Default Why are Dems and Republicans so extremely bad now?

Is it because they will keep getting votes, even when they suck?

They don't suck at the game they are playing. You just don't like the game.

What do mean now?

The VAST majority of politicians have always been something best squished and buried back under the rock they crawled out from under.

In today's age of round-the-clock news and intense media scrutiny, it's difficult for anybody to stand up to the pressure. Journalists are not above going back in your history and scraping up the smallest of dirt. So I think decent people are largely deterred, and would rather go into other professions where they aren't under the microscope so much.

Its like if you had a business....as long as you suck less than the other guy, you win.

Anyway, Dems suck.....they're trying to bring GOP down with them in the sewer right now. Desperate for Limbaugh to have a gay tirade they can run ads against or create some GOP boogeyman to hide their incompetence. There's always Bush!
