Are you saying Democrats use "COMMON SENSE"?

I mean it is sensical to imagine that in every contest where a winner is declared those who are not declared winners have to be considered the opposite of...Let's say the looser.

I've yet to hear of the World Series Win/Win situation. Nor has the Super Bowl ever been known to hand out twin trophies and two sets of rings. In fact I can not think of a contest where a tie is even considered a viable option. That is why we have things like "extra innings" and "Overtime" Granted a tie does occure on occasion..but you rarely see anyone jumping for joy and such over the supposed win/win.

So if Democrats use common sense and the Republicans like to bill themselves as the alternative to the Democrats then prey tell..How does a Republican's thought process work? Or is that a trick question:)

Let me see if I can think of a win/win here. American jobs go over sea's to India (a win for the Indian economy not doubt) American buisness saves of labor and benefits not to mention those nasty regulation that try to keep workers safe and the environment clean (so there is another win right there) However I do see some loose here as well.

Americans loose good paying jobs and their health care to boot (that is a BIG loose right there) Now that companies can pollute in other nations and since we are all on the SAME PLANET that pollution will eventually make its way to our shores and our water and the like then I guess while we Americans don't get paid we also pretty much get dumped on via the air currents that sweep across the entire planet and drop others peoples junk on our children. (I guess this is a case of turn about being fare play....but still there is another lose right there as far as I'm concerned)

So we have a win/win/loose/loose...not a whole lot of progress if you ask me.
