Totally agree. I think Washington is so busy pandering to the special interest groups that they've totally lost touch with the average American. Those that work, and work hard, are currently squarely in the crosshairs. This isn't a party issue, it's business as usual on both sides. I feel like the current choice is between bad and worse.

Something has to be done, because the course we are on cannot be sustained. However, I worry that we don't have anyone in office with the balls to do what needs to be done. I don't think we have anyone who will cut back the glutton of government spending, but it has to happen.
