Why vote Democrat?

[InTheLight]

Ever worked in a coal mine?

No, no I haven't.

Wondering what that has to do with anything.

 

[kyredneck]

Yes.... and in a factory, and on a sodd farm and on a golf course as a grounds keeper. Drilled dells, pumped out water, installed water and sewers.How bout you?

Never dug coal.

Yes, I remember Tip O'Neal's adage, However, local elections do influence the national scene. In my case, DiFi is a senior senator and de Leon is a philosophical "bomb thrower." And this whole thread is about why should someone vote Democrat.

How’s this then, “the devil that you know is better than the one you don’t”... then there is that the Democrat is one who preformed better than the republican candidate.

Never dug coal.

Did you ever work a labor job?

 

[Earth Wind and Fire]

No, no I haven't.

Would you like me to tell ya?

I don’t vote party lines... I vote for the person who will best represent the state, the community, and my own interests. If I don’t trust someone, I don’t vote for them.

Bob Hugan? What a joke.

Don't care. We'll take him.

 

[kyredneck]

Did you ever work a labor job?

All my life.

If Trump was elected to "drain the swamp", then why are we restocking it?

The overwhelming majority of candidates of both parties are familiar names and "part of the problem".

You are not getting any responses I’ve noticed

 

[Earth Wind and Fire]

Please.

Politicians can afford to discuss real life issues like burning coal... and bringing coal jobs back... not caring of course how it’s gotten and at what price. My bottom line is I would insist that every idealist, every lofty bourgeois, work with his hands at a desperate living, in the field and mine and factory, before he ever uttered one word in ‘behalf of mankind.”

You mean trump has gone down the path of bankruptcy a few times don’t you. Bankruptcy is one of the things the guy does best.

Would you have preferred someone like Perot in office in place of all that has transpired since?

 

[Earth Wind and Fire]

Don't care. We'll take him.

You will take a politician who is for abortion?

I don’t recall Perot... you will have to Enlighten me.

 

[Earth Wind and Fire]

All my life.

Oh really... never a government job ?

If an 'R' abortionist beats a 'D' abortionist it takes us closer to that magic number of '60'.

Ross Perot, the tycoon who ran independently against Bush and Clinton.

Some people don’t care to waste their time with rhetorical statements. Others seem to thrive on wasting anyone’s time if it gets them the attention they crave, even as they resort to insults, & contribute nothing of value. Seems there are no consequences here for posters who repeatedly have to have posts removed. No wonder you’re here 24/7. No consequences=spoiled child behavior. Get to it now, must be time to question my intelligence, my manhood, or the old standby, I should go chase myself. Pathetic.

And this whole thread is about why should someone vote Democrat.

And when one nothing constructive to say on the subject, they blow smoke or just muddy the waters.

 

[kyredneck]

Yea. And I labored, diligently, responsibly, and was promoted to supervisory and then management level, which also happens to be '"labor jobs" in their own right.

I don't know what your point is. Is it that those that work with their hands cannot be a Republican?
