Reasons to vote Democratic You're concerned about health care costs You're concerned about your childs education You are concerned about the national debt You are concerned with the reputation of the US abroad Hmmm.... No platform offered as yet nor discussed other than "The Dems will take care of healthcare." Not too worried about my kids education. They are getting a decent education, albeit quite dumbed down from when I went to school. The methods the liberals advocate to teach nowadays are infuriating. "approximation" in math for obtaining answers. No memorization of multiplication tables so now we have 4th and 5th graders who don't know how to multiply or divide. Mimosa math. ::puke:: National debt. Truly beyond my control or care or prolly true understanding. Numbers are so large they are meaningless. US has a fine Rep overseas with the countries that matter. I have no interest in appeasing any of the Socialist countries, nor the UN countries who hate our guts. They can go pound sand. They have their hands out and put knives in our back. Let them take their UN and leave our country. We can use the billions of dollars that we support them with to cut down our own debt. You have ideas, you offer no solutions. Neither do the repubs at this point, but I am not going to change leadership to someone who only has a record of second guessing.

nytimes.com Mr. Clinton and several lawmakers like Senators Christopher Dodd of Connecticut, Joseph R. Biden Jr. of Delaware and Frank R. Lautenberg of New Jersey have appeared with Mr. Lieberman, some of the bigger stars, including Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York, have stayed away. “Actions speak louder than words,” said Steve McMahon, a Democratic consultant. “The fact is, many of Joe Lieberman’s colleagues have been up to campaign for him, but many others have not.” A small core of Democrats, including Senators Ken Salazar of Colorado, Mark Pryor of Arkansas and Daniel K. Inouye of Hawaii, have pledged to remain with Mr. Lieberman regardless of the primary outcome. But even those people say they expect many other Democrats, including people who feel affection for Mr. Lieberman, to be torn about helping him in the general election. “I think the hard part comes if Joe doesn’t win the primary,” said Senator Thomas R. Carper of Delaware. “If he’s not the nominee of our party, to try to decide where their loyalties lie post-Aug. 8, for some people that will be hard.” As for himself, Mr. Carper said: “I’m with Joe. I have been and I will be.”
