today's democratic leadership failure

I almost could not believe the headline I read today. "You may hate us, but GOP is worse."

... That's the best you can come up with?

Seriously, if the best message you can come up with to try and sway voters to your side is "don't hate us please", there's something wrong with your ideology, or your politics, or your actions. If you cannot point to your ideology, platform, or campaign promises because there is too much of a stigma on them for failing worse than any other platform in the history of the United States, just step down.

This isn't just my opinion. This is the majority of Americans' opinions.

A Rasmussen poll in August shows that Congress' approval rating is 16%.

Sixteen percent!

That earns them a Disapproval Rating of 84%. Vote the bums out!

In May of this year, Rasmussen conducted a poll asking voters if a random selection from the phone book would perform better in Congress than those presently in office. Care to take a guess as to what the response was?

61% of voters responded "yes" or "maybe", with 38% dissenting.

If 61% of voters think there's an even chance that a random person, with unknown temperament, unknown morals, unknown religion, unknown education, unknown political affiliation, unknown ideology, unknown sympathies, unknown agenda, can do a better job than the politicians currently in power there's something very, very wrong.

Vote the arrogant elitists out of office! They work for us! They should be afraid of the people, the people should not be afraid of the government. Send them the message-

DON'T TREAD ON ME!
