Too many people, too distracted by pop culture, so we get pop culture government.

you have got to be
kidding me.
you think people voted because of
pop culture???
if the rest of the GOP has their fingers so far off the pulse of the american people as you do, they're screwed.
people wanted a change from what they had for 8 years. in our political system, we have just two lame parties. if you want a change, you vote for the other party, end of story. not to mention the fact that the GOP put some 130 year old grumpy old "you kids get off my lawn," let's bomb everyone freakshow coupled with a half wit backwoods redneck from alaska of all places to be the representative of the whole of the american people???
the GOP got what they deserved after 8 years of insanity and then putting forward those two candidates for us to choose to represent us.
that's why people voted the way they did. face reality or the party is screwed. 450slcguy is right, it's time for the GOP to listen to the actual american people and start to represent them, rather than sit around and call everyone an idiot influenced by popular culture.
