For those of us at the liberal end of the spectrum, the current Florida offshore drilling issue typifies the same catch-22 we face on every issue. The public generally supports us, but not enough to counteract the beating we take from the right on the subject.
If questioned most people probably don't think we should re-open offshore drilling until something is resolved about safety concerns, but quite simply that was yesterdays news. Meanwhile we're being beaten to death by the right on the same subject. One wonders if we're picking the wrong fights?
