How anyone can support this nasty party who has nothing but lowdown dirty politics and playing games with YOUR LIVES all for winning POWER over you is beyond me.

Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) said the larger turnout for Republican candidates during the primary season won't count in the general election when you consider proportionality and the "train wreck" element.
Dem turnout numbers are down from when Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama faced off in the 2008 primary, but Wasserman Schultz insisted this isn't a matter of dampened enthusiasm.
"First of all, you have one of our candidates that, you know, came within 10,000 votes in Mississippi in terms of turnout. And overall, you know, the Republicans with four candidates had 400,000 people. You had 200,000 people turn out, this is in Mississippi and, you know, for our candidates. So, really there's a proportional argument to make," she told CNN this morning.
"But there is a intense, chaotic, reality TV show playing out on the Republican side. So, you know, it's kind of like a train wreck. You know you shouldn't watch, but you can't help yourself. And so, there is a certain element to that," she added.
"At the end of the day, when we have a nominee on both sides of the aisle, I'm very confident we're going to have a united party. Our candidates have been, you know, not only civil, but complimentary of one another and the Republican field has been hurling insults and tomatoes and talking about spray tans and the size of hands and their manhood."
