Lying and
cheating, same as any party.
But more obviously, Americans are just the textbook example of voting sheep. Not they probably are that stupid on average, they just have an incredibly toxic and partisan media environment that makes it really hard for your average person to get a handle on what's happening.
Still, it boggles my mind that the Democrats largely lost the last election due to the health-care reform, but now that it's turned out to be a success, they seem to be gaining nothing from what can only be described an epic success. (Considering how hard it is to get anything at all done in the Congress these days.)
