Vote a straight Democratic ticket, pals. Kerry must have support in Congress. And we want control of the House Judiciary Committee, whose chairman would be John Conyers under Democrats.

Take it all back!

1. Have you noticed that NO ONE has mentioned that word this year?
They can't discuss possible JK coattails with having to discus Bush*'s lack of them!

4. I think the only one running with Bush* by their side was Daschle
Bush* was toxic for republicans and none wanted him around.

3. For the first time in our lives...
...my wife and I are voting a straight Democratic ticket. Even following the party's recommendation on the propositions. I have voted for Greens and even worthy Republicans -- yeah, there are some, particularly at the local level -- in the past, but it's YELLOW DOG days for us after four years of BushCo.

The way this gang plays is purely partisan. If they have one vote more than the Dems, they consider it a mandate since they'll threaten their fellow 'pugs with all manner of ill should they step out of party line.

"I vote for the man" is fine in a bipartisam environment, but the way the Repugs have set it up so that we feel we must vote the the party -- The Democratic Party -- to get anything done.
