Historically- at least for the past two generations- the democrat party has appealed to the lowest, the most base of human emotions-FEAR & HATE..


Every one of the democrat "leaders" (think Maxine/Hillary/Obama) have always relied upon those two low-levwl human emotions to stir up the mob.

Conservatives are more likely to offer the masses hope and chances to work for a better life in a free society. Democrats are frightened (FEAR, again) of free people making up their own minds as to what to think, what to say, how to act, etc.

Sop, conservatives love free folk, democrats love frightened angry folks... who's gonna win?

Your spot on. The democrats, in my eyes, love to fear monger. Pandering to the lowest possible emotions of fear and hate are easy for them to do when most of their supporters are babbied college students living in their safe space sampuses unwilling and never ready to face the real world. They think that if they are able to push this narritive that they will garner more votes, and it seems to work.

Personally, I do not think the democrats will win. Talking with my work colliuges, all of us working in some sort of political isle, have concluded that the divisions in the democratic party are wide. They have pandered to such small groups that moderates and independents who mught vote democratic are not doing that anymore, and its caused great division. I am insistant that they will gain some seats, but not take control. It doesnt seem likley since their opionions and hopes for the country go completley against the values of the american way.

Well, the democrats should not win and could never hope to win IF the public was better schooled in the basics of rational thinking.

The only "message" from the candidates and cheerleaders of the left is "Trump is awful", and "Republicans are going to kill us all".

Yes, they do think universal health care promises  and free everything else will sway the ignorant and they may be right, but as for real policy????

Exactly. That is their only message, and I do not deny that for one second. The dems only hope to to turn enough people against Trump through their use of fear mongering to sway the election.

To the dem leadership and their supporters it is real policy but to the rest of the US it is not. I disagree with pretty much everything the left puts out policy wise. I've never supported them and I write for my job against it every single day.

That's the problem. the left is very good at attracting idiots but its a deeper problem then that. Its a culture that needs to be broke and a system that needs to be fixed. You can't just over night expect that these liberal kids are going to pull their head out of their ass wake up. Its a mentality. Each side believes they are fighting for what's right, and it creates a huge division in our political world.

Let's just face it. The reason the democrats do not share a message is they do have one. However, even they know if they told the truth about their message they would never win anther election.

I can agree with that. The policies and message of the left have become so radical there seems to be no sane middle ground they can capitalize on. As I said before I feel like the party has become so niche, that they fear losing one single voter by retracting one of their causes. If they did go out and speak their truth, everyone would turn against them. They'd lose millions of votes.

Are they that powerful or has the GOP been that weak?


Good question.
How long has Ryan represented us in the House? How many spineless republicans longing to be true blue democrats are there in Congress?

Exactly! It's not that they're weak, its that they're leftists.

If the parties are supposed to be about ideas and results then the democrat party is weaker than lite beer. Everything they propose has been tried and failed in the most awful despotic regimes in the world.
