Has anyone thought about getting the unemployed to vote?
It seems like they should be the most motivated to keep the GOP from getting back in power, they'd have the time to show up to vote, and there's a lot of them out there.
I don't think your head is screwed on straight.

1. Why would unemployed people vote status quo?
Doesn't make sense.

12. How ridiculous. The repubs in power is not status quo
This gets a little stupid as November gets closer.
They keep misunderstanding each other, because they forget who's in power right now.

3. Unemployment actually tends to make people get pissed off and lash out at all incumbents.
I don't think mobilizing massive numbers of jobless would be a net benefit to the Democratic party at this point, sadly.

4. They're angry at both parties...
99er NOVO member Mignon Veasley-Fields renders Ed Schultz speechless
Followed by a story where some woman tells Big Ed that the dems aren't so hawt, or some such.

6. Yes, it took me TWO AND A HALF hours to register to vote last time.. when it takes 2 minutes for the
rest of you.
Then what I get in return for my effort is to have my meager benefits cut by the party I voted for.

8. The time to think of that was a long time ago.
You see, now you want THEM to benefit YOU.
You should have thought of that a long time ago, and been fighting for those of us whose votes you now want.
Is Bobo forsaking the Democrat party?

Bobo:
"Woe is me, woe is me! Y'all are 'sposed to wallow in my plight!" For cripes sake!
Good grief! She's either the smartest mole at the DUmp, or the stupidest moron I've ever had the dismay of coming in contact with!
You idiots find it amazing that a heckuvalot of Americans would rather actually work for a frikkin' livin', rather than take half pay for not!
I've been on un-employment, never paid the bills, DUmbasses!
**** you "Bobo the Clown", get a frikkin' job!

Of course they're the most "motivated to keep the GOP from getting back in to power". The dems are far more likely to keep conditions in a manner that allows and even ensures that they will remain unemployed.

For the Dems?
"During the last 2 years when you lost your jobs, we were in power. Help us stay in power and, by extention, we'll help you stay unemployed."
The yurbud primitive is not just stupid in appearance.

You're kidding me, right ?
The last thing any Democrats want is recognition that their team absolutely SWORE that Obama created plans and programs would cap unemployment at 8%, and that by now things would be back to normal.

They didn't extend unemployment for two frikkin' years off our taxes for nuttin'!!!!

I don't even think Bobo the Hobo is a real person but the externalization of PC white liberal guilt. She's like this ghost that hovers over the DUmmies and tries to ensure they are not enjoying themselves.

13. They already have the day off.
Are the bars still closed on election day?
Didja see how many millionaires are unemployed? Could be dicey?
I'm interpreting the first two sentences as pure diss and snark at the unemployed. The last two sentences I cannot understand no matter how many times I read them. God, they're dumb.

They're talking about the unemployed, not the HOMELESS, DUmbass! :hammer:

I wonder why the DUmmies have the assumption than the unemployed wouldn't vote?

Maybe because if they're unemployed, they think they are as lazy as they are!
You know, typical DUmmie logic! They want to sit on their ass and collect our money!

I'm going to have some fun with this one!! :lmao:

Has anyone thought about getting the unemployed to vote? Ummmm,.... :mental:
It seems like they should be the most motivated to keep the GOP from getting back in power, they'd have the time to show up to vote, and there's a lot of them out there. OK. "Bud" man. First off, do you know why we have such a high unemployment rate!!? Have you seen what's running the Country, the people occupying the White House?! They further accelerated the unemployment picture. And, why would anyone vote against the GOP?!? They are for jobs and repealing the HELLCARE that the one occupying the White House signed into law, which created more unemployment and uncertainty?!?

Not to mention the taxes goin' up in 2011! No manufacturer is going to invest into expanding if doing so will cost them money!!!!
DemoncRats are idiots when it comes to putting our economy into growth!

Yes sir. You are correct. Those are just a couple of the problems. :banghead:

Yes DUmbshit. The Dhimmi'Rats regularly round up Bobo's buddies and bus 'em all around town, having 'em vote a Dhimmi'Rat ticket early - and often - and for each ballot, the bum gets a little money, a bottle of MD 20/20 or whatever they can buy the winos with.
What??? You thought maybe that the Dhimmi'Rats waited until you were dead to employ the nameless, faceless masses at the ballot boxes?! :thatsright: :loser:
