President Obama wants to meet with the Republicans to put together a compromise government health bill where everybody walks away from the table with something.

You are completely ingoning the fact that Obama and these democrats were elected and doing the things they promised to do. You don't mention that all seem to agree that reform is needed. Those in power tend to set policy. The majority put them there. They are doing their job. Keep up the good work.

Republicans or Democrats; what’s the real difference? Either of them is going to try and arrange their words in an attempt to tell you what you want to here. When it comes right down to it, they are people serving leadership roles in it for themselves. As long as you want the same return, their efforts pay you rewards. We as people see them only from a party point of view. We all assume the individual serving will adhere to the basic party principals but, our elected have become masters of camouflage and even remain well hidden behind those principals while they carry out their hidden agenda. We need to turn our heads from the party and take a good look and elect the right individual.

nothing will ever change for the better until we stop looking a politics as a sporting even. We each have our team and we route for only them to win. Until americans get out of that sophomoric attitude nothing will change in washington.

You say it is up to republicans to save us? Did you see the report on their fund-raising? The low-end contributors must be scared and the high-end folks like to have their egos stroked. All are reactionary. In other words, they think you're stupid. We have a better chance of Mexico invading and saving us.

If we were honest we would admit neither the Democrats nor the Republicans have ever worked for the middle class. Look where we are at now. Neither party is willing to re-regulate the financial system. We are operating under the very same rules that allowed the system to fail.

We can hate Obama for not undoing in a year what 40 years of other presidents did, but if we were honest we would equally hate and equally blame every president from Jimmy Carter forward for selling us out.

With the election, midterm, in the fall, I have alot of feelings going into the election.
First I feel I cannot vote for a person or persons that have sided with a political party. My reasoning is they do not belong to themselves, but to others.
Second I feel persons without these chains can give us better representation.
Third I am speaking of the independent candidate, the reason being, the Democrats belong to someone, the Republicans belong to someone, the Libertarians belong to someone. The Independent candidate belongs to the voters. The others belong to someone in a smoke filled room who could care less about the rest of us, but what money they can make from it.

Maybe...

But why not try listening to each candidate and make an intelligent decision before simply invoking some 'legalistic' thought process that throws the baby out with the bathwater.

I know at least one candidate running for Governor who, while attached to a party, is clearly running a grass roots campaign. He has zero support from the Insiders who by the way, got America into the mess she is in today.
