Is pussyfooting around DADT and Public Option the real reason we are where we are. Jobs are very

[mfcorey1]

important, but somehow I think the others played a larger role.

1. No it's jobs.

[liberal N proud]

2. If any voter went to the polls thinking voting GOP would create jobs

will be sadly surprised when they GOP does nothing of the sort. In fact, expect the opposite. More jobs will be eliminated and more jobs will be sent overseas.

COUNT ON IT!

5. that is not the point - it is the perception that the D's did nothing to fight unemployment

[HillWilliam]

8. Almost right. Leave off the last word.

"The D's did nothing to fight."

There. Better. Right.

They tried being reasonable and you can't reason with unreasonable people. The pugs are crazy, single-minded, driven, and obsessively destructive. Nobody can reason with that and for the life of me I have no idea why they wasted time trying.

9. point taken

couple a lack of fire in their bellies with horrible economic conditions

and add to that, an inability to communicate to the general public and a bleak election-day portrait appears

[DrDan]

3. jobs jobs jobs - time to start listening

75% of Americans could not even tell you what DADT means without thinking about it for a bit.

[nofurylike]

4. no. people using those to divide dem's has something to do

with it. people using those to cause dem's to vote against their best interest does too.

but *shrub and other repukes really did more to cause it than anyone did.


peace

6. No, this is a show of how the majority of Americans feel about anything liberal.

[SkyDaddy7]

7. NO WAY!

It is JOBS...The really shitty part of this is unemployment is projected to be very high until 2012 so the crap we are watching right now is not over! I just feel Obama got elected at just the wrong time! Had McCain got elected he would not have managed TARP as well & there would not been a stimulus plan & unemployment would be in the teens. Then Obama could have run again in 2012 & America would have been done with Conservatism...Now we will have to have another economic collapse before this brain dead country gets it through their thick skulls we did not become the #1 nation in the world by starting wars & spending trillions over seas while cutting taxes for the most wealthy & corporations. We got to be that way by spending money here on our people & having the wealthy pay a little extra compared to what they are making to better america & empower the middle class.

When the scientist begin to leave within the next 20 yrs I will follow...America is on its way to a corporate controlled theocracy!
