I guess when you're a millionaire (which is seemingly a basic requirement of entering politics these days) the reality of the economic downfall doesn't really affect your life as directly, so the personal urgency just isn't felt.
And yeah, career politicians don't help....I guess I'm just not convinced a bunch of tea-partiers are the answer either. Guess we'll see...

TBQH, I really don't mind the "tea party". Most of the people are just firm believers in the constitution, they are fiscally conservative and are really what the Republican Party use to be.
They just like the other parties have a couple of idiots (palin and the other women) that make them all look like idiots. But I don't seem to hear anything about Pelosi, and Barny Franke...
