I am totally sick of democrats. All they trie to do is point fingers. Is there any good republicans out there?

There are as many good republicans out there as there are "good democrats". If no democrats are good in your eyes, maybe no republicans are good in a democrat's eyes.\nAnd the democrats aren't always the ones pointing fingers. There could easily be a case for the republicans doing that.\n\nSpeaking of childish, isn't it kind of childish to threaten to move if things don't go just how you wanted them to?

You know what?  I need to VENT:\n\nAll Democrats do not think alike\nAll Republicans do not think alike\nAll whites do not think alike\nAll Blacks do not think alike\nAll gays do not think alike\nAll hypocrites do not think alike\nAll women do not think alike\nAll men do not think alike\n\n\nGet the idea????\n\nI'm a super-liberal Democrat for the most part, but for cripes sake, don't you think there can be gay Republicans who don't tow the majority Rep. line??\n\nAll of these questions in "Politics" lately are not even questions; they are just bait.  Why don't you people ask something you really don't THINK you already know????\n\n\nedit:  Isn't that par for the course in this category:  I got a "thumbs down" for telling the truth!

Somebody good like McCain should run as an Independent!  The partisan politics of the Democrats and Republicans seems to cause a lot of nothing getting done for the sake of toeing the party line.  I feel we need someone who can breach the impasse(s) that these parties seem to have caused over the years by uniting individuals from the "ruling" parties to take an active part in government.  The current system needs some kind of "spanking" and only an independent can do it; I feel McCain is the man.

It's amazing how all the Democrats are so quick to keep any Republican's past in the light and say how horrible they are (ie. how people still get on GW for his college days... hey we all did a lil smack back then), but heaven forbid you bring up a democrats past!!! SATAN SATAN satan an an an an....  And yeah I'd go huntin wih Cheney.  He also has less chance of me beatin him over the head with a cricket bat than Kennedy.

I'm with you. I've been a conservative Republican for about 20 years and I have now officially terminated my support and membership with the RNC. The Republican party has done nothing for me in the past 5 years. And the Democratic Party certainly has done nothing for me EVER!\n\nI'm voting Independent in 2008.\n\nIf you are a conservative I encourage you to look into the Constitution Party. http://www.constitutionparty.com/

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"

Sure the democrats are smarter than the republicans, but I would like to suggest anyone be an independent thinker instead of a party member. Each party has its pros and cons.

This isn't an attempt to bash democrats, or republicans.\n\nI don't know whether I'd want them to be either one. I have been watching the answers on this site, and it seems that both sides claim that all they do is point fingers, "Look at what they are doing!" and never do anything about it. Or they say, "This is what I am going to do!" But don't very often get around to it. \n\nThat being said, I'd want it to be someone not fully involved in politics. Or, if they are, I'd just want someone to who would act immediately.

Really? This is what you ask? You must be trying to find something to pin on a Democrat. Must be tough to be a Neo Con(vict) these days.

Actually you are going to break your arm patting them on the back.  The Republicans lost it, the Democrats did nothing and I don't expect them to do anything to be able to keep it before their two years are up.

The Republicans in this country are way too extreme (part-time Christians, homophobic, xenophobic, war-loving, and way too out of touch with what people need).\n\nThe Democrats are too spineless and without character.  \n\nIt is too hard to say.  Unless one of the other parties comes up with a honest, problem-solving, hard-working (not vacationing whenever something goes wrong like our current knucklehead), financially responsible, down-to-earth candidate who looks toward the future (focuses on global warming, our ties with other nations, fixing the Social Security issues, eliminating our debt to other countries, and including funding to health causes), then I won't be voting (I have voted in every election since I was 18 and am so disgusted with the choices).

True that. We're overdue for an Independent Party, or a Reform Party, or the Constitution Party. The DNC/GOP play us off on each other, or vainly try to, in hopes of duping us into 'voting' for more money for them and their ambitions. No accountability, and they've more or less worked together long enough to basically short out checks and balances. Right now, with the GOP in majority, they basically run things, so any griping should be more directed at the republicans, but save some for the dems too, wouldn't want em to feel left out! LOLOL\n\nI think the merit of the Independent Party concept is the idea of harkening back to the concept of independence, which sort of flies in the face of 'globalization', but we've seen how committed the politicians are to the public in the face of suitcases full of money. Iraq's a good example of that, mega-dollars for special interests in supporting the 'war effort', with zero public accountability. And, that's not all...these guys have a racket, and the only way to bust it up is to have an election, and impeachment hearings. That's where the voters come in, because at the end of the day, the worst corruption has been the collective ignorance and apathy of 'We, The People'. If you don't vote, don't read the issues, there's no way to have ANY clue about what might even be going on, or who's robbing the till the worst this week. Public accountability only comes when enough people decide to stand up together and say 'enough'. I'd say that the introduction of a new party, like the Independents, would do exactly that. FIRST, we fix america. THEN, help others.

I think if done professionally Republicans can raise good points. If you are looking for them on here, on either side, you will be sorely mistaken. People let their emotions control the real need for solution.

you forgot Democrats.\nLiberals is the Republican "slang" for anyone that is not one of them.

Look at the truth demovrats are just stupid and they use racism and putting down there opponent to move forward whereas republicans just try to do good.  The democrats are messing up this country really bad.  we are headed on a downward spiral that ends at france.  (france = Diet Communism)\n\n-zak
