The best way to judge a party is by their records in the states they have control of.

Add in their president's historical record, and you have a complete, total picture of not what they say they will do, but what they actually do. With that in mind, you will find the reason why you are totally insane voting for the right wing. They are a disaster, especially for any working class American. The only real reason the right exist is to transfer all the new wealth of this country to the golden few at the top. All the rest is for votes.
 
Last time the Democrats got control in Arizona was with Janet "Nappy" Napolitano. She spent the entirety of the state's "Rainy day fund" on all-day kindergarten. It also destroyed Arizona's state government systems in place like parks. This was because a major recession hit right after she did that (not her fault). Without the money in the rainy day fund, the state couldn't pay all its bills with the lower tax take that resulted. All state parks closed, all-day kindergarten ended, and Napolitano cast about for other sources of income.
So, she stuck speed cameras on state highways (in the name of "safety"). These became almost instantly hated. Many judges refused to hear tickets and just tossed them out. Redflex, the company running the program was found rife with corruption. This bullshit ended with her term in office.
She also saw the longest prison hostage situation in Arizona's history, one where a female prison staffer was held hostage and repeatedly raped. She refused to make a decision on this that could have ended it beyond negotiation.
She also vetoed more bills than any Arizona governor in history (Republican legislature). So much for cooperation and working together.
Basically, Napolitano was the worst Arizona governor we've had in recent history, by far.

She served one term, and knew she wasn't getting reelected. Obama made her Secretary of Homeland Security and she fucked that up too.
 
Wow. What a completely pinhole-focused response to a generality query. Just about everything you said about Arizona is both an obvious exaggeration of the facts and at the same time a completely one-sided statement. Anybody with any intelligence now knows the Republican-led legislature in Arizona is both insane and unqualified. The democrats didn't get her elected, the insanity that was the republican party in the state, along with the failure to find a viable candidate that wasn't already indicted did.
 
Just looking at Chicago, Detroit and San Francisco is enough to prove this thread is just another example of the left trying to repeat something often enough to get folks to believe it despite reality. They go into fantasyland and say nonsense that isn't true, demonstrably so, and then pat each other on the back for their "wisdom", repeat ad nauseum. It's the standard recipe for leftist threads on this site.
