Behold Billmon's Dao of American Politics. Take the time to read it all. It's a bit good.
It does tend rather to crush one's tiny delicate blossom of hope. Dialectical struggles of the sort Billmon describes, and the sort that'll be required to shove the current crop of conservatives out of power, can run to decades. Dubya and his heirs might well retain the throne until I'm old enough to run for president myself. Or longer.
(Vote Hog in 2016! A pig in every pot, and pot in every pig!)
It goes well with Ken MacLeod's first novel, The Star Fraction, with its healthy doses of Trotskyism and revolution...
