I mean look at Hilary Clinton - who needs her? Senator McCain looks like the real deal. Please explain (I am British) - why would anyone support the Democrats?

You're so right, my British friend, who does need her, or John Kerry, Howard Dean, George Soros, Nancy Pelosi, Teddy Kennedy, and the list goes on.

Typically. young people with no practical experience in life, vote for the liberal candidate. Winston Churchill said it best when asked this question. He replied: "When you're twenty years old and not a liberal, you have no heart. When you're forty years old and are not a conservative, you have no brain."

It is my profound wish and belief, that once again, the democrats will be soundly beaten at the polls. Thanks for your support!

The Democratic Party is the party for underachievers and weirdos. They do have some good members, Senator Joe Lieberman comes to mind, but the party leaders cater to the ignorant and to peoples fears...at the expense and inconvenience of, well, normal people.

If a political party were a person, the Democratic Party would be Oprah...100% touchy-feely, convoluted logic, a distaste for the concept of right and wrong, without solid principals, and a victim mentality.

Unfortunately, in the United States, there are many, many people who subscribe to such a platform...and it's their right to do so. It will implode eventually however...that mindset is not sustainable. Sooner or later, there will be more victims than there are "perps"...and somebody will have to sort out the mess.

Not all Democrats are woolly liberals. There are a few left that have not given in to the Clinton,Kerry, or Kennedy liberal ideology. Don't let Hillary hear this or you might end up committing suicide in Fort Marcy Park.

The democrats are anything but wooly liberals. Like them or loathe them it's a point of fact that they're further right than the conservative option in most European countries. They're certainly further right than the UK tory party. The whole paradigm of American politics is right-leaning, most of the American electorate who complain about liberalism wouldn't know real liberalism if it bit them in the ***.

That said I despise Hilary and am a huge fan of Mccain (just not his platform unfortunately).

In the two party system in the U.S. their are extremist in both parties. Just because someone is a Republican or a Democrat you can not judge the party by views of these individuals.

Their are members of both parties that give each party a bad name. When voting for an individual their are many factors to take into consideration. You must do you research and hope for the best.

Because they have a different belief system. People are different, my friend and not all liberals/democrats support Hillary Clinton. Everyone has different views, morals, and opinions. Don't just label people liberal or conservative and hate them. Find out who they are, what they believe. After that you can dispise them, but don't pretend to know me when you've never met me.

Democrats are like Labour in the UK.

Well Wingy....
Not all of us "Yanks" (being from a Southern family...I HATE that name) are bleeding hearts.
However...a good number of us conservatives are tired of the embarassing and ineffectual way that the current administration is running things.
But if you must know....I would rather see McCain in office than Comrade Clinton.

You should know that... there are more PC leftist over there than even here. And McCain isn't much better in some respects

Others in Britain think that Hillary can take it all based on world name recognition. Most Brits don't know who John McCain is by name or face. I told them, "It doesn't matter what you think, its what voting Americans think."
