No, they just care about themselves

You are right and wrong with this question.  \n\nI believe that MOST Americans care, they just have place their personal life ahead of the news.  They are bombarded on a daily basis about people getting killed in Iraq and Afganistan, and they have learned to tune it out.  \n\nSad, but true.

No I do not agree.\nWhat we ARE is afraid for this country in regard to the policies and the ideologies we know that the liberal Democrats want to push on this nation.\n\nAre we in denial ...NO\nAfraid for this country under the Democrats...YES.

Democrats from the beginning have had problems with terrorism. For one thing they haven't produce a plan on terrorism. By the way there have been some rank and file Dems which have broken away from their party and have gone Republican. Why? the ranting far left and thier criticism of the President. The keep talking the talk but they haven't produce results. U see Democrats care about is power and high taxes.

The Democrats will be the straw that broke the camels back. They seemly don't care about our country at all. It's all about keeping their jobs. High paying jobs at the expense of the rest of us. They don't care how they keep these jobs. They've brainwashed most of the people who vote for them into believing they really care. It's tragic. The terrorists wont destroy the United States. They don't have to. The people of this country are doing a fine job all on their own. Enjoy what you have. For someday it will be gone.

democrats used to stand for the working class - the tried and true american while the repiublicans for the "rich".  that, however is no longer the case.  the democrats stand for the hand outs - keeping people in the same rut instead of getting them off their butts and helping them up from the poverty or low income levels.  the republican's are now standing for what the dem's used too - conservative values.  i think to my grandfather - staunch union worker and democrat. he would be utterly dusgusted with the fact that the dem's are so liberal in the values and cut and run tactics in the war on terror.

They're 'liberal' Americans. They've got a vested interest to see President Bush fail, and they'll stop at anything to see it happen. Look at Michael Moore, he's an idiot, and he's been caught lying over and over again. Yet the Democratic party latched on to him when he started attacking the president.\n\nNow they're rallying behind Cindy Sheehan. \n\nThese people aren't interested in the country, or the truth. They're just interested in winning, and its pathetic.

Yes, in spite of the democrats.

I really think that the terrorists are hoping for democrats to take over the U.S. House and the U.S. Senate.  The terrorists know that the dems are weak on defending this nation and that they will have a better opportunity of striking us again on U.S. soil.\n\nIt's a sad pathetic day when partisan rhetoric takes precedence over the best interests of our nation.

They will raise our taxes and spend money on new pork-barrel projects, just like Democrats have always done.  They will cut and run from the radical terrorists and expose us all to new terrorist attacks in America.  They will amend the Second Amendment of the Constitution and try to take away our rights to own firearms.  They will permit abortion on demand under all circumstances.  Read their websites and then read between the lines.  What they avoid telling you before election time is just as important as what they advertise.\n\nI see that "dakota29575" has his eye on the stock market, which has already gone down for the last 6 consecutive days, as it appears that the Democrats may gain control of the House or the Senate, and maybe both.  The Democrats won't TRY to take the market down.  It goes down in FEAR of Democrat control, and their "Tax and spend" policy, which creates inflation.

I'm starting to not trust anyone to represent America.  Certainly not the Democrats, though.  Except for a couple conservative Democrats.

If you care about the poor, peace, the deficit and our kids paying for it, trhe immense suffering at home and around the world, the environment, outsourcing of jobs, and worker rights  more than corporations, vote democrat. \n\n If you are fed up with over $3000 of your taxes a year  going to corporate welfare, tired of media conglomerates controlling the news you hear and suppressing dissent and diversity of opinions, if you favor the pollution of big agribusinesses that practice animal cruelty and sell you contaminated foods for a profit, if it bothers you that 45 million Americans have no health insurance, then stop voting republican.\n\nDoes it bother you  that education is cut while the military and past and present wars take up 45% of our entire budgets while the rich get richer and the poor (who send their kids to war) and the middle class are diminished and programs are cut to vets, housing, food, and child support enforcement, and education to the tune of 50 billion in December(reverse Robin Hood bill) and three weeks later the republicans congress gives 70 billion to the rich (who sacrifice few of their kids to war) and who grow richer and sacrifice nothing in wartime, then vote republican as these are their values.\n\n If you are voting values consider that the values are with the dems and that control of all three branches of government are controlled by reps who have done nothing about abortion but talk about it while dems social programs prevent 20% of abortions (which are done for economic reasons like no jobs, no medical, working 2 or 3 jobs etc)..so republican talking saves no unborn lives and dems save 20% or 880 babies lives a day..\n\nNote that men tend to mess up the world and be less compassionate than women in general, so why listen to a man who often don't have the human prespect=tive of women who are life givers.  Men so they often tend to vote rep...while women having the better hearts and sense often vote democratic..\n\nAlso the neocons in power don't want moderate republicans and middle of the roaders like you (except at election time, and are actively targeting republicans for not being copnservative enough (that is ultra conservative..middle of the roaders do better under the big tent of the dems...that's why so many independents and middle of the roaders eventually vote dem.\n\nThere are many more reasons but my deep thoughts about the topic has led me to the conclusion that as a Christian I do not feel morally I can support a party doing what the reps do and that my time is best spent in trying to improve the democratic party and if it is beyond help eventually working to make it possible to elect a third party but the reps do little I can support as a women, a teacher, a parent and a   born again Christian. I urge you to vote democrat. No party will agree 100% with your views but Iif what I have said makes sense, then vote democratic today.

not necessarily,, but your mostly right,,, Democrats have taken power at a different time in American history; however, we made history,,, and with the technology we have now,, the Congress will be closely scrutinized,, their every move will be recorded,,, the crooks will quickly be thrown out,,, I hope Democrats will retain power forever,, or at least my lifetime,, because I truly believe they are on the most part,, the better direction for America

Many Democrats want us to lose.\nBUT, we haven't lost yet.

No.  It's a typical nutjob Democrat belief.  They keep calling Republican idiots, and these idiot Republicans seem to keep kicking Democrat rear ends in elections, year after year.  The Republicans have won every single national election since 1996.\n\nSome droolers will blame the idiot voter for that.  But they have to say that.  They're inventing a solution to a problem they can't figure out.  That, or Republicans steal elections.\n\nHow about this for an idea:  Americans reject Democrat ideals.  Flatly reject them.  It's the truth, so deal with it.  Don't blame voter I.Q., don't blame Republican trickery, BLAME YOURSELVES.  Democrats are out of touch with the rest of the country.\n\nWe don't like our President being called "Nazi".  We don't appreciate having our soldiers, our sons and daughters, called "the real terrorists".  We won't stand for having the 9/11 victims called "little Eichmanns".  We reject hearing liberals call Islamo-Facists blowing up our children in Iraq "freedom fighters".\n\nAs long as mainstream Democrats talk and act like they hate the U.S., they'll continue to lose national elections.

Obviously very far. They acted like defiant children at the State of the Union, which I found extremly distasteful especially because of the times. We need to be united right now not fighting over stupid crap. Personally I'm a moderate but after seeing them at the State of the Union I lost a lot of respect for the Democrats. So right now I'd say they would do anything short of murder to win power back.
