Now that liberals are frustrated, cooler heads might remember that Obama was not always on point during the 08 primaries, and Dick Polman once laid in on Obama during the primaries with Clinton, in his appearance on Charlie Rose. I am an agnostic either way. If Romney squeaks by, things get harder for me, not easier, towards the end of his first term. Should the President prevail, then I am stuck with the status quo, minority entitlement indignation. I also think the embattled boy wonder did not do all that badly, to the extent I seriously paid any attention. I happen to agree with David Brooks on his critique of the 47% that disability entitlement creates a culture of dependency, and I'd add to that, entrapment, but what I'd argue with conservative think tanks is why they do not invest money in technical flexibility so that those of us who still have cognitive ability and capacity can engage. American Paratransit systems, transportation infrastructure, is deplorable, for one, outside of the DC metro in the federal district. If the right would give me answers, as opposed to pity, I'd be in their column, and Niall, some of your shine has diminished, as I prefer independence to partisanship, and the last time I looked, you're British, and we fought a revolution to get what is now the Commonwealth out of our internal affairs? (OMG, does this mean he doesn't turn spastic on anymore?) My jury is in sequester on that.
