Letter: Democrats are out of touch, losing influence

But now the socialists, I mean Democrats, spend months trying to scare everyone that if elected the Republicans will take away everything, including their birthdays, while giving everything that's left to the rich (no I'm not rich). Then when the socialists (oops, I mean Democrats again), take a shellacking at the polls, the crying begins. "Why don't people vote for us?" they ask.

Well, it's pretty simple. Until the socialists (darn, I know, it's Democrats) figure out how mainstream America thinks and feels, and come up with a message and vision that is in line with those ideas, they will continue to become less and less influential in our country. And that's a real shame.
