David Plouffe: Tea Party Favorites O'Donnell, Angle, Paul Will Boost Democratic Turnout

He may be right about the number of democrats that will go to the polls in November,but they will not be voting democrat. They will be voting to thank Obama a crew for all they did for them as they lost their jobs, lost their homes, lost their cars, and had to relocate or move in with mother in law. They are mad because while all this was happening ,to the working class people that the democrats are suppose to represent, their elected officials chose to work on everything but the problem. Now they will go to the polls to thank them for everything that is the least they could do for all that hope and change they received!

Plouffe ran a campaign of promise them anything and do it from the center. Obama didn't deliver the rather high expectations or govern from the center. Obama is viewed as being a liar. No one will believe Plouffe this time around.

Sounds to me that Plouffe is trying to keep from being unemployed. This kind of obvious self interest with no regard for reality is WHY the dems are going to be kicked to the curb.....YOU DESERVE IT!!! THE DEMS SEEM TO THINK THE THE PUBLIC IS LIVING THE GOOD LIFE INSIDE THE BELTWAY. Message to the dems and Mr Ploffe .....review your resume. Maybe consider a change in career where your work makes a difference....plumbing .welding,mechanic.

Plouffe needs to be unemployed for a while so he can see how it effects you. It is nice to know nothing about working hard, then losing your job, house and everything else. But he knows how it will effect that people that have this problem. If you cannot uinderstand the problem you cannot fix it. Time to get the people who cannot understand the problem out of office.

Hey jspe7 - Although I'm not personally one of the rich, why SHOULD they be taxed more? Since when is hard work rewarded by paying higher taxes? SIMPLE MATH LESSON - 33% of $90,000.00 is $30,000? Further, 10% of $15,000. is $1500 This same $15,000 wage earner can easily receive another $50-100K in TAX FREE ENTITLEMENTS -the best health insurance you can get, food, reduced rates for apartments and utilities, college tuition, monthly stipends, child daycare, THE LIST goes on! It almost makes me want to quit my 55 hour a week job, have a couple more kids, divorce my husband (but still live together and share a semi-maritial status), and join the lines at the welfare office!

Why wouldn't the high unemployment rate be a HUGE factor in this election? That should be the biggest factor in selecting an elected official right now. I think perhaps that's some real wishful thinking on the Democrats behalf. Look, most people are not content just sitting back and living on welfare, food stamps, and subsidies! They would rather work, EARN their living, and seek their dreams. I also think it's REAL convenient timing for the Rangel and Water's ethics hearings! Let's get their seats "secured" then hear their side of the story! And as for their potential punishments - any of us would be fearful of jail and the government taking everything we have ever owned or worked for if we cheated the I.R.S. Innocent until proven guilty - I believe in that so let's try to prove them innocent in a speedy hearing. (TRY is a key word here!) As an "everyday" American citizen, I just shutter everytime I hear about preferential treatment given to Presidents, Senators, Legislators, Cabinet members, ANY government official, appointed elected, or otherwise! THEY WORK FOR US, THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE OF THE HIGHEST STANDARDS, their plates are supposed to be cleanest! If they can't be trusted to file their own income taxes correctly and with honesty, why the heck should we have to? How can WE, the people, trust them to make fair and HONEST decisions about things that effect our future, and that of our children, grandchildren, and the ages? They must think they're invisible and no one sees them. It's not just Waters and Rangel. It's ANY and EVERY public official!

Ok, so they might not be the brightest stars in the political firmament but where have the professorial elites taken us? There are many Americans that follow the Tea Party and we are in a representative form of government. Maybe we need some masturbatory oratory.

Plouffe sounds like the cheerleader at a football game when her team is losing 66-0 in the fourth quarter and she is shouting GO TEAM GO. Plouffe serioulsy wishes the Tea Party was on his side.

Just remember one thing, dems have had control of the Senate and Congress since 2007. After 2007 Bush and the country have just been along for the ride. I want my government to spend less, not more, with the exception of protecting our borders and supplying our military.

The lurch to the left we have seen from the Democrats has brought only debt, joblessness and oppression. I want a return to an America that creates rather than confiscates and destroys wealth.
