    Democrats Committing Political Suicide

    I thought some of you may be interested in this. I don't know how many of you are watching the votes in the House today on the Cap & Trade amendment in the Climate Change bill, but the Democrats are going to slaughter their party over this energy bill. During the votes, people are calling in and I'm telling you, it's not just the Republicans who are against it. Every Democrat who has called in is against this bill and are saying that if it is passed they will never vote Democrat again. Small business owners are calling in saying this will cause their business to shut down. I doubt that we will see a majority of Democrats in the House next year.

    tinybob, I have thought that the Democrats were committing political suicide since the first day Obama took office. His ideas and methods were beyond the pale even for a left of center Democrats. As you know, Cap and Trade is only one in a litany of radical bills that Obama has up his sleeve. It amazes me everyday that his fellow Democrats are following in lockstep with this madness even when they know their party is about to die a "death of a thousand cuts" from the radical direction they are driving this country!

    I agree tinybob, they shoot themselves in the foot everytime they are in power.

    Moderates like myself agree with some Dem. policies but more and more they are going so far radical socialistic left I and many others are appalled with their antics on Capital Hill.

    We need to clean house in congress on BOTH sides of the isle and get people elected who will work for "We The People".

    Agreed. They have a lengthy track record of it. It seems they can rarely control their wildest impulses, which are out-of-step with American voters who generally hug the middle.

    Bill Clinton overreached during his first two years on Pennsylvania Avenue, and veered sharply back to the center, as a result of voter backlash, during the remainder of his presidency.

    tinybob - I was listening to C-Span too, and heard the same thing. The majority of callers I heard were actually self-identified Democrats angry about the Cap & Trade. They were vocal about their anger with the DemocRat Party over this. It was great!!!

    Good news! Any democrat that could support such a thing has to be missing some brain cells. I have been seeing many democrats recently in the various forums I frequent turning on Obama. We must gain their support to get anywhere in this country.

    It's just amazing me that over half the House can't stand prosperity, think people have too much money, and that it will be better when millions more lose their jobs.

    If anyone has the chance to talk to Dems who are also angry, for example on another forum as jshhmr mentions, invite them to attend an upcoming Tea Party if they weren't already planning to. The Tea Parties, as most here already know, are non-partisan, though they have likely included more Republicons than Dems up until this point. There is a central website that lists many of the Tea Party locations, it was posted here within the last couple days. Or one could just google Tea Parties to find it
