to show them, if you aren't working for us, you aren't working in Washington, until they get the picture?

That is a fantastic idea. For once I agree with you. These tenured friggin congressmen make me ill.

If you had read many of my previous posts, that has been my campaign. I'm not asking anyone to change parties, just vote in the primaries for the best candidate in your party that is not the incumbent. This is the best way to send a message that the American people are fed up with the status quo.

How come the dems still support clinton and obama. they don't care what anyone thinks, they want amnesty, they are right in there with Kennedy and the President and McCain, (who by the way is being slaughtered for that support). My two senators from Florida will not get my vote again.

Not a bad plan. I saw this on bumper stickers in the late '80's. It's where Ross Perot came from, in my opinion.
But then people see their third party candidate beaten and fall back into the routine...
Or start getting anarchist, which is worse. JMO

I think we'd have to extend the terms. We can't have Congress replaced every two years because they'd do nothing more than spend their time campaigning.
Of course, that might be good. LOL

Yes. How they keep getting elected is
beyond comprehension.
If new people were elected, my mind could change.

Politicians should declare their policies, and be held accountable for them. Replacing one corrupt politician with another corrupt politician makes no difference.

You can try. If you vote one person out, the person coming in may be worse.

Sure, and then the new guys will be incumbents.

Yes. At least this crop should ALL go to send a message.
