    I'm hoping for a Green Party 5%. Not a Libertarian one. But you're right. This might be the year for Libertarians.

    The 2016 campaign will begin next Monday. Thank Jimmy carter for the innovation in 1973 of the never-ending presidential campaign.

    Democrats believe everyone hates Romney as much as they do. Republicans think everyone hates Obama as much as they do. Independents are partial to Romney because Obama had a shot and blew it but the Republican Romney supporters are a turnoff and they think: do I really want this?

    It will be a squeaker.

    I like to take that Continental Riot House route when I want to debase myself. Go hard or go home, right?

    I feel your pain sir...

    November 5, 2012

    President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney are within one percentage point of each other in Gallup's final pre-election survey of likely voters, with Romney holding 49% of the vote and Obama 48%.

    And

    The final Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll of Election 2012 shows Mitt Romney attracting support from 49% of voters nationwide, while President Obama earns the vote from 48%. Two percent (2%) prefer some other candidate. See daily tracking history.

    I.e. minority and special interest groups now out number what used to be the majority and those who were part of the 'same page Americans' in the 50's & 60's.....Btw, I also marched for Civil Rights in the 60's, as well as served the country voluntarily during the Viet Nam era...so your 'lol' just bounces off of me with respect to what I have done to advance this country...you are but an anonymous hit-and-run poster in vain cyberspace....keeping on hiding ...

    If Obama fools a majority of America AGAIN, and the Senate stays Democrat with a Republican House, it's 4 more years of grid lock with Obama pursuing his own ideological agenda of EO's...this country WILL NOT be better off than a Romney win....read em & weep, from past experiences and predictive ideological differences, it will come to pass...

    Obama has done more to advance 'racism' than Jackson or Sharpton combined the past 4 yrs. Besides the Beer Summit pre-involvement w/o knowing the facts, and his comments on the Trevon shooting, etc. but mostly because of his silence (fully intentional but to bee seen as above the fray!) to make comments against racism in general, he has made this country more race controversial than I've seen in many years since Rodney King & the L.A. lootings, & the O.J. shooting of 2 white ppl..

    This election has been more annoying than the last one, because of the ads that pop up everywhere every 10 seconds. It gets worse now that my Twitter feed has most of my friends trying to be all big in politics and even going so far as to take pics of their ballots when they voted.

    Hang on, you said in another thread you were part of the 1%...

    Right, because the president hasn't explicitly spoken up against racism, he's done more to advance it than anyone else. And race is more controversial not because the white nationalists are coming out of the woodwork, but because he expressed condolences with Trayvon Martin's family. Huh.

    *drinks*

    I'm guessing you watch TV... Which is a definite problem. :p

    No way of avoiding commercials there.

    He has 'surrogates' to do his dirty work and keep him as looking 'above the fray.'

    Yep, but I grew up extremely poor and have a taste for the good stuff. :)

    Besides, I'm at the low end of 1% to the point of hanging out the back. Some years I'm a 5% but crime is up, I have no life, so I can put in a 55-60 hour work week if I buy Red Bull. Half my life is spent in drinking coffee, surfing waiting to be called.

    It's a job.
