Dems to voters: You may hate us, but GOP is worse

WASHINGTON – With just six weeks to avoid a possible election catastrophe, Democrats are trying to limit the damage with a closing argument that's more plea than platform: We know you voters are furious with us, but just let us explain why the Republicans would be worse.

The strategy requires an autumn influx of voters willing to view the election as a choice between two imperfect parties — and imperfect candidates on each ballot line — rather than as a chance to slap the Washington establishment that the public seems to dislike so deeply.

But the Democrats admit the Republicans have a big emotional advantage with voters who are fed up with high unemployment, soaring deficits and what many see as an arrogant Congress and administration that rammed a revolutionary health care plan down their throats.

Hey dems...we passed “hate” for you a long time ago, we’re closing in on “despise” now, just a little ways past “loathe”.

What's to see?

They DID ram this down our throats. WE didn't want it.

The truth is that even their own party membership didn't want it. The leadership had to the out-right bribe, offer pork, give special deals, and scramble to include last minute changes and by this time didn't even know what really was in it!

People are as pissed about that as they're angry about it being passed. Special deals piss people off! Also, how about the fact that the bill passed DOESN'T APPLY TO CONGRESS OR THEIR STAFF!!!!

Arrogance in passing legislation just to give their guy a win.

Let us get to the real record of the Demonrat party. When they control everything it is a disaster. Let us not forget that Clinton was self-destructing and was only helped by the GOP takeover in ‘94 while Demonrats took over Congress and a great many states in 2006 and things started going to hell leading up to the national level with 0bama and this corrupt, incompetent Congress. Take a look at the disastrous results when Demonrats have control of states, cities and now the national level and tell me where Republican control comes close to the hell holes that are Demonrat strongholds. I think that should be made an issue held against the Demonrats. It’s a real eye opener to their evil policies and criminal organization.

Yes and now they need to explain how people lost their jobs and homes during their reign.

I can hardly wait until November. Nancy and Harry’s big adventure is coming to an end.
