I do to. I think he personally is probably a very good man (though I personally never cared for Rahm very much) and most certainly he is the best next choice for President. But I have to agree with you. I too am sick of our side going to gunfights with water pistols (God I hated writing that). The problem is the rot and a lack of political will. The rot is the money and that the system has become dysfuntional and the peoples work does not get done. Both sides partake of that meal and that is also a problem. The dems are at least not antigov, try to govern and try to improve peoples lives. I will take this anyday over the other side (GOP) and their caustic regressiveness.
