Reply #32: But that's a novel idea! Ask Democrats to govern [View All]

[sabrina 1]

like Democrats rather than Republicans? Never! It's OUR team, right or wrong!

One thing I know from the people I talk to, many of them Independents, the old 'lesser of two evils' isn't working anymore.

If Democrats want people's votes, they know how to get them. And if they persist in this 'bi-partisanship nonsense, they will be held responsible if Republicans gain back a majority.

Shifting blame to voters simply won't fly. Not this time. Try something new, we already tried the 'lesser of two evils'.

Democrats LOST Ted Kennedy's seat. That was a massive failure directly due to the expectation that people will continue to vote for the lesser evil. Someone needs to sit them down and have a good talk with them, unless they WANT to lose.

Just remember, a vast majority of Americans won't hear your specious 'blame the voters' argument, they are not on the internet. Democrats have a few months to demonstrate to voters that they are worth their votes.

It's up the Democratic Party. Unless they plan to 'mandate votes' which I get the feeling would be a popular idea with some people, no party has a right to expect to get people to vote for them without earning those votes.

I have a suggestion. How about some of that bi-partisanship with liberals for a change?
