This site needs an infusion of life

I have been so involved in my ALS situation that this site has been all but abandoned. It's hard to care or comment on other life's stories when an obsession for survival is thrown into the mix. Let me be clear, though, that I am not a one trick pony. I still consume much of what the outside world has to offer. I follow the yo yo market, I read about the latest Texas governor to move toward nomination if not the center. I follow the GOP as it kowtows to the Tea Party fringe. I am aware of our current administration's failure to capture little from the American people other than disappointment and dismay. It does not escape me that neither Democrat nor Republican has anywhere near a handle on what it takes to turn this country around. Obama, a smart guy, thought he knew what would work, and he found out it takes more manipulation, cajoling, compromise and resignation than brains and a plan to get anywhere in DC.
Have you ever wondered why only a certain type runs for office? My bet it is because the smart guys know it's the worst job in the world.
