I'm fed up with the hypocrisy and lying about the war.  Is it too lat to switch and become a democrat?

You can vote however you want tomorrow, unless you voted early already.  Vote your conscience first, then spit.

No be glad to get it over and done with.  AND! AND! GET THOSE CAMPAIGN ADS OFF THE T.V.\n\nThis has been the dirtiest, nastiest, meanest election ever. I am sick if it especially the Republican ads! They have sunk to a all time new low. It is enough to make me change my vote from Republican to Democrat

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.

I'm tired of the good life myself.  Thank goodness America will now be in the hands of terrorists.\n\nThank a Democrat

I'm a Republican, but I still don't think that the Dems are capable of making matters any worse over there than they already are.\n\nBesides, if the American people make it known to the Dems through polls, protests, lobbying, etc. that they don't want to cut and run from Iraq, even the stubborn Dems may end up changing their minds on the issue.

I work for state government and I can honestly say that I am more of a Democrat than I ever was.  \n\nI am more circumspect about talking about my beliefs than I was before I started working here, but that is probably because I have more respect for other's views than I did before.  I hope that is why.\n\nI am not as ready to jump the "scandal" gun as I used to be because I see the mistakes that happen on a daily basis and I know the feds screw up as much as anyone else.  \n\nThe caveat to this is that when a major screw up happens and then there is no action taken, I am much less forgiving than I used to be.  I do this because I've seen how quickly government responds when they want to.

It has shown the far left nuts to be the American-hating losers they have always been.\n\nNotice I did not include all or even a majority of Democrats in this category. First, many Democrats actually support the war - I work with many and serve alongside many in my National Guard unit. Second, there are many Democrats who oppose the war based on well thought-out reasoning and principle. I happen to disagree with them, but they oppose it based on something they perceive as true rather than just hating it because it is chic to bash the President.

I wanted him once many years ago, but now that I know so much more about him, I don't want him at all. I was a Democrat for years, turned Independent, now thinking seriously of becoming a full blown Republican. That's the only party with the old patriotic ways that made America.

What grates me is how each party shoot emotionally enflamed accusations at the other, and fail to consider how the other party views the situation. None appear to speak point by point to the accusations of the other. When it does happen, the other side refuses to acknowledge the response, and continues to rant and rave as though no answer were ever offered.  I long to belong to a Party that speaks the truth, rationally, and provides point by point answers to hard questions asked by the other side.\n\nYou-know, 'escape' (below) made me think:\nJust a few of the issues where the Democrats moved us backwards:\nIndividual rights and liberty (the liberty of thousands permanently evaporated on 9/11 on certain planes and  buildings)\n\nVietnam, (Kerry voted against fighting Iraq after the invasion of Kuwait. Yes, after the invasion and rape of a peaceful nation and threatening to invade Saudi Arabia. After the conquering of another sovereign nation was universally condemned in the UN which then approved military action.)\n\nthe Environment (blindly supporting labor unions have caused the relocation most polluting activities to the countries where we now buy most merchandise from) [I do not declare the unions unilaterally evil as they have brought some valuable worker protections earlier on, however I feel that there has been as much, if not more, harm as good.]\n\nFederal deficit (a really big glass house issue)\n\nEnergy Policy (by ignoring the middle east, keep oil cheap by get along go along policies, and failing to press energy optimization conservation)\n\nTolerance/national unity (Generally cannot tolerate Christians, or the 10 commandments [the basis of our freedom and law!])\n\nEmergency/Disaster Preparedness (another glass house)\n\nEthics in Politics (now this takes the cake)\n\nInternational Prestige (This is not like the Miss Universe pageant- the Bible speaks to a one world government being a sign of the end times)\n\nSocial services (don't they find it easier to give a fish than to teach the man to fish, and expect him to do so)

I was not going to vote at all cause I think both parties are useless when it comes to caring about the me factor. But since this mudslinging campaigning started to go on and the left media kept throwing padded polls to show the democrats ahead I said screw it and will vote republican, I started doing more and more research and democrats are a scary bunch. I did so much digging and cant find any of their solutions to the "issues" but I sure see a lot of bashing....it shows me a child like thought process, the republicans are more of the responsible party to the point at least they dont change their path because the media says its unpopular. The republican base that was ignored in the polls will come out and vote and yes the Kerry thing was the icing on the cake. A Senator that opens up an does a freudian slip and let his true feelings about the military pop out, even people that served with him in vietnam side against him, showing his true character or lack of.....

I was sick of it long before the elections were over-- and yet, like watching a car accident, somehow I just can't turn away.\n\nThe name calling. The illogical arguments. The knee-jerk party affiliations. The Democrats that loathe Republicans. The Republicans that hate Democrats. Witty little nicknames like "Democraps" and "Repukelicans"...  how can I turn away from the juvenile madness?

Well, not really. What was proved yesterday is that Americans are fed up. I do not support the democrats or republicans. I support the Socialist Equality Party (SEP). What yesterday's election proves is that even as the democrats move to the right and the populace to the left, they are still seen as the only option by most. The democrats are not anti-war, they are not pro working-class. They are as bad as the republicans, but they are still seen as the only alternative because of our two party system. Check out the SEP's website if you are against the war and inequality in general:\n\nhttp://www.wsws.org\n\nThanks a lot for reading.

I dunno, I'm not a democrat. But I do know that no plan could be worse than "stay there, keep creating new terrorists by killing and maiming innocents while watching US soldiers die for nothing".

Let's do. Funny,it seems the other way 'round to me.Our motives regarding war,abortion, prayer, smaller government,etc. -are villified,seems to me: in the media, particularly, but also 1 on 1 talks. But I'm a conservative,and a reg. Joe. The Rep. party is not,nor the Dems, either,of by and for the people any longer.It's the same machine, different masks.Live long,Peace.\n P.S.And never let them make you be politically correct, or one day demagog will mean democrat.
