But where is the health care and where is the relief?

On Election Day, Democratic control is on the line - Yahoo! News

WASHINGTON – The Democratic Congress that enacted President Barack Obama's far-reaching health care law and plowed staggering sums into economic relief is at risk Tuesday in an election that promises to shake up the political order across the nation.

I'll go to the polls today and vote for Democrats but listen up, D's: Don't let this go to your heads. I'm only voting for you because the alternatives are so grim. If I had a decent choice I'd be long gone.

You blew it. Around the country, voters are fearful and angry, you bet. The political juice from all that fear and anger is going to this so called Tea party when it should be going to Democrats. Two years ago Democrats were elected to majorities in both houses of Congress and to the White House by an impressive margin to stand up to the guys who caused this mess and they spent the whole two years backing down. And now, if the pundits are right (I'm not sure they are, BTW) they're about to be spanked and when it's over we will all be worse off, even the people who vote to get the government out of their Medicare, people who got played for suckers by the wackos and the clowns.

Nobody wins today, folks, but a lot of people might lose. I hope one of them is not you.
