The Republican Party, as a political organization, is smashed to smithereens, exemplified by their attraction to Sarah Palin. The Democrats have been swept into power on a generic message of change. They must produce with slim margins and against huge odds or the public will quickly turn against them, as well.
It is the survival of Capitalism that they fight for, yet Capitalism has been the root cause of the problem. Can the cause be the cure? That's a hard sell, to say the least. It's Capitalism that denies healthcare to millions; it's Capitalism that poisons the environment. It's Capitalism that is taking homes. It's Capitalism that says anyone who will do it for less money can have your job. It's also Capitalism that says, to bad so sad for you now; get lost before I call a cop.
Who would have guessed it, the modern world and all we know is brought to ruin not by a Hitler or a Stalin or Hadrian or Hannibal, but by a boob, the boob Bush, destroyer of worlds.
