6. Outsourcing and insourcing: the Republican's Achille's heel
Instead of wasting time nitpicking Bush's cabinet choices, the Democrat Party should be crucifying this administration for continuing to allow massive illegal "immigration" to flourish unabated, threatening our national security and the wage base of every single American worker who must now not only compete with wage slavery in China through outsourcing, but with illegal aliens hired by greedy, cheapskate employers for the jobs still left here.

The American worker, union or not, is under the greatest assault in decades from these two factors and no one in the Democrat Party, except Hillary Clinton has had the guts to tackle illegal immigration and its effect on the American worker which, along with rampant outsourcing IS the Achille's heel of the current Republican policy. These are bread and butter, food on the table issues everyone can understand that have enormous resonance with Democrats and Republicans alike.

Unfortunately, it seems too many Democrats have gone along with both these issues and done nothing to take advantage of their immense potential to sway very dissatisfied and angry voters tired of seeing their standards of living plummet due to the greed and corruption of elected leaders who put their political careers before the American people.
