Its going to come down to Ohio. If you play with some of the interactive maps online, there is a very scary possibility that they could each end up with 269 electoral votes, throwing the election to the House of Reps, which would elect Romney. If we have two elections in this century determined by something other than the actual vote, we're headed for some real trouble.

We've had almost 4 years to observe the President in office. We are well aware of the economic statistics; we are well aware of the President's policies. All of the foregoing are represented by Republicans as awful. We've had 2 debates; we've been exposed to a seemingly unlimited number of political ads. So, why isn't Romney leading by at least 10 points not only nationally, but in each state?
"Generosity. That was my first mistake." "Experience must be our only guide; reason may mislead us." "Instagram is Twitter for people who can't read."
RT @JohnJHarwood: Top GOP pollster on Gallup's 7-pt Romney lead nationally among likely voters: "There is nothing I am looking at that resembles that data."
Romney's sons are grown men, one of whom said he wanted to take a swipt at the presicent. The president's daughters are minors, and they chould be off limits to the press until they are grown...unless they make news.

Matt Drudge hinted that Gloria Allred has some dirt and is getting ready to unleash it. I think thats what he meant. Here's what he said.
From his Twitter
"Here she comes. Hearing Gloria Allred out there again, about to make a move. After all, it's her time of the campaign. Team O at the ready!!" Allred won't confirm or deny at this time. I have no idea what she could possibly be up to but i wouldn't put anything past her.
About a month ago, Hugh Hewitt said Allred had info of an affair or sexual harassment by Romney.

Wow, that would be something if it's true. I remember Allred involved herself in the race for governor out in california in 2010 when she went after Meg Whitman for hiring a "undocumented worker".
Allred is a joke. No one even takes her legal "interventions" seriously anymore. She has zero credibility. Her handling of the pigs in the Tiger Woods scandal outed for for what she is: A man hating shrew who'll do anything for a buck.

"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives." Winter is Coming Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
Tagg Romney, the son of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, has purchased electronic voting machines that will be used in the 2012 elections in Ohio, Texas, Oklahoma, Washington and Colorado.
"Late last month, Gerry Bello and Bob Fitrakis at FreePress.org broke the story of the Mitt Romney/Bain Capital investment team involved in H.I.G. Capital which, in July of 2011, completed a "strategic investment" to take over a fair share of the Austin-based e-voting machine company Hart Intercivic," according to independent journalist Brad Friedman.
But Friedman is not the only one to discover the connection between the Romney family, Bain Capital, and ownership of voting machines.
Quote:
"Through a closely held equity fund called Solamere, Mitt Romney and his wife, son and brother are major investors in an investment firm called H.I.G. Capital. H.I.G. in turn holds a majority share and three out of five board members in Hart Intercivic, a company that owns the notoriously faulty electronic voting machines that will count the ballots in swing state Ohio November 7. Hart machines will also be used elsewhere in the United States.
In other words, a candidate for the presidency of the United States, and his brother, wife and son, have a straight-line financial interest in the voting machines that could decide this fall's election. These machines cannot be monitored by the public. But they will help decide who "owns" the White House."

fuck both romney and obamma, they both suck! regardless of who wins, the economy will continue to go down the toilet, we will be at war with iran by february, and cival liberties will continue to shrink at an alarming rate. nothing ever changes with this corrupt 2 party system. while honest, hardworking americans continue to get screwed, both of these fools continue to play volleyball with meaningless issues such as gay rights, marriage and other stupid issues that the government has no business even getting involved with in the first place. the only candidate who makes any sense whatsoever is gary johnson, but not surprising he isn't welcome at any of these dog and pony shows that they try to pass off as "debates"! on the topic of debates, i think some of you here might find this video on the commission on presidential debates interesting...

It's either blue cheese with wings or go fuck yer mudda!
Can i ask why this site is so supportive of Obama?
No offence is meant by this question it's just reading through this site you're lucky to see a republican pop up on every 5th page. Is it related to alot of posters being from NorthEastern more democrat states?

Again no offence meant just curious.
Perhaps, and perhaps the few local GOPers just for the most part don't want to bother jumping into this war zone?

The thing that ticks me is the fear mongering and the lying that takes place from the GOP, sure Libs are guilty of that as well but def not as much. But 9 times out 10 you can bet the bank the conservatives say and do way more some wacky shit. Plus its kind of hard to defend policies that have no actual FACTUAL precedents to them that show they do what is claimed they do.
Being from the Northeast doesnt hurt as well. Personally, I dont vote on party lines or even for candidates. I vote on SPECIFIC policies that I have researched in detail (taxes,etc) that make sense. I have voted for candidates from both parties (not necessarily for President though).
