One of the things that pisses me off is the huge number of what I call the 'uninformed'. I know there are lots of reasons for this. Apathy is only one. Busy lives, careers, scraping by from day to day, family illness, whatever.
There were many 'uninformed' that I encountered in 02 and 04. I wasn't paying attention to this factor in 00 (back then ... who knew what were about to face, yanno?). Anyway, of late I'm seeing many people who really *do* know what's going on.
And pretty much, they're pissed off. Even diehard Republicans know what's going on. While perhaps not exactly pissed, they're at least quieter. Not as strident and smug. If they were dogs, their tails would hanging low and limp.
The pulse, if you will, that I'm sensing is feeling very favorable to our side.
I'm hopeful ...... but cautious.
