Yes.  I am no more bothered by the prospects of a far-right Supreme 
court
than I am by a far-left one.  If there were the prospects of a 
Constitutionalist

or Libertarian Supreme Court, I might change my mind, but there isn't.

We've tried the right wing approach and also the left wing approach, 
then
we've tried a right winger who spends like a left winger.  None of it 
has made
much difference.  And isn't insanity basically doing the same thing 
over and
over but expecting a different result??

I think that a person who has had to get up in the cold wet winter 
morning
and go out to work else there's no money in the household is changed 
forever by
that.  Obama still thinks that there's some big mystical pie out there 
and it
just needs to be sliced up more equitably.  McCain still thinks that as 
long
as there are stocks and dividends abounding somewhere that mystically
translates into food and gasoline.  It is because, says I, neigher has 
ever
faced the
prospect of going to work or having no money.

Obama thinks the fish on his dinner plate came about because there is a 
huge
stash of fish somewhere and he's just getting his fair share.  McCain 
thinks
the fish on his dinner plate came to be because there are blips on one 
of his
accounts somewhere.  But Palin has pulled that fish out of the ocean 
and knows
better, knows better on a base and gut level and I think this might, 
just
might, keep her from falling altogether for either of the above two 
fallacies.

I don't think it would really happen.  But it is the only real 'change' 
that
is in the offing.
