Th right course of action, IMHO, is to wait till Obama gets a second term, then start working on a real progressive candidate, or an independen t one, if you're so inclined. You start this effort now, and the likelihood of an R president in 2012 increases exponentia lly.
Chris Hedges writes-
Barack Obama’s politically expedient decision to betray and abandon his pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, exposed his cowardice and moral bankruptcy . In that moment, playing the part of Judas, he surrendere d the last shreds of his integrity. He became nothing more than a pawn of power, or as Cornel West says, “a black mascot for Wall Street.” Obama, once the glitter of power fades, will have to grapple with the fact that he was a traitor not only to his pastor, the man who married him and Michelle, who baptized his children and who kept him spirituall y and morally grounded, but to himself. Wright retains what is most precious in life and what Obama has squandered —his soul.
You know I respect your opinions and philosophies by now, I hope. My only concern THIS election is that by not supporting the lesser of two weevils (JOKE), you are only considerin g the FISCAL situation. If any of the Republican s is elected... .FOUR of the Supreme Court are over 72 years old. The Republican appointmen ts may take us over the edge as far as loss of rights, to where we may never recover.
I too believe that our elections have become a set-up, a rigged game with what you call the Corporate Masters of the Universe pulling the strings but if this is what our "democracy" has devolved to then there's absolutely NOTHING we can do about it short of revolution .
You couldn't be more wrong. You can't sell me on Obama (nor anyone I know), and it's those of you who continue to support him that are keeping us all saddled with him. The only lemonade to be made from the 2012 election should Obama remain in the race is to work to get an independen

Times have changed since Reagan and the way that we measure wins have been gamed. Obama won 28 states, plus DC and Nebraska's 2nd district (yes, political parties are now gaming states, ending electoral votes). Popularly, Obama won 10 million more votes than McCain. That's called a mandate.

If Obama can't achieve Democratic voters' objectives with this current Congress (and that isn't and hasn't been his goal), he's not going to fare any better after 2012. He was given everything that he needed in 2008 and he decided to play Democratic voters for idiots with the push for "bipartisa
