I agree. It's also interesting how the "New Democratic" strategy of moving to the middle has fractured the party and left it as basically a body without a head. Really these days the Democrats are more of a coalition than a party, and the coalition is very shakey. Clinton and his "New Democratics" have completely sold out Organized Labor, it seems to me. The "life style" liberals share none of the values with the traditional democrats. The minority vote is becoming ever less monolithic. Really I think a lot of blame goes back to the "New Democrat" group, who pretty much seem to have managed to take over the party without any real public debate and before most of the rank and file even knew they existed. It perhaps was a calculated and self-serving move by a small group of people who advanced their own careers at the party's expense.

The longer our borders are treated as open doors, the more our soveigrnty is at risk. We, Americans, are being bred (sp?) out of existance. The Dem's know this. This country today is brining up a class of serfdom. Some have asked here "what are we gonna do about it?"..yada, yada, yada. Voting out the rats is great; I'm all for it. But alot of the ilk we are putting in is not much better.
There's only one way to take back our country, DEPORT those that do no belong here. Slice the candidates will to succumb to the so called "minority". erradicate the "PC" bullshit. The Republican party, The GOP, is spineless. They merely "react", they no longer act.

Now, with that said, I will venture forth and vote Republican Tuesday. Not 'cause I like it, but only because if anything, it might slow the fall of my nation. I hope to see a time when Republican seats far outweigh that of hte left. My next hope is, we can then elect those that will upseat the Republicans and retake this country. Put people in office that are willing to fight for US. Not some pissant illegal. People who are willing to base policy on logic, not on feelings. People who are ready to be Americns again. What I see in office now, they are a shame to our nation.

Flame away...

Very astute. The Democratic coalition has virtually nothing in common in terms of fundamental values. Example: a gentleman at my church (a fundamentalist Southern Baptist) votes straight Democrat every time. He is quite elderly, an active member, and very much a Christian. He shares a party with homosexual activists, pro-abortionists, man-hating feminists, America-hating multiculturalists, and profit-hating redistributionists. He is an old-time Democrat. Of course he will go to heaven soon and no one will replace him.

What holds the Democratic Party together? At its core, what holds the bizarre collection of culturally conservative unionists, homosexuals, Hollywood hanger-ons, atheists, sex-obsessed feminists, etc., is an absolutely uncontrollable hatred for Republicans. It is really that simple. Many, but not all, also hate America and it's history of a Christian-based culture, and are determined at all costs to deconstruct it to its very foundation and rebuild it in their own image.
