As I've mentioned here before, I have voted for every Democratic presidential candidate since I was old enough to vote, starting with Dukakis in 1988 and lastly with Obama in 2008. I do not regret this. I believe I picked the lesser of two evils each time. But it seems my "audacity of hope" was just that and not based much in reality. I am slowly coming to the realization that what many of us had hoped would be our saviour from the corporations and big banks is no better (if not worse) than the robber-bankers we've had occupying the White House in the past. It appears to be business and government as usual. Matt Taibbi does a much better job explaining it than I can. Prepare to get pissed.
