Poll question: Agree or Disagree?
Republicans are the party of power--raw, naked power at any and all cost.

Democrats are the party of government, but increasingly choose to govern like the party of power.

1. I agree.
Both party's are getting closer and closer to each others ideas. And the average American, you know the under $50k American, is getting fucked royal in the process.

We are in a bad way folks, and it's not getting any better.

3. It is amazing to me how
most Americans are just oblivious to their own decline.

6. I disagree in that the Democrats have completely forgotten how to govern and certainly aren't...
...governing like a party of power.

7. Disagree... they're two sides of the same coin
they change the "branding," but behind the scenes, their goals become common.

8. You've got it all wrong
Republicans are the party of ground round but lust to be Cheetos.

Democrats are the party of thirty weight motor oil, but have been governing like box wine.

9. Democrats do not govern more like the power party
They govern more and more like the half of the power party that they are.

11. Sadly they usually choose to govern like the party bound to lose the next election.
