When you're in a relationship with someone and it's going sour, and you don't want it to go sour, you try and think so hard what words you can possibly say that will change the other person's mind. Well, we're all in that predicament now. And I've thought long and hard about what we can say that will change some minds:
Do not hand America back over to Wall Street.
Someone questioned why I use the name of my book as the title of my diary. Although my book isn't entirely about Americans being stupid, this election, these debates, is entirely about America being stupid. Possibly, largely in part having to do with the above statement. And largely in part having to do with Romney's new tax plan and his not telling the country what exactly it is. (Plus it's mathematically impossible- but that's not relevant. If Romney opens his mouth and says that it is possible, that's good enough for millions as we all know.) However, people do understand Wall St. I would love MoveOn or some group to do a commercial contrasting Main St. and Wall St. Do not hand America back over to Wall St. Please.
