Just a small rant and I'll leave the floor for the more eloquent sisters and brothers ,thank you all for your efforts.
The biggest mistake the Republican party makes is considering every Democrat is a dirty Liberal. If they would stop foaming at the mouth long enough to look a Man in the eye and just plain talk to him they'd perhaps find the majority to be plain ole Blue collar men and women who are voting with the ticket that has their best interests at heart. We care when you bust our Unions,We care when you cut our pay,take away benefits and legally weasel Us out of our pensions,while cutting taxes and giving subsidies to corporations and the rich. We get downright HOT when you threaten our parents and our own SS and Medicare that we have honestly paid for working all our lives. We are tired of your Wars like Iraq and grieved sorely by one drop of our children's blood. We are good Americans in trying times watching our jobs are being our main export. Both parties have their extreme wings I just happen to choose the one that supports my best interests as one of the 47 % being sneered and jeered at by a lying plutocrat richer than Croesus. Think what you will of me ,I will always remain who I am . A blue collar Democrat with mud on my boots and callouses on my hands.
