I was thinking about this earlier today - it stuns me that the Republican party put up a candidate who left office with a 34% approval rating as governor.
Now we have people bitching that our "country is divided". Hello? Our country has always been divided with nearly half of us Republican and Half of us Democrats, and the rest of us stuck someplace in the middle or otherwise not caring.
Us Americans are spoiled rotten. We have air conditioning and 24 hour cable television and Al Gore's Internet; I can hop in my truck and drive all the way across country without having to ever show my "papers". Our government has zero impact on our daily life. We have unlimited opportunity here in the US and yet all we do is bitch...
