Prepare to get laughed at.

Answer 2

You are delusional if you think that it was only the democrats who were voting for democrats in the last election. While we all know that many were truly voting AGAINST Bush more then they were actually voting for a democrat, the effect is the same.

It is unfortunate that Nancy Polaski (sp) was put in charge and Reid is not helping anything, but the same can be said about republicans and their choice of being to far to the right can't it?

As for the upcoming Presidential race I am supporting a republican this time because I believe what he says in contrast to the majority of the candidates whose only difference is the label of republican or democrat but they have all sold out to the same special interest groups.

Ron Paul 08' - the only candidate that hasn't compromised his beliefs in favor of the almighty dollar.

Answer 3

I've been fighting it for years.

"Split"

"By the late 1960s the most powerful figures in the Socialist Party of America were Max Shachtman and Michael Harrington, who agreed upon a parallel strategy of maintaining the Socialist Party as an independent third party that fielded its own candidates, and acting as a pressure group within the Democratic Party. The party itself had become divided into three caucuses. One was the Debs Caucus led by David McReynolds, which wanted to pursue the traditional position of the Socialist Party as an independent political party and held the most strongly "leftist" position within the group. Another was the "centrist" Coalition Caucus led by Michael Harrington, which also had a leftist orientation, but wanted to work within the Democratic Party to pull it to the left. Finally, the "rightist" Unity Caucus led by Max Shachtman were strong supporters of the Lyndon Johnson/"Scoop" Jackson wing of the Democratic Party that supported hawkish anti-Communism abroad and civil rights and the Great Society program domestically.[4] [5]"

"This split was reflected in party members opinions about the Vietnam War and the New Left – Shachtman and his followers increasingly supported the war and greatly distrusted the New Left, Harrington was strongly opposed to the war, but was nevertheless suspicious of the New Left, while the Debs Caucus opposed the war and embraced the New Left. Conversely, of all the three groups, the Shachtmanites maintained the strongest tendency to Marxist orthodoxy (or their version of it) and democratic centralism, while the other two caucuses were more eclectic in their approach to socialism. This division manifest most strongly during the 1968 Democratic Convention, in which members of the Debs Caucus were among the protesters outside of the convention, while members of the Coalition and Unity Caucuses were among the convention delegates.[4] [5]"

"By 1972, the party was even more deeply divided, with the party newspaper, New America, running opposing articles on practically every issue.[5] During the 1972 presidential election, each caucus supported a different candidate; the Debs Caucus supported the independent candidacy of Benjamin Spock, the Coalition Caucus supporting the liberal Democratic nominee George McGovern, and the Unity Caucus supporting the Democratic primary run of Henry M. "Scoop" Jackson, then declaring their neutrality between McGovern and Richard Nixon when Jackson failed to win the nomination.[4] [5]"

"The Debs Caucus finally broke with the party in 1972 to form the Union for Democratic Socialism.[4] (David McReynolds had left the party in 1970,[5] but rejoined the breakaway group.) The UDS became the Socialist Party USA in 1973 when all other factions had abandoned the name "Socialist Party". The Socialist Party USA developed into a small third party in U.S. politics, which now has about 1,000 members in good standing and regularly runs candidates for public office, though often these are more educational campaigns than they are serious attempts to win.[6]"

"Michael Harrington and the Coalition Caucus left the party soon after. They became the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee (later the Democratic Socialists of America),[4] which worked within the Democratic Party but in support of its left wing. They enjoyed some successes in the 1970s, but were marginalized by their dependence on Harrington's personality and later support for Jesse Jackson."

"This left Shachtman and the Unity Caucus in unopposed control of the party (though Shachtman himself died very soon after). In 1973, this group renamed it the Social Democrats USA. It evolved into more of a think tank than a political organization, with many of its members later holding important governmental offices in both Democratic and Republican administrations."

Answer 4

They won't. They are a mess.
As long as George Soros is supplying the money and MoveOn is determining the agenda, don't expect them to get organized and get rid of Reid and Pelosi.
Even Murtha is getting frustrated and gave Pelosi a peice of his mind over this Turkey thing.

Answer 5

Answer 6
