Contrary to conventional wisdom, the poll also shows that a majority of Americans believe the Republican Party does not have a clear set of policies for the country.
Of course, the Democratic Party does have a clear plan:
1. American jobs that will stay in America, using energy independence to generate those jobs.
2. A strong national defense based on telling the truth to our citizens, our soldiers and our allies.
3. Honesty and integrity to be restored to government.
4. A health care system that works for everybody just like they have in 36 other countries.
5. A strong public education system so we can have optimism and opportunity back in America.http://www.democrats.org/a/2006/03/new_numbers.php http://www.realitybasednation.com.nyud.net:8090/images/bush-shock.jpg
