Otherwise, you're right. But counting on Democrats learning how to play hard ball is optimistic. Republicans are just more ruthless. They don't much care about the long term damage they inflict on Americans as long as they get their way.

I think I'll buy some health insurance stock.
Oh, yeah! I'm angry too. REALLY angry. There are millions of angry people right now.

Anger is a powerful force indeed. Look at the Teabaggers. That is pure 100% unadulterated anger and it got Brown elected. If we could harness our anger like they have but turn it to constructive purposes we could really change things.

John
