Radical and topical governmental article. Electoral Nullification in 2010

Republicans have attempted to use the filibuster and stalling tactics in congressional committees to effectively nullify the results of the 2006 and 2008 elections. They made the important work of the Obama Administration much more challenging but the numbers worked against them. They delayed and weakened but did not derail economic stimulus, health care reform, credit card reform, and now, this week, financial regulation reform. The upcoming 2010 mid-term elections represent their best chance yet to turn back the clock.

As we move through the summer, Democrats need to press their case before the American people that government can, and must, act to protect the people from the excesses of greed and corruption that permeate the American economic landscape. Multinational corporations can not be allowed to pollute our environment, take excessive financial risks that put the American economy at risk, nor deny health insurance and medical care to the most vulnerable among us.

The time is now Democrats to begin to re-energize our grass roots efforts to prosecute the case for responsible government acting in the public interest. Democrats must get to work telling the truth about an imperfect but progressive legislative agenda that will improve the quality of life and economic well-being of many millions of Americans. We need to remind voters that Democrats have always been the party of the people. The alternative message of Republicans — appealing to the worst instincts of the American people — paints a picture of a tyrannical government on the verge of destroying our freedom. That message has been resonating with many Americans who are angry and concerned about the future of our nation.

It’s time to engage in what will likely prove to be a political battle of epic proportions, a battle that will have profound consequences for our nation. Now is not the time to be silent, timid, or complacent in pressing the case that government is not the problem — it is in fact our last line of defense from those public and private actors whose greed and corruption are very much a threat to our American way of life.

Well what do you reckon about that one. It for sure was an fascinating study on the ongoing goings on in the domain of political relations
