Is it true that dead people and pets only vote Democrat? or do they vote Republican too?

as far as has ever been reported dead people and pets do only vote democratic!  You would think that they would have more "wisdom with years" but it's never been reported to say differently.

Some of the things Republicans seem to support by their policies are things God considers to be sinful in motivation.\n\nThe same thing goes for some Democratic platforms.\n\nI'm sad sometimes when I watch either party claim the spiritual high ground and vilify the other side, when in all honesty neither one is acting purely for the sake of others, or the hurt, or sick, or vulnerable, or poor. \n\nPolitics is usually about power. Sometimes we think we're getting this power to do good, but our idea of good is sometimes faulty or lacking.\n\nIn heaven, we won't need labels like Republican or Democrat, because we'll all be with God, all the illusions will be stripped away, and we'll be able to love each other completely rather than trying to play off the other side to gain power to fulfill our desires.

I don't think statistics can provide a truly accurate answer for actual number of eligible voters.  During the presidential election, the democrats had thousands registered to vote that were actually resting in peace in our cemeteries across the U.S.  Although most of these votes are weeded out..........it makes you wonder how many get counted.

oh my.  Why is it that we can usually show evidence of democrats cheating in elections (like the dead people voting) but the democrats are the ones who cry foul?

Neddie...(I really hate to have to keep correcting you, but this one's almost funny!)\n\nFirst, a definition:\n\nBlue Dog Democrat: "One of 33 conservative Democratic Members of the House of Representatives who have banded together to support a more centrist position on economic issues than that held by their party's leadership". \n\nSource: C-Span Congressional Glossary (see link below)\n\nThe "Blue Dog Democrats" were formed in Louisiana in 1994, the year of Newt Gingrich's congressional coalition and "Contract with America".  Their purpose was to move the Democratic Party in a more conservative direction.  \n\nEver heard of Zell Miller?\n\nIf they are going to do anything in the coming days, they will be moving closer to Republicans and further away from the likes of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid.  \n\nIf you don't believe me, just read the platforms of James Webb, Harold Ford and Bob Casey, or better yet, the following synopsis of an October 30th article published by that bastion of right wing propaganda, The New York Times (see link below):\n\n"Democrats eager to win back control of House turn to conservative and moderate candidates who fit profiles of their districts more closely than profile of national party; if such candidates win, they may be expected to side with Republicans and Bush White House, leading to tensions between party's new centrists and its more liberal political base; Democratic officials say they searched for candidates with greatest possibility of winning against Republicans, and wound up with number who reflect more moderate views; say this held true in suburban areas and some rural districts in particular; if crop of moderate and conservative Democrats arrive on Capitol Hill as members of Democratic majority, they would not have clout to change face of Congress; but party veterans would regain chairmanships and House leadership posts..."\n\nTo use your words, if these guys are going to “guide America down the right path…”, it will truly be down the RIGHT path!  \n\nHilarious!

I've always voted Democratic. They're the closest to my beliefs and I always vote for the party over the person. Hey, its my vote that's how I choose to use it.

Yes I do.\n\nDo you think the Democrats are going to give me someone I can vote for. I've not voted for a Republican the last two times. I've voted against the clucks the Democrats have nominated.\n\nDemocrats get back to your base. We're still out here. We didn't leave you. YOU left us. And just so you know --"I'm not a Republican" isn't a very good campaign slogan.

My guess is that you will have a lot of democrat responses saying something along the lines of "republicans are idiots" or whatever emotional illogical name-calling response they can muster up.\n\nI will try to answer as easily as I can.\n\nDemocrats (aka Left Wing - as they tend to sit on the left side of the senate/house floor) are usually known as "Liberals."  While I very much dislike Liberals, they generally represent personal liberties and civil rights (i.e. gay rights, pro-choice).  This is usually a good thing unless it is taken to the extreme which both sides usually do.  Although they cannot put a name to it, they also usually have what I call a "Robin Hood" theory: steal (higher tax) from the rich to give to the poor (welfare).  Depending on your stance on capitalism and companies, you may agree or disagree with this.\n\nRepublicans (aka Right Wing - as they tend to sit on the right side of the floor) are usually known as "Conservatives."  They are usually stereotyped as the uptight religious group.  Most support capitalism and the growth of businesses.  Again, this is generally good unless taken to an extreme.  They are generally more traditional and stand against radical social change as they can see the effects that it can potentially have on our society as a whole (i.e. pro-life, heterosexual marriage).\n\nReally when it comes down to it, both sides like to play issues such as abortion and gay marriage against each other because that's what the sheep voters usually only care to see on the surface.  Both sides are equally as corrupt and plagued by scandal after scandal although they will both blame each other for being worse.  And none of them really truly represent you.

I almost always vote for one party over the other but just so I wont be a zombie I refuse to vote straight ticket.  \n\nI used to know a very old man who was illiterate and he would go into the voting booth and look for the donkey at the top of the ticket and punch straight party.  He would say, "The donkey means Democrat.  And Roosevelt was a Democrat...and that makes me a Democrat"  \n\nRepublican or Democrat don't give up your individuality for the party.

Republicans. The other lot represent failed capitalists who are trying to achieve power through the only other route available to them. They convince the people that they are victims of capitalism, turn them into victim groups, then convince them that they can save them from the nasty Republicans. The dumbos believe this and then they vote Democrat. Sad, but true.

Pets, yes.  My cats are very distressed by the current administration.  The dead, no.  You've seen what happens when zombies get all uppity.

I would rather vote for a dog than ever vote for bush if he was the only one running and someone had a gun to my head and told me to "VOTE OR DIE"  i would rather die.  I hope every lame ass that voted for him regrets it now and i hope they all drive suvs and are having to work 7 jobs just to pay for gas!!!!

Democrat.  I believe in their values more than the republicans.  Also, republicans just whine about everything.  Also, Bush is the dumbest person on the face of the universe.  You could fit his library in a little corner.

And they would say the same about people who vote for democrats. A frivolous question.

Yes, I was a republican in the 80s then after the Iran-Contra scandal, I switched to independent.... voted for Perot twice. Then in 2002, I re-registered democratic.\n\nI changed to completely democratic after Bush discontinued the PAY AS YOU GO system that the democrats had used to balance, and keep balanced, the budget. \n\nNOW, I am currently what you would call a 'yellow dog' democrat. This means I will vote for any democrat even if it was a yellow dog. My reasons are that I have come to believe the republican party will lie, cheat, or steal in any way, shape, or form to be in power. \n\nI completely do not trust the republican party to do what is right for the American ppl.. ie, loss of jobs, this war, our economy, minimum wages, crap added to legislation giving money away (forgot the term for that), K STREET, pro-executive party supreme court judges, .... the list goes on and on and on.

No.  If I vote for a Democrat in a Red state, my vote does not count.  The opposite is true for a Republican voting in a Blue state.  You vote simply does not count.  We have seen it happen where the candidate with the most votes does not win.  Does that make any sense?
