The good thing is voters are smarter than dems want to believe - We know the real reason

Not going to be good for dems.
Americans vote for the candidate that will best represent them and Reps still. - fall short
[ In Reply To ..]
I'm not sure what reason you are alluding to (please share!), but I do know that many people vote based on their lives in relation to the actions and words of politicians and candidates.

We saw how cutting voting hours worked out for the Reps in 2012.

We saw how all the sexist remarks worked for the Reps.

I don't see how Reps are really building bridges to the voters they need. And speaking of bridges, the Reps further engrained in the minds of Americans that they could care less about citizen Joe sitting on a bridge. The Republican politics is all they care about at the expense of citizens. That's big. Forget Christie, this **is** the GOP Brand. And it's going to get bigger. All Republicans will suffer.

If the ACA Website problems is what the reps are banking on, that's legitimate reasoning, but I don't think they should put all their eggs in that basket. ACA has lots of time for improvement and good spin by then. I know the Dems will be working overtime to improve their image re the ACA, but I still don't see the Reps trying to improve their image in the eyes of minorities, women, and just plain working people.

One question: - Are you
[ In Reply To ..]
better off today than you were one year ago? If the answer is yes, you are DEFINITELY in the MINORITY!
I'm fine, actually, and yes, I am better off - because
[ In Reply To ..]
I take responsibility for myself. I don't rely on any government or any person to compensate or make decisions.

Do you mean the govt shutdown - because

[ In Reply To ..]
the Ds and Rs were at an impasse and the Ds refused to budge 1 mm and BO has to implement his pen and phone if he doesn't get his way? The government shutdown that was as a result of the nightmare we are now facing with O'care because the Ds wanted it at all costs even though it's going to bankrupt this country? Ok, gotcha, that government shutdown. America knows the truth.
Yup, that's the one. - sm - link included

Come election time people are going to remember the truth. They are going to remember that republicans tried working with democrats to resolve the issues, but Ds wouldn't budge. They are going to remember Harry talking about how sick children are not important or telling someone "shut up you're going to ruin it for us" and other mean-spirited things. Most people don't know Cruz or other individual politicians are. Here's proof - just watch this video (it's short).

Liberals Lose Their Cool In The Supreme Court Fight Over ObamacareNov 18, 2014
On Nov. 7, the Supreme Court said it would entertain the latest legal assault on President Obama’s health-reform program. Leading liberal analysts worry—reasonably—that the justices will cripple Obamacare. Unfortunately, these defenders of the program are making their case by preemptively accusing right-leaning members of the high court of bad faith and rank partisanship.

Cruz Used Obamacare Supporter's Story To Try To Sep 27, 2013
After extracting information from a WSJ article about student debt, Ted Crud portrayed him on national television as a hopeless, homeless, college kid, strapped with student loan debt who is forced to sleep on his friend's couch. Crud decided to showcase these details of John Connelly's life (someone he never even met or talked to) in his phoney filibuster aimed at discrediting Obamacare. Apparently, Mr Connelly didn't much appreciate being used to illustrate helplessness and hom ...

Asleep DreamsMar 06, 2014
Hi everyone, We were on a discussion below about asleep dreams, and it fizzled out. I myself am very interested in dreams. It's pretty well established (though not proven) that all people dream during sleep, but not all people remember their dreams. I guess there is some debate about if all people dream, because a large number of people don't remember their dreams, even if a "dream state" is proven during a sleep study showing REM (rapid eye movement, the supposed dream state.) T ...

Obamacare Is Failing From Behind... His Goals For ObamacareJul 20, 2016
1) Have it collapse so that single payer can be implemented amidst the ensuing chaos. 2) Have that happen on somebody else’s watch. Obamacare was designed to fail so the Democrats could “reform” it with complete government provided socialized medicine. That is the entire purpose for it. Obamacare is designed to collapse so they can backfill the vacuum with government run socialized medicine. Eventually, everyone will be on some form of Medicare. I believe that was one of Bernie’ ...

If so, this is where most of the fight is all about now, and this is why they want to unfund PP. If PP wouldn't provide abortions, then the ...
