Democrats are being stifled by the Bush administration. There's very little we can get done right now. \n\nHowever, to answer your question with another:\n\nBesides bashing Democrats and making the rich richer and the poor poorer, what else have Republicans perfected?

Exactly, dems have blown it already with their relentless negativity and lack of realistic solutions to our problems. What they really need to do is excise their extremist faction so they can attract more swing voters. Unfortunately, the economy is damn good (hell, my unemployed roommate so a new F150 on credit). So they don't have that to fall back in.\n\nI want Dems like Roosevelt and Jack Kennedy. Not anti-American whiners who think nothing is winnable and run around like Chicken Little all day long.

Not all democrats are on the left fringe or liberal.  Point is very few democrats are for those things.  It is his trade policy and views on foriegn affairs and economics that make dem or rep, social issues are for liberals and conservatives.\n\nHe very well could be a Democrat.

They need to let the Republicans trip over a rock and hang themselves (just like they're doing right now) which means, they don't have to do anything on that front.\n\nOn a more positive front, they need strong ideas that hit the target of American mind and I mean punch the hell out of these ideas into the public consciousness.  No "this democrat thinks this, but THAT democrat thinks that"  Democrats need to stand together as a unified front using ideas that appeal to the public at large.  In other words, a populist stance that takes care of the common man, and not corporate cronyism ala Repukes.

i think we need some one in the middle, We need the agressiveness that we have shown BUT we also need to meet the concerns of other nations aswell. We are not the only ones that are affected. \n\nI think that the democrats will help our war situation on the american level but leave iraq in the toilet. The will fix our foreign relations with europe but we will suffer from china as the Democrats are more prohuman rights and china treats their workers like crap. So less trade out of china means an increase in prices, the price of oil will increase and many of our issues on alternative fuels wont be solved because of all the special intrest groups.\n\nSo I guess we can only wait and see what will happen but those are my predictions.

Democrat.  No.  Socialism does not work.  Neither does conservatism, which is one of the greatest scourges of human history.  Extremism is always bad for America.  That is why Democrats have been willing to fight fascists and communists alike, when Republicans would - and did - cut and run, and why Democrats have always supported the operations in Afghanistan.  "Of the people, by the people, for the people" is not a socialist tenet; how far Republicans have fallen from the height Abraham Lincoln set them upon!  Democrats won't turn America socialist; the idea that they would is just one of the many lies told by conservatives for the past hundred years or so.  For all their supposed morality, conservatives have proven to be the most corrupt and immoral of all; before Mark Foley there was Sulla of Rome.

If Democrats are demonic so are Republicans.  They want to solve the same problems, they just have a different method of solving such problems.

You know the democrats are constantly shooting themselves in the foot.  \n\nThey constantly criticize the president on his policies, both domestic and foreign, they always are against whatever policy the republican party put up as policy or law or want to enact in the congress.\n\nWhat really get me about the democrats they do all this,hold up all the republican and presidential proposals, yet they never never come up with a solution to any problem or offer any good worthwhile suggestions,just constant criticism.\n\nWhen they come up with a few new ideas, solve some of the problems in their party perhaps they can win the white house again.  \n\nAs far as Howard we are going to go and take the campaign to all those states he was yelling about, we don't need a president like that.  \n\nI hope this has been of some use to you, good luck.\n\n"FIGHT ON"

Look at Florida. And it still isn't fixed!\n\nAbsentee ballots, exclusionary practices, voting machine tampering, blocking calls for rides, as the repubs plead guilty to in US Federal; District court and many other ways!!\n\nI am sure they are still thinking up ways to defeat the system!

No Democrat-on the whole.\n\nTheir bill was foolish and a slap in our face.

You are correct but what are we going to do? We have a wonderful 2 party system--bad and worse. It has been that way forever and it isn't going to change.

Keeping liberals out of power.  They will cut and run in the war on terror and destroy this economy with tax increases.  \n\nI am a lifetime Republican voter and am fed up with the party.  Democrats scare me a lot.

Most importantly,\nThere is an election on Nov. 7......Vote Democrat, and help our country towards a balance of power, and hopefully less bickering and more problem solving.

First, the reason you haven't heard one way or the other about a set democratic  plan is because it has been the strategy of the democrats to sit back and let Bush hang his party... so far this has worked. After all, they are not in control of any of the 3 branches of gov. so really, what can they do right now?\n\nAs far as a plan after they regain some authority, this is what I have heard:\n- For some reason, Bush didn't want nor ask for much international support in Iraq. I have a theory as to why he wanted to unilaterally control it but that is not an issue atm. Point is that democrats plan to begin to rebuild international support and try to bring in other nations for assistance in Iraq to get the burdern off of us solely and to get it resolved.\n- Howard Dean on PBS said today that the democratic party plans to target outsourcing in order to at least freeze the flux of jobs going overseas at an enormous rate. \n- He also mentioned healthcare stating that under Bush the number of insured has increased from 45 million to 48 million then stated they plan to work on that as a priority.\n- He also mentioned they plan to repeal the tax cuts for the rich that Bush awarded BUT, and this got my attention because I had not heard this, they intend on a NEW TAX CUT for the middle class.\n\nThose are a few things I recall off the top of my head. Hope that helps.
