1. These folks cuss like a drunken sailor (my apologies to those who have, in fact been drunken sailors).
2. They have conveniently forgotten that the Civil Rights act only passed because President Johnson got the Republicans to vote for it. The Democrats, including the Byrd, were "agin" it.
3. There are quite a few folks who think of us what is true of them. IOW, they lie, they mislead, etc.
4. The majority of posters don't seem to see Hillary as different from the Republicans like Chaffee and Snow as illustrated here...
   2392861, Dear Senator Clinton:Posted by nealmhughes on Sun Jul-16-06 04:02 AM
   There is a class war afoot and you and your husband are prime instigators on the corporate side.Enjoy your stay in the Senate, people are getting fed up with you. You tucked your tail and dropped universal health care like it was a hot potato. You are a backbencher. You are only popular amongst your fundraisers whom you coddle and the MSM who would love to see you run so the Republicans could stay in power.Why are you even a Democrat? Lincoln Chaffee is a Republican...and so was Jeffords...and so is Susan Collins and Olympia Snow -- do you see yourself in opposition to them???So what you are saying is that offshoring our jobs (thanks for NAFTA, Bill) and a quarter of the country still lacking health insurance, and a stupid war still waging in Iraq, with whom the US has never had a quarrel before now, and Osama still out there somewhere (try a palace in Mecca or Karachi) and no opposition that can surmount the Republican hegemony that we need to "play nice?"No, go fundraise with Rupert Murdoch or whomever it is you hobnot with these days. Chuck Shumer is the senator from New York.
5. I was amazed to read something that Rush Limbaugh could have written.
   Hillary has no core values. She believes in nothing and she stands for nothing except her own ambition.

These folks are the base of the Democrat party. Do you think these folks are mainstream? Not in my neck of the woods.
