The candidates running on the democratic ticket for the various house and senate seats are Obamacrats? The governors and local legislators running as democrats are really Obamacrats?
Obama is not a democrat

They have the same financial interests, they aren’t interested in governing, they want power, and money, no matter who they have to blow to get it.

Just because they call themselves democratic doesn’t mean they’re are, Pelosi, Reid and Obama have been a disaster.

Why?

( each fan knows that their fave is perfect and the other guy is one rung below whale shit ) 2) If things don't go exactly the way I want I will hold my breath until I turn blue or I will go outside and eat worms. ( When I am feeling optimistic this is my preferred explanation for it ) 3) I like war. I want your kids to be involved in a war. I want america to spend the next hundred years at war. But I want an efficient war not a bollox like Bush gave us. ( This one fits a lot of dems unfortunately) 4) The boomer generation is marching off the stage, Obama's generation is marching on. The boomers do not want to go softly into that good retirement. ( this is my preferred explanation ) 5) They actually believe that Bush and McCain are getter for America than Obama would be. ( this was the big think of the turncoat dems in 1960 ... that Nixon would be better than that kennedy boy; 8 years later they voted for Nixon again and got their wishes) Possible explanations:

I don’t get this way of thinking, I wish someone could make a rational arguement as to why this makes sense… I don’t get it.

Obama is not a democrat? I want McCain to lose. I want him to lose so badly that he retires in disgrace. I expect any other person and most domesticated animals would do less damage to the country than McCain in the presidency would. I would like to see the dems run the table 50-0 this time out.

If you want McCain to win you better defeat Obama now... Between those two I (long time dem) will vote for McCain. He will do far less damage to our country.
