or they are looking to be led by the nose, which means they like Republicans who will lead them by the nose.

We do not elect leaders, we elect representatives. If people are unwilling to lead by voting, then they should seek out a country where two bit tyrants tell them what to do.

And it would be damned tedious dealing with 7 billion people as wonderful as I am. There is just not enough wonderful me to fill that many bodies.

She's raised more money for the Dems that Dean did. That's why the rw hates her. FSogol Jan 2015 #11
IT didnt' matter though, did it. Ferd Berfel Jan 2015 #13
Money? Is that all she cares about? How come with all that money, we LOST the mid terms, again? sabrina 1 Jan 2015 #19
She doesn't pick the candidates, she just raises money. You want more progessive candidates? FSogol Jan 2015 #21
We are, don't worry, voters did a good job of doing that across the country during the mid terms. sabrina 1 Jan 2015 #24

Keep on blaming the voters, who DID vote, but for what they are interested in, and they will keep sabrina 1 Jan 2015 #22
I did not blame voters who voted. Older voters who voted Republican were responsible, though their Agnosticsherbet Jan 2015 #23
You are unaware apparently of what is happening across this country. sabrina 1 Jan 2015 #25
If they don't want Republican policies vote and elect better representatives. Agnosticsherbet Jan 2015 #32
Compromise means BOTH SIDES give something up. What we see is Dems continuously compromising sabrina 1 Jan 2015 #33
So you agree that the sysem isn't working because Republians are in power and won't compromise. Agnosticsherbet Jan 2015 #34
