time for the unions to endorse third party candiates. Democrats are no better for the unions than the republicans.

@andyx1205 We've been a fascist nation since Reagan, his butt lickers wont admit to it. I dont see Obama getting re-elected either, he's just some dude who has charisma, he should be like a motivational speaker or something. I can actually see these right wing Maniacs electing Mitt Romney, god forbid. ut it should be a nice hard learned lesson for the democrats

@SmashYourStereo101 What disaster does not voting lead to? I'm not dissing you I'm just curious. I don't vote because I see noone worth voting for. I don't see how thats disastrous the powers that be will do what they want regardless of my vote.

You should be about labour cank, they are aussome and true progressives, as well as social democracts.

[KangaKucha]

@KangaKucha labour unions arent gonna just come and hold the piss buucket for the democracts.

[KangaKucha]

@neltod

@metalreign81

strategy

[metalreign81]

They could of made piece-meal reforms on health care and immigration, legalized marijuana/regulated and taxed/ --decriminilize prostitution/regulate and tax again and potentially save billions in non-enforcement and alleviation of our crowded prison system along with allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire early --which sunk us into this fucking hole in the first place and been sitting good with most moderates and lefties---instead they went after the health care and now are gonna lose it all!

[metalreign81]

The democrats fucked up big time with the health care overhaul------january of 2009---their economic stradegy should of included the stimilus plan, finanicial regulation, and the largest jobs bill in history----people were much more worried about employment and jobs than they were health care, not that health care isn't a concern, but the health care debate sucked all the life out of their momentum, if they would of pursued a massive jobs bill and lowered unemployment they would be set for 2010

[bonfirejovi]

unions are the scum of the earth and single handedly made Britain a 3rd world country in the 70s

[annakfan]

@DrQuijano Agree they need to create their own Labour Party the same way the Unions in Europe are affiliated with Labour Parties.
