The lesser of two evils.

99. Looks like somebody has no clue about me or what I'm talking about.

I'm not sad the Democrats are winning, after all, as I said, the alternative is worse. But what does sadden me is the fact that the Democratic party has moved steadily to the right for forty years. This move has left us with a two party system where one party represents the center right(a position formerly occupied Eisenhower Republicans) and the other party represents batshit crazy conservatives. Where, in this system, is the voice of the left? It has been effectively silenced, at least as far as making actual policy is concerned.

I mean really now, we've gone from FDR, who essentially wanted a single payer UHC, to Obama and today's Democrats, who adapted a Republican inspired health care policy. You don't find that the least bit disturbing?

Oh, and I'm not a socialist, nor am I looking for a socialist utopia. But hey, thanks for making a crack that sounds like something a Bircher would say. It says a lot about you, none of it good.
