What on earth did you say? I don't understand a bit of it! I think you've lost it.

Since both parties basically serve the top 10% of the nation at best, there will be little difference. There hasn't been any real difference in the past when parties flipped, why would it be any different this time. It makes no sense for anyone to follower either party unless you are a large business. Than perhaps you will receive some benefit. Typically more than 90% of our population suffers from the free trade agreements that both parties push for the 10% that contribute to their reelections. Things will get better for those people, unless of course the bottom falls out and than, guess what the 90% will suffer even worse. Wake up it is time for those of you who support the parties that keep sticking it to you, to change your world view. You just have to follow the money to see who runs things. I wish I didn't feel this way, but times are not looking to get any better for my family, how about yours? Both parties have only made things better for that top percentage group.

More selling of our country to the oligarcy, the top 10%, large corporations.

Obama will wear out his "veto pen". At least now, if you care to pay attention, you will know who the "party of no" is.

I can only quote Rev. Edward Everett Hale, chaplain of the U S Senate and author of "The Man Without a Country". When he was asked "Do you pray for Congress?", Rev Hale replied "I look at Congress and pray for the country." Let us pray.

I think we all know by now it's all about the Republican Party and the Democratic Party. The country plays second fiddle to their love affair with themselves.

So true! We are rapidly breeding a lot of sociopaths and are voting them into office. Folks may need to refresh your memories about psychopathic personalities, and the symptoms thereof, so we can perhaps recognize them when we meet them or know about their behavior--before we vote them into office.

We need to push for impeachment of the Muslim community organizer in Washington and his cronies so we can get out from under thumb from his Muslim Brotherhood friends before they try to make America into a sharia state. Also, push to prosecute Hillary Rodamn Clinton for her role in the murder of the 4 Americans in Benghazi while on her watch, and her subsequent role in the events that lead up to it. And then take back our country 'WE THE PEOPLE'. We outnumber them(by force if need be, just as it is directed in the U.S. Constitution) so our future children can be free...

Dalton, on what planet do you reside?

Dalton- Go back to watching Faux News and leave the rest of us alone.

Go back and give some thought to what Dalton is saying---Many people just do not think about or understand what is happening here, and around the world---much like the Germans with Hitler---until it is too late.

Nothing changes. The red team and the blue team all play for the same owners. Every couple of years we are provided the illusion of a choice and every couple of years the American people believe this time is different. Pavlov's dogs would have learned by now.

Somewhere in the middle of this rhetoric is some common sense.
I would truly hope that the extremes do not rule public thought.
