Well shit. My states going to become a battleground state soon. My local newspaper is reporting that romney is within 3 points of taking Minnesota. beacuse of how ads in Minnesota leak out to Wisconsin its going to be doubly worth for him to make a big ad buy for the final strech. Combined with gains in Wisconsin and Colorado romney might not even need ohio to win the election.
Doubt it, even though the days where Minnesota was a progressive beacon died with Paul Wellstone.

That said, I'm getting absolutely bombarded by Romney banner ads on the web and especially Michelle 'Jim Graves is a evil liar' Bachmann ads on the internet and on TV.


There are a few larger WI cities that are part of the Minneapolis media market. I know we hit them up for some of our ads.

True or False:

Voting FOR Obama mostly because he's black is is equally racist as voting AGAINST him mostly because he's black.

racism is recognized as a hostile attitude against a race, not a feeling of affinity per se, unless it is a choice between like and different race.

there is at least some difference here.

So voting for Romney because he's white isn't racist? It's only racist if it's anti-black?

Favoring your own race over the other solely on the basis of race seems racist to me.

I hear black people say "Obama better understands the black community and will address my concerns and needs more." and everyone is fine with that, if a white guy said "I think Romney better understands whites and will address my concerns and needs more" that guy would be labeled a racist.

The biggest impediment to the elimination of racism in America is the democratic party.


Oh yes. If only those democrats and bleeding heart liberals would step aside and realize that all wealthy white people succeed entirely on merit we would finally achieve the post-racial utopia that republicans and conservatives have been fighting for since the founding of America.

Quit talking out of your ass, please.

Jill Stein        - 89%
Barack Obama - 80%
Gary Johnson - 70%
Mitt Romney - 10%
California Voters - 59%
American Voters - 56%


Democrat    - 96%
Green - 93%
Libertarian - 43%
Republican - 2%


Environment (Stein) > Foreign Policy (Stein) > Immigration (Stein) > Economy (Stein) > Science (Obama) > Social (Obama) > Domestic Policy (Johnson) > Healthcare (Obama)

I had no idea I was such a hippy. Probably should've used less "most important". The 2% Republican is "No, but least important" on gun control I think.

In what way does this comment make even the tiniest bit of sense? I honestly don't understand the correlation you think you're making here.

Don't forget that our current attorney general is on record saying that black on white racism isn't actually racism (ie, there is no such thing as reverse discrimination/racism).

Awww, is someone afraid of Eric Holder? Let me guess, he's covering his own acts of racism brought about by the blame game of Fast and Furious? We shoulda known he's beet setting this whole thing up from the very beginning........

it's a myth that white liberals are voting for him because he's black and they feel guilty or something.

hell, it's a myth that black people are voting for him because he's black. sure having a black candidate increases black turnout, but it doesn't really move the percentages.
