1. I think you may have overstated this outcome a bit.

These are very unlikely:

2014 might usher in a resurgent tea party/ isolationist neo-christianist congress and senate majority. Young voters will turn away in droves. Hillary Clinton would have no chance in 2016.

Obamacare repealed.

Women's rights reduced.

Voter's rights restricted.

Wars without end and bodies piled up for years to come. Dead children by our own weapons.

These are all possible outcomes, yet are a hell of a lot more likely than us doing any damn bit of good by shock and awe 2013: the sequel!
