“Super Tuesday” for the Democrats was Shakespearean “sound and fury, signifying nothing,” not only for the Democratic race but for true differentiation on issues, and true progressivism on issues.
On healthcare, Obama will continue to ignore mandates while both will continue to ignore the need for vouchers as a cornerstone of their national healthcare plans.
On the environment, neither will get honest about the true cost and elbow grease needed to fight global warming.
On energy, both will continue to act as if they’ve never even heard of the phrase “Peak Oil.”
On foreign policy, both will continue to hold to some version of “imperialism lite,” American exceptionalism and blank checks to Israel. Neither will be honest with the American public about just how little we can do if Pakistan implodes, let alone the question of whether we should be trying to do anything in the first place.
