Because seniors are more conservative than the rest of the population naturally. | ||

Then when the ARRA was being drafted Reps were complaining about not having enough of a say in the matter, which was their main argument at the time for voting against it. They also had a couple alternative (and smaller if I remember right) stimulus plans of their own. The Republican's stimulus? http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/ezra-klein/wp/2012/08/27/remembering-the-republicans-stimulus/ Their idea of stimulus were *permanent* tax cuts that were 400% larger than the Obama stimulus. Stimulus is meant to mostly be *temporary* spending increases, not permanent tax cuts. If you're view is that stimulus can be good, but then fiscal cliff is bad, then I agree that you're not a hypocrite. But Republicans generally oppose stimulus because it's to much spending that is added to the debt, despite thinking the fiscal cliff is disastrous. They don't argue that stimulus could be good, they just call stimulus a waste of money that will bad to the debt. | ||

I will not panic... I will not panic... + Show Spoiler + ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHGHGGGH FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!!!!!! Yep, the simple fact that things are so close, with Obama having a slight lead in Florida atm, doesn't bode well for Romney. Elsewhere it looks like Mourdock is going to be soundly defeated in the Indiana senate race. The gap has been steadily widening and we're at around 50% for Donnelly and 45% for Mourdock, approaching 25% of precincts reporting. He can come back, but its not looking good. | ||

Edit: Suddenly a panhandle appears! And Romney gets his own 85K lead. 51% in. | ||

Democrats now down to 1.5 and Republicans now out to 2.4. They were both neck and neck at 1.83 each just a few minutes ago. | ||

in 2008 obama won the county by 492k to 237k. it is a pretty significant shift for romney to gain basically more than 50k votes in that county alone. | ||
