Beleaguered Democrats
As a lifelong Democrat and longtime union member, who has never voted Republican, I must say I can no longer vote Democratic because of the party’s liberal giveaway policies and softness on crime.
Is the Democratic Party so bankrupt that Jerry Brown, a.k.a. Gov. Moonbeam, is considered a viable candidate (Part A, Sept. 4)? The same Jerry Brown who never enforced the death penalty that the voters overwhelmingly supported.
Come on, Democrats, give us some good candidates and less giveaways and mollycoddling of criminals so people like myself won’t continue to leave the party of the little guy to join the party of the privileged.
