Palin is not another private citizen. She is an ex gov, who quit, ex vp nominee and TV host and pundit. She is very influential with conservatives and hands out endorsements to canidates.
Republican congress and senate all vote together and are able to negotiate with strength in numbers. Bush before this did place in effect some very bad decissions that will haunt this country forever. Iraq, tax cuts during a time of war, deregulation on banking and wall street and the worst not taking action or even holding one meeting when briefed on possible airline attacks by Bin Laden.
Obama has done a great job getting this country back. Stock market is up, financial meltdown avoided, Tarp loans all repaid, an exit strategy in Iraq, tax cuts for the middle class, A health care program that does not allow insurance companies to drop you when you are sick, saved millions of jobs with the stimilus package. 3% GDP growth per qtr since crash.
Not a bad job provided with what he was given. Things will improve through 2011 and 2012.
Republicans want to end FDR era programs. I paid in way too much to SS and Medicare to see this happen. Tax cuts to rich are at a higher % then to the middle class and they want to continue it that way.
Just saying that Dems are better for supporting the lower-upper middle class while republicans do a better job supporting the lower upper to upper upper class. If you are upper class I totally see your point. If not, perhaps you should do some research on past history and how it effects the middle class and upper class when a republican is in the oval office.
