I am not apathetic. I am actively pissed off at this administration's compromises and failures. There's a huge difference.

I don't need to be motivated. I need candidates that will fight for the people of this country rather than tell me that they are better than the alternative.

Disappointment is not the same thing as apathy. When our democratic politicians label us apathetic, they are passing the blame for their failures on to us and I'm tired of it.

I don't want to hear about how bad the republicans would be. I want to hear about how good the democrats will be.

I don't want to be told that I am ignorant of the many wonderful things this administration has done. I want them to admit that that they've underestimated their opposition, compromised their positions on issues that are vital to the people of this country, and I want them to promise to do better.

They will come out to vote or risk a GOP Gov't

We CANNOT AFFORD THE GOP and their crazy ideas of privatizing Medicare, SS, and the VA Hospital system...

10 years of tax cuts for the billionaires only made THEM richer and us poorer...what a snow job Bush did....
