Lots of us coasted through the 90s. Times were good, I was raising a family and working on a career. I was pretty damn complacent...lots of people were. Why not? We had a real President that actually believed in competency and public service. I just assumed everyone would see through the bullshit of the Republican Party and their phony political Inquisition. I wasn't expecting a Supreme Court to hi-jack the election, nor was I expecting Republican control of electronic voting systems. I got no one to blame but myself.
2000 was a wake-up call and I've become more politically aware than at any time in my life (and I graduated with a PoliSci degree in the 70s).
