Somewhere, somehow, things went haywire. The nation that built the Erie Canal and Hoover Dam and the transcontinental railroad can’t even build a tunnel beneath the Hudson River from New Jersey to New York.Ladies and gentlemen, your penny-wise pound-foolish Republican leadership in action.
And that's just in New Jersey. If these clowns get into Congress in the numbers now projected, nothing progressive will be done. In fact, one of the precepts of the Republican party's "Pledge to America" is to roll spending back to 2008 levels. Why then? Because that's before the stimulus and the bank bailouts of 2009. That's it. That's the purely arbitrary reason for picking that year.
Folks, there probably is an enthusiasm gap between the Dems and the Republicans. Do your best to persuade your neighbors that whether they're happy or not, they have to vote against these reactionaries on November 2.
