    What do you consider each party's defining positive AND negative characteristic?
    Be sincere. No name-calling.
    Also try not to flame others, everyone is entitled to their own opinions (and you're not gonna change them).

    (+'s/-'s)

    Dems- compassionate / weak (submissive)

    Repubs- cunning / self-righteous

    your turn :)

    Democrats: No ideas, no guts

    Republicans: Bad ideas, psychopathic religious fanatics, old rich white people stuck in a previous century

    Did I do this right?

    Democrats: Compassionate; Apologetic.
    Republicans: Passionate; Liars.

    This exercise is worse than "who can write the best bumper sticker" though. One word? What's next? A one-syllable word?

    Dei's single-issue obsession with homosexuality really speaks volumes about him as a person.

    lol, no, it's just something to kill time, have a laugh, and find some common ground. That's what the "positives" were intended for, but some wing-nuts lack humility when politics are involved.
