| It's easy to be a Democrat politician these days (Posted on 1/2/13 at 3:57 pm)
Just say yes to everything. Whatever you want, they have a check for it. People don't care anymore if the money is actually there. Just want that check. No need to stress. Just say yes.
Unfortunately it looks like Republicans are figuring that out too. Might as well say whatever you want, have at it. It's yours.....all of it and everything that comes with it.

The modern democratic party is unlike anything we've ever seen before. Their voters vote for them with economic gifts in mind, not with ideological leanings in mind.
Maybe 10% of democrats vote democratic due to ideology.

Actually, I am starting to wonder what took so long for this to occur.

Hispanics
Blacks were always a big Democrat block, but not big enough to consistently defeat Republicans in elections.
Now that latinos have become large democrat block largely on the back of being moochers and "gimme" types, and have teamed up with blacks, it is a force that can not be defeated.
