Singing Democrats: It’s My Party, I'll Cry If I Want To!

The loose coalition of splinter groups known as the Democratic Party is coming apart at their “Progressive” seams, and they have only themselves to blame. The only thing most “typical Democrats” have in common with each other is their hatred for the Republican Party, particularly President Bush. But the battle cry of “01-20-09” is giving away to “my way, or the highway!”


Recently Gallup conducted a series of polls that focused on the Obama and Clinton supports. The foundation for the polls was to determine what the supporters of either candidate would do if their candidate lost. No surprise, they would sulk and refuse to support the other Democrat:


If I don't get what I want, I am outta of here!


The modern Democratic Party has been on a path of destruction for a long time, due in large part to their inability to commit to a common set of principles that most American's can embrace. The Democrats seem to lack the discipline to stop their own infighting long enough to focus on the issues important to America. Instead they latch onto the issues, or I should a say the narrow view of particular issues, that only seem to be important to the fringe groups. These fringe groups are more likely to eat their young to promote their cause, and truth be told, would really prefer to be on their own, unattached from the Party system. These fringe groups exude passion for their cause, but they lack the discipline and commonsense needed in order to achieve their goals.


The fringe elements that make up the Democratic Party are destroying the organization from the inside out. The elements that make up the Democratic Party seem more concerned about resolving their own self interest, than unifying to solve the issue that affect America on a whole. The Democratic Party is ready to implode, and a lost in November could be the match to the fuse.

yep, it sure seems that way.

The country as a whole may well ask---how can the Democrats be trusted to govern this country when they can't even govern/take charge of their own party?
