Our Poll Was A Success! We Now Know How Many Honest Politicians |
|
are left in our federal government. One in the Senate, Thirty-one in the House of Representatives. Now,we know the score, basically a one-party government. The Big Money Party. When we start our nnew party though, I suggest we keep the word Democratic in our name. It will be easier to get the last few to join. Any Suggestions?

3. that is pretty much my take on it |
|
I figure if this wasn't worth a protest vote then maybe they don't really want reform. Maybe they are waiting their turn to steal an election. It was great that the contest made the news today, but when folks read the 74 - 1 vote I don't imagine they will give election irregularities a second thought. Time for new Government period.

Now that I know the score, it only makes sense to start another team. Due to my health and finances it will impossible for me to leave the country. So I'm gonna make the best of my situation. Is anyone using The Progressive Democrat Party? I know there's a website. Is it an actual party. We might even get a merger together with the Greens and the Socialists. Makes sense to me.

6. Sorry to hear that - but you're better off starting a new party, |

Because the Democratic Party will not self-destruct as a result of implementing a day of successful political strategy. Much as the opposition would like that to happen.

7. I'm not the opposition. |
|
I fully expect them to carry on the charade of having a two party system. Even though now we know better.

8. It's possible to be honest . . . |
|
. . . and still believe that Ohio's electoral votes should have been accepted.
My problem is with those Senators and Representatives who spoke not to address the issues, but to say that this is a waste of time that shouldn't be discussed.
