Why are Dems' Most Ardent Supporters Single Moms, Moms who Want Free Daycare, etc.?

Question

Is it safe to assume that Palin won't appeal to those types of Dems?

Answer 1

Because they care about human beings. It's called helping people, it's different to shouting out idealogical statements to justify ignoring suffering. Maybe you could try it?

A single mother struggles a lot. She works a lot harder than you ever have done or ever will, but work doesn't always get fair amounts of pay, so they need help.

Not everyone had the good fortune to be born middle class. Have some compassion for your fellow man.

Answer 2

Dems love hand outs!  The rest of us get to pay for the 'down trodden'.  

Answer 3

I'm not an authority on the subject but the first thing that popped into my mind when I read your question was that those same single moms that you refer to are more likely to be democrats than they are republicans. The typical democrat is lacking in education, through no fault of their own in most cases, and is easily swayed by the democrat party with false promises and freebies like daycare and welfare programs. The democrat party has, and always will lead these poor people around by their noses instead of doing something meaningful to better their lives. The same thing applies to minority groups in that the democrats promise new freebie programs to alleviate their their suffering rather than doing something substantial to guarantee a better life through education and self respect through hard work.

When was the last time that you heard a democrat politician propose a program specifically designed to help the poor in getting a higher education, or even a program that would allow the single mother to get a high school diploma? What I have personally seen is a party that caters to the poor during election years and than forgets them for the next four years.

The thing that brakes my heart the most is not the fact that there have always been, and always will be single moms and poor people in need of help, but rather the fact that there is currently a political party, the democrats, that will continue to use and abuse these poor people as a means to attain their own political goals while giving nothing substantial back in return.

As for your question about Governor Palin I can only say this...She will not be as likely to dole out freebies, but she will offer the opportunities that will allow the needy to better themselves if they choose to.

Answer 4

The most important thing to remember is that a goverment strong enough to give its citizens everything is strong enough to take everything away also.

Answer 5

People love free stuff and the Dems always promise free stuff. The difference is that many of us recognize that a politician never keeps his or her promise. The supporters of the Dems have a very short memory and they actually believe what Obama says. Let's just hope that their memories are so bad that they forget election day.

Answer 6

That is a huge, trillion-dollar boondoggle that needs much attention.

Answer 7

Yes...and selish people, low-lifes, perverts and illegals of every variety - that's their voting base.

Answer 8

Do you have any idea the cost of daycare? A single Mom out there doing her best for her child/children should have help. I don't see how you could possibly whine about this. I bet your anti-choice too.  

Answer 9

What's amazing is that there are plenty of "Republican" mothers who would take advantage of free daycare.

I'm sure that there are plenty of "Multi-millionaires" who would take advantage of free daycare as well.

Answer 10

Is it fair to say, Cons wives are mother's of seven, stay at home, subservient etc.  

Answer 11

The same reason that the republicans most ardent supporters are oil companies, war profiteers and big businesses that don't want to pay their fair share in taxes...people know which side their bread is buttered on.

Answer 12

Politicians only care about votes.

The right grabs the rich people.

The left grabs the poor.  

Answer 13

i lay around all day on my couch eating potato chips, smoking pot, and playing playstation games. I may be most ardent dem supporter

Answer 14

because they will get free daycare. the sign of a civilised government!

a civilised gornment is not one which destroys all land around them digging for oil, invades countries for oil, takes money from the poor and gives to the rich........

democrats, will look after the majority. not the minority.

Answer 15

They know the liberal vote will support everyone that can't keep their legs shut.

Answer 16

The sheep are near !

Have a Right-Wing Day !

Answer 17

That's not all that we are. I'm a thirteen year old girl and I am a dem for life and I already know that.

Maybe becuase voting for a dem means hope for them. They might actually get the help they need.

Answer 18

The same reason that the Republicans biggest supporters are CEOs and oil tycoons who want bigger and bigger handouts,  mineral leases, and contracts which the government and American people lose on.

Answer 19

This is a great question. I believe the reason is that the Democrats say they are for the "Struggling Person" so the Struggling Person goes for them. The Struggling Person sees the Dems as an easy way to fix his/her problems, never realizing that by putting your problems off onto someone else it just creates more problems. I am neither Democrat or Republican. I think they are both rediculous but the Repubs seem to be the lesser of the two evils.
