Do the democrats not realize the reason people voted repub is because the dems have not kept their promises?

The reason republicans won elections yesterday is because the democrats have done NOTHING since they got in office. Very little for the economy, NOTHING SO FAR for healthcare. when are the dems ever going to learn? Is that even possible?

Update:

Josh when is this supposed health care bill coming? Last i heard, Harry Reid said now it is going to be next year before they vote on anything. NOTHING is going to happen as long as the insurance companies have the politicians hostage through their wallets.

    Last I checked, people weren't voting Republican: two landslides for Democrats, and one split election, 2 governorship for the GOP and 2 house seats for the Dems.

    The economy is now back to growth, a huge achievement given the magnitude of the mess. And healthcare is on its way to passage -- presidents have been trying to pass health care legislation for 50 years. I'd say Obama has lots of achievements, and more to come, though I do wish the stimulus package had been larger, per the recommendations of eminent economists.

    nicely stated. there's a lot funds contained in the equipment - funds donated to campaigns by technique of very wealthy human beings, and a lot funds popping out of the authorities to organizations run by technique of the marketing campaign donators - the equipment can no longer help yet be snarled. i'm no longer effective that a nil.33 celebration would artwork, besides the undeniable fact that. international locations which have distinctive activities have parliments, no longer a congress and a senate like the U. S. does. issues are performed by technique of a majority vote contained in the U. S., no longer by technique of a plurality (whichever section has the most votes) as in a parliment. What continually finally ends up taking position is that 0.33 celebration applicants finally end up stealing adequate electorate faraway from one or the different significant activities to swing the election any incorrect way. i imagine the certainly thanks to shop the equipment is for the american human beings to get off their lazy butts, take an pastime in what's taking position, and insist good authorities. don't be swayed by technique of fancy television commercials that the tremendous funds offered, yet truly imagine about the topics and insist immediately solutions. that is accessible, besides the undeniable fact that the everybody is going to ought to artwork at it, and truly favor it to take position.

    Yes I will concede that jobs is part of the problem but lets not forget that you have a very very large uneducated Republican base in Virginia and in New York you had the Republicans lose a seat that they have held since 1872. Uneducated base, loss of a GOP seat held since 1872. I think the Republicans are in trouble.

    We are talking about serious issues here. You don't act hastily when trying to put together a big bill like health care reform. There are many involved in the process, many proposals.

    And how do you expect the economy to turn around overnight. It is slowly improving, but jobs won't appear overnight.

    Last I heard, Democrats were the majority in the Senate, The House of Representatives and a Democrat sat in the white house.

    Will we ever learn?
