They'll do anything to make sure they don't have to get off their ass and ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING.

I swear, I've never seen a party that despise their own voters more than the Democratic party. Even the republicans at least TRY to appeal the their voters interest, even if that interest is mostly just bigotry and religious zealotry.

Right. R's have the advantage of appealing to the people who are so dedicated to authority that they can just lie to their face and the best response is 'why would he lie? He's wearing a suit!'

Dem's used to have that advantage in the 90's but didn't have the stomach for real work, which ultimately is how they bled their own weakness into the open air to target and it ended up being genocide of the Gazans that laid it out for all to see
