Because they're haters.
My prediction is that the dems will NOT retake congress in the midterm elections.
But you say look at the polls, the presidents approval rating is at historic lows, and the republican led congress is even worse!
Here's the problem as i see it, the democrats ideas/message either don't exist or are so negative that no one wants to hear it. They talk about surrender in Iraq, impeaching the president, "paying" for tax cuts. They blame the republicans for the high gas prices, the poor response to natural disasters, and global warming. (which i don't believe in)
So what's their answer? What's their idea to make things right?
That wasn't a rhetorical question, i'm really looking for an answer, and so are the rest of the voters!

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce a new contributor to The Aurora.
Ladies and gentlemen....
Rhino-it-all
Thank you, i'll be here all week, don't forget to tip your bartender, and now a warm welcome for REO speedwagon!!!!!!!
but what about next week rhinoculous?
"you take it on the run baby
if that's the way you want it baby
then i don't want you around"
I was standing on the line for the lunch in San Francisco. A guy named Tunafish introduced himself to me. He had expensive shoes. He was no traveller. He looked like REO Speedwagon.
A guy in The Damned was growing up in London. What a wacky hippie household. He became convinced, during his adolescence, that he was the "Monty Python" of Monty Python. As it turned out, he sort of was.
Sort of like the guy playing the organ.
Interesting.....who is the real Tunafish?
no guarantees for next week, i've been extremely busy. but if it makes you feel better, i've missed you.
if i think i understand trixie, does that mean i'm crazy?
yes
What did you take some viagra today or something Rhino? Three times in one day...so unlike you. You never takes a second cup of coffee at home, but you are right. Its a shame that during your sabbatical you missed an entertaining debate at TBR on this very same subject, but worry not...as usual without even really trying I ran circles around the hippies and let them make my point for me thru their rebuttals against me.
Like Ive said before, if the Dems cant capture Congress in '06 and the Blano Casa in '08 then they have ceased to be a viable alternative and need to be taken out back and shot like the ol' yellow dogs that they are.
What is this REO Speedwagon that you speak of? Is it a Long Island thing?
I hear ya Ben, but the problem now is the huge disparity of the suckiness. The dems are absolutely useless, and I take no glee from that, actually quite the opposite. It scares the living shit out of me. There is no counter weight to the GOP who have long abandoned this former long haired country boy. The republicans dont deserve to keep control but as you stated I cant see how they dont.
Im starting a real 3rd party right here right now, not sure about the name yet..but the Aurorans or Donkeyhuns sounds good. Whos with me...well worry bout the platform later, as that doesnt seem to be too integral. Now cough up the cash and lets get this freight train a rolling.
I'm with you donkey, and i agree that this is not a good thing. It seems to me that everyone sucks, and they're mostly sucking in the same direction!
The Auroran party sounds like a really good idea to me!
Of course i would have to be our candidate, because not only am i appealing to women voters, but also i'm not a jackass!
Donkey, this question was not debated at TBR- instead of talking about the topic you threw in that Howard Dean is a hater (the WORST hater! You said. It was like something out of Protein Wisdom)
Then you said he has never had a policy inititiative (name one, you said)and LOC
mentioned his children's insurance program, history of budget surplus, and strategy to restructure campaign funds via DNC.
You did not get into Dems message, or anything else. Then I said since we were talking about another issue that we could debate Howard Dean over here. Is he or is he not the worst hater? It was never a debate about the Dems and their strategy.
Thus I decided I was too busy for that silly question and told you LOC answered it.
Are you tired from running circles? You are a legend in your own ass. Where your head's been hanging out.
heeee hawwww back atcha pompous-hue!!!!!!
I'm not a Democrat or a Republican, I agree with Donsky.
Getting to select the tool by which sodomy is administered does not make it more pleasurable or more welcome.
you go grrl !!
li-LY, li-LY, li-LY !!
I hate to say it, no I dont,but you are wrong, As wrong as wrong can be.
I will post the jackassery debate if I must. Id rather not. What was your argument again?...Im not allowed to mention Franken or Fox or Clinton.
My point
You keep score. I expect more from them and you commies allow less.
"Getting to select the tool by which sodomy is administered does not make it more pleasurable or more welcome."
the woman's got a way with words, though, n'est pas ... ? (oh, that's French, btw)

*snort*
;)
snort?
you know, *snort* ... the sound you make when you laugh ... (or, well, the sound I make when I laugh) ooops !!! i forgot, YOU go eeee awwww. never mind !!!
(particularly if "ONE" is drinking soda and laughing --- then the soda might end up on the computer monitor ... but that's a story for another day ...)
Tell me more of this laughter of which you speak.
Why am I not surprised that rhino does does believe in global warming? Rhino, it's better to base political policy on science than to base your science on politics. As the editor of Science magazine said, there is a 90-95% scientific consensus on global warming at this point. (And the others are on Exxon's payroll.)
well i think there was a time when 90-95% of the scientists thought the world was flat, and the other 5% were on exxon's payroll too.
I also think there was a time when 90-95% of the scientists believed the sun rotated around the earth
i could go on, but what i really meant to say was that i don't believe we are the main cause of any climate change. so if the earth is warming or cooling or whatever it is a natural occurance and can't be changed by me riding a bicycle to work every day.
I don't think there was ever a time when most scientists thought the earth was flat--common folks, maybe, but not scientists. The Greeks knew the earth was round.
You're right about scientists believing that the sun went around the earth, although that was mostly because the Bible says so.
However, feel free to go with your gut feelings over science.Science magazine reviewed 1000 studies and they all supported global warming, but then none of the scientists had the chance to talk to you, and I'm sure they would have changed their opinions if they had.
