Tom and Raeanne visited tonight. As always, the conversation got around to politics. Tom called the democrats in the house and the senate "the most feckless group of people imaginable." Tom's lost that sense of optimistic hope so many felt upon the election of President Obama; he feels weary.
"Well, not ALL of them. There's Dennis Kucinich" I countered (Gwen More, Nick Rahall and Maxine Waters too).
But I put the blame for the sagging popular support for the stimulus package on squarely on President Obama. HE is the leader. HE must be the one to make the case to the American people. And that shouldn't be very difficult, if he were to be breathtakingly honest.
More of this later today.
