1. People don't have time for that shit. They will be concerned about their pocketbooks.

Only DUers with nothing to do will be concerned about it being a referendum.

By then milk will be 5.00 a gallon and voters will just want that shit FIXED and the best person to fix it. And so far, republicans have sucked major big sweaty donkey balls on fixing all things pocket book related.

Why do you think they want that $600 in your pocket. Not to buy books on which had the best administration.

Oh and did I mention this is a stupid poll.

4. The Republicans will steer clear of Clinton hatred and the media will keep us focused on the issues
Talk about false hopes. :thumbsup:

2. It's always about the Clintons!!
People have opinions that have built up over the past 16 years. The Clintons are by their presence a smoke screen that will obscure the issues. This will not be the walk in the park for the democrats. Hillary is in for a big surprise. They may have pulled Obama off his "pedestal", but Bill and Hillary have been pulling the ropes from the gutter.

3. People might feel guilty falling for the RNC's ruse about "clinton fatigue" in 2000. nt

9. It will be the end of the Democratic party
And pretty much the end of America as we know it.

If we (the collective American voters) can't figure out that we have been repeatedly screwed (and not in a good way) for the last 28 years, and vote for more of the same, then all hope is gone.
