    All i have to say about that.
    Communism is impossible to achieve (Not technically, but realistically), but socialism in America is not anywhere near impossible. We're already moving toward a more government-oriented economic and political system.

    We're supposed to be capitalist, and democratic, but we're starting to sacrifice some of that. The government is expanding.

    Politically, it may be possible. Economically, it's not, since you'd have to shift the economic power from corporate hands and sever the ties of globalization one by one.

    I agree with you on that, but it is possible to socialize the economy in some form. Not entirely, not to the degree that the Russians or Chinese have it, but our economy is becoming more socialistic all the time.

    This was a reality before Obama. However, he, along with the overwhelmingly democratic congress, does not help to change that.

    The government didn't just start expanding under Obama's administration.

    If Obama had focused more on jobs and less on this futile push for healthcare, and Coakley had run a better campaign, the independents would have been assuaged.

    See my last post. I wasn't saying anything about Obama magically turning this country into the USSA.

    It was a reality before Obama, but it doesn't make it any less true, that the government has been expanding, and Obama, and a very extreme-democrat congress, doesn't help to change that.

    I'm so glad I grew up in Massachusetts.

    Moreover, I grew up in Newton, Ma., where education was a priority.

    I love it ( not ), let's high jack a thread that most posters have zero related interest to. This was supposed to be a thread about an election in Massachusetts and Massachusetts poilitics.

    She called Schilling a Yankees fan?! There's no way he could be! I mean, look at him...fat, obnoxious, doesn't know when to shut up, thinks whatever he says is the most important thing in the...well, okay, I guess that could mean he is, but still, he isn't.

    - From the 2004 ALCS Game 4 Gamethread. A reminder that no game is over until the final out is recorded, and things will always get better. Misspellings unchanged as a reminder that Yankees fans are just terrible.

    This type of defection by Democrats does not bode well for Coakley.
