''Dems Must Woo White Men To Win''

OMG....say it ain''t so!? Can''t wait to see how they''re gonna do that! Here''s a suggestion: Since white men pay most of the taxes in this country, how about you quit trying to raise our taxes?

That would be a GOOD start!!! And DON''T LIE!!!!

The only thing that is going to determine this election is Iraq. It is the number 1 hot issue hands down.

It determined the outcome in 2006 when the reps LOST EVERY SINGLE SEAT and it will determine the 2008 elections as well.

There are still 13 months left to go and Iraq is going to keep going down, down, down and drag the rep party with it. Surge or no surge Iraq is a boiling cauldron. Without political reconciliation it will boil over again and again and again.

whites, blacks, hispanics men and women, in short all Americans, are united on this single issue. You don''t get poll results that say 72% of all Americans asked say the US is on the wrong road, without consensus.

That is the feeling is what is going to determine who wins next year.

If we can just lock up the bicycling Norweigans and the
church-going Hispanics we won''t need the white males.

I guess the soccer moms have been relegated to the trashpile along with the Christian Coalition, the unions, The NRA, feminists,etc.

How about appealing to all of us as Americans.

I guess those inside the beltway types do so much pandering to special intererests in Washington that they don''t know how else to relate to the masses.

With someone like Dr. Ron Paul running for president, the Democrats don''t stand a chance!

As a white male myself who interacts with other white males, I find it hard to disassociate the thread of intolerance that so often reveals itself in the discourse from that lean to the right. The Dems must attract those white males who are legitimately concerned about the health and wellbeing of the nation, and leave those who merely want to maintain their competitive (white, male) advantage to the GOP.

White men who have followed the huge mistakes of the republicans would never vote for republicans ever again.
"If your not pissedoff, you have not been paying attention!!!!!!!!"
The canidian dollar is worth more than Americas dollar.
We have lost our rights.
The administration is spying on America.
The administration has lied so many times we have lost count.
Bushes buddies make all the money with no bid contracts.
They have lost all credability to the average white man paying attention.
However I think Obama is the better candidate for America. Now he just needs to explain why!

"Sen. Pete Domenici is expected to announce Thursday that he will not seek re-election"

Another rep dinosauer bites the dust! That is 4 now who will not run. Anyone want to guess the odds on the oldest dino of them all Ted Stevens giving up the race??

Considering he is under investigation for having charged the state for home improvements (a slam dunk!) and other improper stuff and will be 85 next year, I bet he will bow out.

I can hear the dem opponent now "That Bridge to Nowhere money waster with our national debt approaching trillions..."

You get the drift, I''m sure.

Blocking the black vote and disallowing other votes makes a great fix for a presidential election.
Of course no one in America would be so helll bent on being that evil.

"...Dems merely need to woo white STUPID men..."

With 80,000,000 gun owners in America, it would be wise for the democrats not to have so many rabid anti-gun extremists running for president.

They want a message that resonates with white male voters?? How about starting with outsourcing, this issue has cost many white male voters their jobs. Next, they can talk about guest worker programs in an economy that created -4000 jobs last month.

Actually, Dems merely need to woo white STUPID men. The intelligent ones are already on their side, but of course, we have always been a minority.

D@mn, CBS. Must be a slow news day. Anybody can see this. Many people not just white males(let''s bring race back in to politics)but all races are becoming disinfrancised with the democrats, also with the repubs. It seems like the modern democrat party is so turned to the liberal left, just like the repubs are so religious right. These are both extremes and have lost the support of alot of their core voters. What we need is a moderate party. One made of ex-rep/dem that are more middle of the road, more in tune with the tax-paying legal voting citizenry of the US. More in-line with what everyday Americans want.
