First off, not all Americans !(I'm more of an Analog type of guy)
But the majority that does stay with the Red-Blue mind set, I think that they
have been "broken", or "brainwashed" in to believing that there is only two choices
possible for America.
I see it as too many Americans have become too complacent in life because we
have so may luxuries. As a result most Americans don't have the desire to make
things political better, they'd rather have politics spoon fed to them. And hear we are!
Some one as stupid, deceitful and dangerous as Bush was the better fool for the job !
A lack of choices has brought us to the next choice, where some one that is a flat out
proven liar(Hilary) has a chance of becoming our next leader. The main reason for that is
that we only have two choices, and McCain is just Bush Lite!
It's quite Ironic that Americans have been taught that Capitalism is great because,
COMPETITION leads to better products, yet so many American can't put 1 & 1 together
to realizes that the same applies to politics/politicians.
