Please check out this article about how we can sway the vote.
But this article couldn't come out at a worst time. I say this because if the Dems do lose, guess who will get blamed... No, not the Tea Party.
I know we are mad, but it's not that serious. We should know that this will be a long term battle. I hate to say that, but it could be a reality. The Dems are our only chance of getting things done. No 3rd party or the GOP are going to help, that's a fantasy.
We need to vote and vote Dem-O-Crat! We are fooling ourselves if we think sitting out is the best method. It's a dumb method! We need to make our voices heard and we need to do it in an effective way. So we should vote and hold our elected officials accountable once they are in.
But in all seriousness, folks who are super mad. Get over your anger and get to the polls. Think about the possible setbacks and the Bush years. That will put some sugar in your tea.
Let me say that I am just one member of the LGBT community who is angry at Obama for saying he'll do something, and then not doing it.
ReplyDeleteFor remaining silent on important issues like Prop 8; for waiting and waiting to address the recent spate of LGBTQ suicodes. For DADT and DOMA.
That said, I don't think by voting "the other party" is in any way shapr or form in our best interests.
So, no, I won't be voting the other guy because I'm mad at THE guy.
Don't worry, we're going to vote. But if the Dems lose Congress, the gays won't be blamed, and neither will be the teabaggers. It's the that circus of idiocy of Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid who need to assume full responsibility.
ReplyDeleteHarry Reid may go down in history as the worst Senate Majority Leader in American History. I don't want him to lose his seat, but I most definitely don't want the Dems to reelect him Majority Leader if they manage to keep their majority in the Senate. They should elect someone with a backbone.
