What Obama really said about small town voters...

Here's the actual full quote...
"You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are going to regenerate and they have not," he went on. "And it's not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."

Gee, quite different than what you have heard from the Clinton and Republic camps ain't it? Our nation has stagnated because of the hot button issues of guns, abortion, and gays being clung to by scared little people huddling in their little homes like rodents in their holes. Is that what has really happened to the American Spirit of adventure and daring and our thirst for something better. It looks like it, doesn't it?
