If you said to people you can cast a secret ballot on whether to turn back the clock and have Morsi in power again, I don't think very many people in Washington would turn back that clock.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Even if we did achieve what we wanted with a very small state, we'd just be resetting the clock back to 1776, and it would roll forward exactly the same way again.
You don't change minds in Washington with sweet reason. You do it to the white light of public opinion.
If people want to take the time to vote, they should be able to, and their vote should be counted.
Voters seem to understand what a big waste of time trying to change Washington is.
We cannot turn the clock back nor can we undo the harm caused, but we have the power to determine the future and to ensure that what happened never happens again.
I don't think I'm really open to having Washington change me.
That would be the biggest shake-up Washington ever had, if big money didn't dictate who the candidates were and who got elected.
Ultimately, you change the culture in Washington only one way, and it's one election at a time, with the character of the people you send.
In any case, you can't turn back the clock.
People are fed up with the career politicians who created this mess or failed to prevent it and neither was acceptable, and the only way we could change that was by sending a different type of person to Washington.
