12. I could never wrap my head around that. Cops voting...Republican?? Here in SoCal
it's the same thing! The majority vote Republican. It's as if they believe their union and their salaries are above those of other union workers who are fighting for fair salaries and job security.

If anything, the fire dept., the police dept., the military...all civil servants with the best pay, pensions, fringe benefits, and deals, should vote Democratic. After Reagan, it's been clear to everyone and anyone who cared to pay attention, that the repukes have ONE goal only: to serve their corporate masters and to force the rest of us into servitude.

I just don't get it. But now they see the light? They see Republicans for what they really are since they're feeling the heat of corporatism breathing down their necks, now their benefits are under threat, and NOW they get pissed??

Un-freaking-believable.
