Liberal Coma
Liberal Coma is the state of political unconsciousness. Time frames for this condition varies but usually only last until the individual grows up and has to actually face reality. When people have suffered or are in a Liberal Coma they are very idealistic or unrealistic about the world they live in. Often when these people either have to support themselves or have children they begin to wake up from this coma. Some never wake up.
Veronica woke up from her Liberal Coma when she saw her unemployed, single-mom neighbor pull into her driveway with her new car, one of her babies daddies and the groceries she just purchased with food stamps.
