1. those numbers should be a wake up call to dems that they need to...

get out and be DIFFERENT than the REPUKES!

[ChairmanAgnostic]

4. they forgot how. The current crew are still searching for their balls,

then, their spinal dura.
Feingold is looking better and better. Too many others are hiding.

Interesting - same vote count, I think they only change after x number of votes.

3. should i LIE and say "yes"?

[Critters2]

7. I debated that myself

[Sick_of_Rethuggery]

10. At this stage in the game,

if you think you need to lie to vote yes, you probably understand why street thugs in suits are in charge of everything in this country.

Good. Keep it up, we only have a very few steps left to becoming a fascist police state, we will get there pretty soon with help from the vindictively short-sighted...

[peacebird]

34. jeez - it's on online "fun" poll.... chill, friend, chill.

12. As long as they are all sucking the corporate teat....

there is no meaningful difference other than who they pander to at election time.

[Sperk]

13. I dunno...is there a difference between crooks and cowards?

Should ask if they're a differnce between The Bush Administration and HUMANS!

[Sperk]

15. or murderers and cowards

n/t

[Sperk]

16. or torturers and cowards?

n/t

[Sperk]

[Sperk]

19. I guess after a while, they become one in the same

:cry:

[0007]

14. This poll is as phony as flipping a penny and and saying,

"heads I win, tails you lose"

[SeattleGirl]

17. Done. 50/50

I believe there ARE meaningful differences between R's and D's, but when talking about the ones in DC, I had to say no. :banghead:

[LSK]

20. i said yes - we need to slam this with yes

People dont vote Dem if they dont see theres a difference. We know the current Dems suck. But in order to win 2006, WE MUST SHOW THEY ARE DIFFERENT.

[OKDem08]

21. done - 50/50 now

[Vincardog]

22. 50/50 now get it Democrats? Stand the Fusk up and represent. NOW

23. IMO there is a meaningful difference but that difference has not been

demonstrated by those in position to do so. It would not surprise me in the least if a great majority said there was no difference. Do you think the Democratic Leaders realize the people feel this way about them or do they even care? I can't believe they are just totally oblivious. :shrug: right now the poll is at fifty fifty with only 1300 votes cast.

[Laelth]

26. But that's just it.

Democrats are not in a position to make that difference clear. They're powerless. The Repukes control all three branches of government.

-Laelth

[Toots]

27. There was a time about twelve years ago when Democrats had total Control

Republicans still managed to let America know they were different. They introduced the Contract with America and made their presence known. They managed to get on all talk shows all the time. When was the last time Kerry was on This Week or Meet the Press? What "Democrat" asks for the air time, Leiberman or Biden? They could do a lot more and you know damn well they could...

[pacalo]

24. Just consider the fact that Democratic presidencies have been far more

successful. The Repugs know it, are jealous of it, & that's why they have had to resort to stealing elections. Then they pay off the media to maintain the illusion that they are legitimate & that the Democrats are the enemy. Looking at the consistently low approval ratings since the boy king's "election victory", however, the people can see through the hype.

[lillilbigone]

25. The fact that people think there is no difference is a testament to

the power of the corporate media brainwashing machine.

[Joey Liberal]

28. Done! We need to rock this poll! n.t

[madokie]

29. At 50/50

[Ilsa]

30. very interesting poll. I wish it was more scientifically valid. nt

[kerstin]

31. Kick

[kerstin]

32. Just took the lead. Still 50/50. n/t

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

33. Voted no. Differences, yes. "meaningful"? no.

The "good cop" isn't a helluva lot different than the "bad cop". They both work for the same bosses.

[mcar]

35. Done, n/t
