Democrats

[Zipporah Schumaker]

The only people that post [anti-republican] and death [to bush] definitions, while republicans are out making money to pay for their welfare checks, [food stamps], cell phone bills, rent, and internet service.

[Sommer]

An [idealistic], supposedly liberal political party that alienates all moderates with its stubbornness, hence a jackass as the mascot.
For example, many moderate liberals find themselves [alienated] by the extreme liberals [insistence] on political correctness and intolerance to religion.
As one party in the two-party system in America, they are half of the problem.
Antonym: Republican

[Marquetta]

[the lesser of two evils].

[Monty]

One of the two main [political parties] of the United States, or the members or supporters of that party.

In general, the democrats are considered more liberal/[left wing] and the republicans more conservative/right wing. Although this is correct [on average], individual differences in general are larger than party differences and thus individual democrats can easily end up on the right of individual republicans.
