I think it's more than just massive spending, but a plethora of other concerns. What the right has failed to understand is the lack of ubiquitity in the U.S. Every American has a personal agenda. Meanwhile the right becomes more finite (read: narrow minded) in their beliefs on a daily basis. The left? I'm still unsure if they'll get their collective act together to allow Hillary to run, or even have an effective candidate. She'd be smart
not to run if the Dems can't get a collective stance on issues.
Libertarian and/or any other Third Party might/will be the way to go - for simple choice as well as agenda. One can only hope.
