Democratic politicians often get far too much criticism from Democratic voters. Compared to republicans, most of them work above and beyond, yet they get little credit for all they do. Nothing is ever good enough according to the MSM and voters.

The same standards are rarely applied to republican politicians who have quite an open history of corruption, deceit, and self-dealing. I am amazed that so many Democrats stay in politics - it is truly a thankless job.
