Are the Democrats going to make change for the good or are they just talk.?

It's all banal rhetoric. Democrats will enjoy their first 100-day 'honeymoon' with the American public, then things will settle into just another state of complicity. Nothing will get done. Nothing will change. Republicans and Democrats will fight like little ten-year-old kids until they start doing their real work: raising money for their re-election.                 -RKO-

*sigh* unfortunately it's most likely going to be more of the same old crap.  Just like the republicans were pretty much corrupted by all their power, the same will likely happen to the democrats.\n\nWell, that's assuming they're going to stay in power past the next election.  I guess we can all hope that we'll see some actual positive changes in the upcoming months.... but I'm not holding my breath.

I hope so. . .The unfortunate truth and sad realization is; it proves that our democracy is mostly dependent on money to win elections.\n\nHopefully, this can be addressed and fixed.   The Dem's have spent more than ever, and were very close in spending to what the Reps have. (To win and have payed less is encouraging, and shows a good sign, however, it bothers me to think about where the money came from).\n\nIf the Democrats have resorted to taking funds the same way as the Reps, then we have a change in name only. I hope not, as I am a Democrat, and I personally despise the fact that you need money to win.\n\nThank you all for voting. . .Great Job

That's exactly what will happen. The Dem's. love to keep people dependent.

Unfortunately not.\n\nThe democrats will push their agenda....\n\nBut guess what? Next electionthe american people can push back and vote in the other party. And if they refuse to represent "the people" we can vote them out too.  \n\nIts time for the government to represent the people again.

should they? clearly\n\nwill they? they have been proudly moving farther and farther out, proclaiming that anyone who stands against them is a "terrorist liberal"... I really don't see any move to moderation in the future with this attitude...\n\nI think the democrats did in the last election... not all but many who won... and that's why they won... and I don't really see any third party with the clout to make anything really happen... but who knows... we could all be surprised...

The Democrats will go to an length to try to stop anything the Republicans or the President wants to do.They never have a good reason or a solution just want to sit around and whine like a bunch of school girls.

[x] The fact Democrats obviously have no plan which will reverse peoples opinion of them.\nThere are no more good Democrats.\nThey don't think anymore, all they what is to be elected.\nOnce they are elected they don't know what to do.\nThey have to many people telling them what they want.\nSometimes giving people what they want, isn't what they need.\nJFK was the last of the good Democrats. And they shot him for acting like a Republican.

Good vs. Evil.. it's already taking place.... Republicans vs. dems.. can't you see that it has already started..  I may die in battle, but I will vote Republican until I die unless some drastic change should come to the democratic party.

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'm not sure even the Democrats know what their agenda will be.

If the Democrats were to make concessions on those issues they'd be Republicans.  Nothing else needs to be said.

The democrats can't come up with one good one now can they?

Democrats can do anything, just ask them.\n\nI wouldn't buy stock in their promises though!

Hi, I was just stopping by your question to see if any Democrats had some great ideas! LOL So far, I see no answers....I, too, hear alot of belly aching from the Democrats but I want to hear their solutions in DETAIL! Thanks for asking the question!

I don;t know if they will learn much...They have been this way for awhile. But now there can be a bit of a check and balance with the House...and hopefully in the Senate. Now the Dems. just have to get some stuff done and stick to what the have promised. The Presidential election in 08' has a lot riding on how the Dems do now. I love politics!!!

It's ending right now. If the Democrats don't take a majority in both houses as predicted, they will certainly make gains. The pendulum is starting to swing the other way. Now all the Democrats need to do is nominate a strong presidential candidate who won't let himself (or herself) be defined by the Republicans.
