I can't say I've agreed with you on very much, but you are a credit to a robust if not partisan discussion.

As to your predictions, I think you're a + Show Spoiler +

Making conclusions based off of anecdotal stories is usually annoying and ends up inconclusive anyway.

I have to give you credit to putting yourself out there with that prediction. Holy smokes. Either Romney's popularity has reached Bieber-levels or most of America thinks Obama is the spawn of Satan.

the fuck

hahahahaha are you trolling? If this happens it's probably an indication of rampant election fraud on the part of the Republican party.

e: btw California prop 40 was the redistricting proposition. The one that had no opposition because the Republicans went...oh wait it's better if we oppose this in 2014

The polls would have to be understating Romney support by 5-10 points for this to come true. I don't know what would lead you to this conclusion, but for your sake, I hope you have only have pride and not money riding on this one ^^

As for the fiscal cliff, is Signet the only person in this thread who thinks hitting the fiscal cliff is a good idea? Supposing that he is a Republican or at least Republican leaning, then at least he's not a hypocrite on this issue.

Compare this to Romney or other Republicans who believe the fiscal cliff will wreck the economy, while at the same time believing that stimulus is bad and that deficits are bad. Such a belief is self-contradictory and completely hypocritical.


I don't think hitting the cliff is a good idea. I think deficit hawks (which I'm not) should be saddened that neither party is willing to actually go through with it.

Yes, I agree. I've asked that question probably ten times in this thread and no one has been able to answer.

No Republican here is able to explain their hypocrisy on the fiscal cliff. That's one reason why people shouldn't vote for Romney.

Wanting to cut the deficit doesn't necessarily supersede all other considerations.

For example if you want to cut your own household budget because you are racking up too much debt you wouldn't want to stop heating your house in the winter. That's not hypocritical - that's smart.

Similarly, no-one is happy with the fiscal cliff - both from the standpoint of its composition and its timetable. So the only way someone is being hypocritical is if they have taken the stance of opposing the deficit "by any means necessary" - a stance that is taken by a very minority of people.

Everyone wants to cut the deficit eventually.

It make sense that some people think that massively reducing the deficit quickly is bad, that we should do it slowly, and that not all cuts are good, which is what you're basically saying. But the logic leading that person to believe that massively cutting the deficit in the short term is bad for the economy, also implies that increasing the deficit in the short term is good for the economy.

Therefore, the hypocritical Republican position I'm talking about is believing:
1) Hitting the fiscal cliff is bad because it massively reduces the deficit through spending and tax cuts while the economy is still in a recession.
2) A large increase to the deficit by increasing spending in a recession will stimulate the economy.

Simultaneously holding both beliefs makes no sense to me.

I can't speak for all Republicans but most aren't anti-stimulus so much anti-Obama's stimulus. The ARRA was the Democrat's legislation and Republican's didn't like its composition and so they opposed it. Since then the message has devolved a bit from criticism over a specific stimulus to criticism of stimulus. But I think that's more of a dumbing down of the rhetoric than a real change in policy.

Then why have I've never seen a Republican (excluding him) say that stimulus is good, but not Obama's stimulus? Where's all the Republicans saying they want stimulus, just not Obama's stimulus?

Most likely it will be 303-235 Obama or 332-206 Obama unless Ohio flips.

Oregon and Minnesota aren't enough?

It is not impossible, but the polls have to have been far more biased than what one would reasonably expect. I guess it is unskewed.com stuff.

Pretty low-level stuff, but more or less confirmed that this poll worker was altering incomplete ballots for a straight Republican ticket:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/11/06/deanna-swenson-oregon-election-worker_n_2082882.html?utm_hp_ref=politics

It was in Oregon so I doubt it would have made a huge difference, but even one tampered ballots is one too many.
