"I am so glad that I am not alone as a dejected progressive/democrat. At this point, politically, I am homeless. I marvel (unhappily) on a daily basis on how myopic and stubborn many of those on the left have become in regards to President Obama.
I wonder if any of these people have ever truly had to make hard decisions in their lives. Have they not ever had to weigh all consequences? Have they never held a senior position at a company and had to examine and make a thoughtful decision that everyone at the company will not like, but the company as a whole will be better for?
These are real choices people, not a schoolyard fantasy, in which our guy, king of the geeks, is finally captain of the kickball team, and now he can pick us fellow geeks and play us all in sweet revenge against the jocks. He is not playing. He is leading. Not even one year in, I am willing to continue to trust his instinct, his grace, his patience and his measured hand. These are the reasons I voted for him. Hope for a leader, not hope for 'everything to be completely different from the previous guy regardless of the consequences', which is what I think many immature democrats are upset about. What a bunch of selfish babies."
