CHANGE: Hope that it's coming

I think we still need some hope and change here in America. Obama's hope and change didn't work and here is why.

Couple of trillion dollars worth of big-government spending stimulus, cash for clunkers, cash for caulkers, homebuyer tax credits, never-ending mortgage-default assistance, two years of unemployment benefits, government-union bailouts for the states, GM, Fannie and Freddie and last but not least the crown jewel Obamacare. All this spending and unemployment is still at record levels. The change we need will come in November. The hope we might have to wait on.
