Why are Dems Having a Hard Time Getting Blue Collar Votes Is it their Endless Support of Illegal Immigration?

Question

They should have this vote locked up. But, they don't.

Is it because they are against drilling for oil ?

Answer 1

Whenever a Dem is in power, we always have to pay more taxes.  That doesn't make life any easier for a blue collar worker trying to put two kids through college.  (Or for those kids in college!)

Answer 2

They aren't.

And the drilling oil issue is over....

It wouldn't help us for 5 years atleast and the price at the pump would reduce 20 cents at the most.

How is that helping our future at all?

Answer 3

True, my parents the first time in there lives voted for Republicans and third party candidates last election. My father voted for independents before though

But this election they are voting for McCain. Not me though I'm voting for Bob Barr

Answer 4

First off the party that says they are for the union, have down nothing during the last 8 years about the union busting that was going on. The working people are tired of having taxes taking from them especially when the gas prices have all ready hurt the wallets.  

Answer 5

No, the democrats have a 30 year history of raising taxes on the blue coller worker to pay for welfare and such the blue coller worker can't receive.  

Answer 6

Endless support?  I haven't seen very much conversation about illegal immigration this election cycle.  

More neocon spam...

Answer 7

Because their party no longer reflects the views and vision of blue collar America.  The Democratic party is a prisoner of the fringe special interest groups.
