Who here feels not much will change after 01/20/2009 ?
Advertisements [?]
I read all sorts of stuff and hear many different opinions on radio and blogs .
This is not about Hillary or Obama specific . Greg Palast feels the elections are rigged as always .
I am at the point based on what I hear lately that most issues won't change much if at all .
I don't see how we will get out of Iraq or how all the issues will change anytime soon .
I don't intend to be a downer here , I am just curious how others feel .
Please lets not make this a Hillary / Obama thing . This is not what I am asking . I know all about that issue .

Deep, dark depression, excessive misery
If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all
Gloom, despair, and agony on me

1. Here!
Not seeing real change coming. Business as usual- us getting screwed and the 1%ers living it up.

77. Sadly I have to agree. And with no candidate taking climate change seriously
the only change I see for us in the future is the sort that none of us would wish on our worst enemies.
I love how it is now climate change and, no longer Global Warming.

14. Isn't this is what many people have been doing ?
We have been writing and calling and protesting and emailing since 2000 .
People like Cindy Sheehan went far out there and look what happened .
If the people who are elected won't listen then we are told we need to vote them out , well this is what we did in 2006 and here we are now .
It's endless and it's becoming timeless .
We have been warned for decades where we were headed and we certainly found the warning to be true .
And yet no Chimpeachment on the table

35. The Problem Is
that the pressure has been on for 8 years, no results, just frustrating head banging. That is why I have little faith that things will change.
that DUmmy gets it.

47. 70% oppose the war
And many now see the light on Republican economic policy. That is a direct result of activists "banging their head" and screaming at anybody who would listen. Change is coming. The only question at this point is the degree of change we're going to demand.
And yet the dems arent even promising to pullout of Iraq.

10. There will be an instant change in the world's perception of the US and that will be a lot
The minute the next President is sworn in, no matter who it is, the world will feel immediate relief. It will be reflected in everything you see.
LMAO
