Well I agree with them in that case. You really have no right to complain about Obama if you left the Presidential ticket blank in 2012. Just saying.
I'll always complain about a liberal.
That being said, I have no illusions that who ever is elected President is going to make much difference. The reason the country is in the shape its in is in my view not because of the political leaders that have been elected but because as a culture we have lost our moral foundation. When I grew up people did the right thing day in and day out with no recognition or reward because the values of hard work and self reliance had been ingrained in them since birth.
Today it seems that the attitude is that if I vote for my team every four years and we win and everything will be better. That philosophy has not worked out very well, change can only happen from the bottom up. Conservatives who think the top of the ticket is going to make any meaningful change to the culture are just as deluded as libs who think the government giving them free stuff well make their lives better.
