. And quite honestly so is our popualtion. I about give up.
