The election results this November will be horrifying.

46. Considering that some folks will vote 3rd party, I think 52-48% is a little high.

But I concur--what's horrifying is that the Grand Obstructionist Party is always guaranteed at least 40% of the vote, thanks in large part to brainwashing techniques from the not-really-liberal media and AM hate radio. The big whigs on the other side know how to exploit people's fears and their ignorance about how politics works, and they have clever ways of wording things to convince people to vote against their interests, whether it's "economic freedom" (which really means more spending power for millionaires while everyone else gets taxed higher) or "limited government" (a euphemism for cuts to working-class services and less business regulations). The only way more voters on the other side of the spectrum will wake up to reality is if something even more disastrous than the '08 recession happens, such as what happened on the Family Guy episode about the Tea Party.
