And frankly, if we learned anything these last few years, it is that we need to skew TO THE LEFT. Sadly,Clinton would have made the same mistake O did, try to make friends with the opposition.

O did not disappoint because he did not act like Clinton, but that he acted TOO MUCH like Clinton, with the same appointees, and the same "let's bring people together" error. He need someone that willo GET IN THE RIGHT WING"S FACE and smash teeth!
