Poll question: How do YOU think the Dems are doing with all the recent news?
We have the Republican predator scandal and all its many aspects.

We have Woodward's book.

We have a rapidly deteriorating situation in Iraq.

We have near anarchy (again) in Afghanistan.

We have a lying and increasingly unbelievable president.

We have a Secretary of State who is showing herself to be the irrelevant hateful nitwit we all knew her to be.

We have poll after poll moving steadily in our direction.

The question in this poll is sorta simple ..... maybe.

In ***your*** view, are the Democrats in control of events, and if so, are they playing it right?

Please take a moment to leave a comment or three.

1. When your enemy is busy destroying himself, don't interfere
They're doing great...they just need to let the circular firing squad the GOP has formed do its work.

2. Out of control is my vote....this is a minefield (it should NOT be of
course!), but the microsecond attention span of most Americans and the massive lying and deception campaign of the right makes this a very very challenging time to navigate in...

3. We Don't Have a LEADER
Who can grab opportunity by the throat and ride it to glory. Perhaps, though, we have a few honest brokers and legislators who can turn the Ship of State around. I hope so, anyway, for all our sakes. Even the dumbest, meanest Freep doesn't deserve DubyaCo.

6. The Dems are scared shitless?
I think you've got that wrong. The REPUBLICANS are scared shitless. The only thing we have to fear as a party are diebold machines!

13. Yes, that's right. I wrote the questions.
It is up to others to give answers.

Questions imply that their poser doesn't know the answer and wishes the questioned to provide that.

A statement, on the other hand, is the view of the stater.

So ..... those were questions, not statements.

14. The fact that it was a choice is absurd.
It's like Bush asking if democrats are pro-terrorist or just anti-security.
