And what do you think will happen to the lawmakers in Wisconsin, Ohio, etc? You know, the ones who've shown the people just exactly what the alternative is?"we still have a democratic senate and President. The people who voted them in obviously disagree with you.

Not all were up for election in 2010 - wait till 2012, the Democrats have screwed the pooch, and now the people are speaking.
Hell, my father is a helluva racist (but also a union member), and even liked the Tea Party for a while... but his livelihood trumps his prejudice... He didn't vote for Obama last time but Gov. Walker(and my constant fact chucking ofc) changed his mind for this time around. Considering how stubborn and socially backwards my padre is - I expect many more will come around.
See, the Republicans had a chance - and at the time I was willing to watch and see what they wanted to do... But that's just it. They fucked up and showed America that their policies are worse and their politics are dishonest.
