Well, you're correct about how political beliefs function as a cultural signifier, but I find much of the general attitude here to be perplexing. On the one hand, there's the great pessimism about the political system of the US, on the other hand, there's general belief that this could be fixed if only ______ party candidate won. I presume they think the Dear Leader will flip a switch in the Congressional circuit breaker or something.

I find this most amusing in the pissing contest between Obama & minor leftist party supporter, mostly because of how it resembles the split between Stalin & less organized Bolshevik groups. Watching Obama supporters try to justify how he went from opposing indefinite detentions to supporting assassinating citizens is very, very amusing.
