That's a tough one since they're both pretty bad.
On the one hand, we've got the Democrats--a party that's never met a tax it didn't like--who want to tax and spend us to death. Bad.
On the other hand, we've got the Republicans--a party that purports to be "fiscally responsible"--who spend just as much, refuse to tax, and rack up record budget deficits in the process. Bad.
It's like the Democrats are robbing your house through the front door by taking the cash directly out of your paycheck and spending it, and the Republicans are stealing through the back window by claiming to be forthright, taking your money LATER (by forcing the Democrats to hike taxes to pay for the expenditures the next time they're in power), and spending just the same.
Both are equally as useless, and Ralph Nader--the man who wanted to cut the military by 2/3rds the year before 9/11--is a clown.
We're screwed!

The Republicans have lost their minds, and the Deomocrats have become the biggest joke in modern history. Asking who is more useless is kind of like the reasoning behind nuclear disarmament...no need to kill again what is already dead. We desperately need some new leaders with fresh thinking and no more Skull and Bones clubbers or ultra rich, out of touch egomaniacal freaks. Surely, there must be some decent folks willing to do the right stuff. Screw both parties.

I am a Democrat, and I am beginning to think Democrats are useless. I can't ally myself with the Republican party, yet I feel I would waste my votes on someone like Ralph Nader, despite the fact that I like everything he stands for. Republicans are organized and know exactly where to stick it to Democrats. Dems, on the other hand, have to get their heads from up their butts and start agreeing on issues that would make this country better. We can't get along with just John Kerry and Barbara Boxer, and Hillary, why don't you just come out and say whether you're running in '08 so we can start rallying our support now?

they all suck - all politicians do is cover their own butts. They don't care about you. Except for John Kerry - he was the greatest war hero that ever lived. Viva la ketchup husband.

depends on what you mean by useless, theres an old saying about politics and power, those that want the job shouldnt be the ones who get it.

Democrats definitely more USELESS as they havent had the balls to stand up to Bush and the Republicans and stop their raping of our constitutional rights.
Republicans are just more EVIL.

Republicans because they have the power to do great things and don't do anything.

Useless people come from all party lines. John Kerry(D) useless, Licoln Chaffey (R) useless. There's enough uselessness to go around.
