3. Our Democrats in Congress were a disgrace to the American idea of representative government.

They were worse than the Republicans. The Republicans were supporting their ideology. What were the Democrats supporting? They acted as cowards. Aftraid to stand up for the principles of the Democratic Party. We relied on them to at least try to keep the Republicans in check. But they failed. They got on their knees and groveled before the DimSon King. I hope the deaths of tens of thousands of innocent Iraqi children weigh heavy on their consciences.

I could never vote for one of these cowards for president. That means Ms. Clinton.
