Because you went so very very deep, I have a question in return for you. Given: the current situation is so bad, that it is impossible to Believe it could get worse.
In this instance, would it be true that any potential change could be perceived as a change for the better, because when you have reached that point, you truly believe nothing could make things worse?
I ask this for several reasons: as anogete knows, my life got superduper-mr.hooper sucky recently, and is now getting better. At the lowest point of the low, I truly believed (and still believe) that change was necessary to happen, to keep me alive, to make my life worth living again. Each day gets minutely better(some days more than minutely), and I would never ever want to go back to the way things were(I never want to be the person who doesn't care if she lives or dies ever again...EVER!)
So, being there right now, I can, whether I buy it or not, see how people want Barack Obama and how they want "CHANGE". I can see how they are tired of the same old crap. I can understand (and personally agree)that McCain promises the "same old crap".
What I wish is that people would define the "change" that they want and hold all of our government, from the lowest level to the highest, to that standard.
