Local Democrats support Obama regime

Election ballots have arrived. Political advertisements flood the airwaves and the pages of our newspapers. The advertisements heavily weighted toward Democratic candidates because the Democratic Party is awash in money through the contributions of liberal billionaires, Hollywood elites, labor unions and far-left special interests.

Democrats are betting their massive bankroll that this blitz of last-minute political propaganda will cause voters to forget America’s loss of prestige and power in the world, the progressive degrading and destruction of our military, lies and deceptions regarding Obamacare, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs scandal, government spying on our communications, IRS targeting of conservative political groups and an open-borders policy that exposes us to third-world diseases and infiltration by terrorists.

National polls reflect overwhelming public dissatisfaction with the Obama regime’s actions. Nationally, the loss of Democrat-held House and Senate seats appears imminent. This makes it especially important for the Democrats to snare as many lower-tier public offices as possible this election. This foothold on the lower rungs of the political ladder could put Obama supporters in public positions to continue pushing the left-wing agenda of the party at the local and state levels. This is why so much expensive advertising is going into local elections for sheriff, county treasurer and state representative.

Notice that most Democratic candidates carefully avoid mentioning our part-time president who only seems to interrupt his golfing schedule to appear at Democrats’ fundraising events. Democrats hope to swamp their Republican opponents with last-minute advertising that will sweep their local and state candidates into office.

Anyone considering voting for a Democratic candidate for any office should keep in mind that all of these candidates have clung to their Democratic party affiliation throughout the past six years. They have been fully on board with Obama’s plan to fundamentally transform America. Not one among them has spoken out against the falsehoods, deceptions and overreaches of the Obama regime. Know that they will continue to support the party’s far-left agenda regardless of anything they say during their campaigns.

Electing Republican candidates is the only hope for change.
