I put the Obama bumper sticker on my car.
I have to admit I'm somewhat ambivalent about it. There's no question that Obama has accomplished a lot in his presidency. But on the most important issue, the economy, he has been less than stellar.
The hell of it is he had some good ideas coming in. But he let the thugs in the GOP set the agenda. With a 70% approval rating, he should have come out fighting and put the GOP in the corner. Instead he's allowed them to obstruct pretty much everything. I really do believe that the GOP purposefully wants to keep the economy in the shitter because they know that's their only hope of winning the White House next year.
It seems like Obama finally has grown a little backbone. Time will tell if that backbone will last. I hope it does, because the prospect of a Perry presidency is not something I think I can handle.
