The Difference is Clear...
In a nutshell:
Planks from the Democrat Platform:
National Security: The Dems have proposed abandoning the war on terrorism, offering instead to 1) establish a national Cabinet-level Department of Peace; 2) quickly remove U.S. military forces in Iraq; and 3) repeal the Patriot Act which they characterize as an irrational reaction to the terrorist acts of 2001.
Immigration: Democrats want amnesty for illegal immigrants. They endorse allowing access to taxpayer-supported social services for illegal immigrants.
Environment: Democrats support subjecting all United States citizens to the Kyoto Protocol, despite the U.S. Senate’s rejection of the treaty 95 to 0. They support expanding the current regulations and scope of the state Growth Management Act.
Dems support government use of “eminent domain” for the development of private property as a source of government revenue.
Education: Democrats oppose charter schools and voucher programs, and want to eliminate military recruiting in public schools. They demand publicly funded education, preschool through university.
Health Care: Democrats support government-run health care through the “establishment of a comprehensive national health care plan” — i.e., a government bureaucracy can make better decisions concerning your health care than you can.
Economic Opportunity: Dems support the creation of a new state income tax with the call for a progressive tax system at both the federal and state level. Their platform does not include a single word on the rate and increase of government spending, but calls for a repeal of the Bush tax cuts which they have consistently opposed.

Resolutions passed at Central Committee meetings:
RESOLUTION - Maintaining Our Sovereignty
The following resolution was voted upon and unanimously passed at the June 15th, 2009 Central Committee meeting.
“We, the Central Committee of the Clallam County Republican Party of the state of Washington hereby, by majority vote, resolve that our state should retain and maintain our sovereignty within the National Electoral College system and as such, should not relinquish control of our electoral votes to other American states as would be mandated by the National Popular Vote Compact.
“We see the National Popular Vote movement to be a method to institute a constitutional amendment to eliminate the Electoral College without following the constitutionally approved means to effect such amendments. We strongly support the existing constitutional amendment process and all of its time-proven safeguards.
