I wonder if my Korean Mormon friends back in Korea support Romney more than Obama.

Boehner giving a speech right now that makes it seem clear that the next four years will be another round of obstruction

Obama should call his bluff, claim a mandate, say that Americans have rejected the Romney and Republican policies of tax cuts, and say that the House vote is only a result of abusive redistricting.


LOL @ people who still think Obama will call any Republican bluffs ever. Did anyone else read that Des Moines Register piece?

Yeah it was nonsense. It praised Obama for the stimulus yet supported Romney for being able to break the deadlock.

But it's not about ending gridlock if ending gridlock means doing the with Republican plan of drastic tax cuts and spending cuts, which will destroy the economy.

Obama should gridlock as much is necessary if the alternative s giving tax cuts to the rich which will massive increasingly debt and degrade long run economic growth, and spending cuts which will sink the recovery in the short run.

i believe we'll see a more energized and creative obama this time around. he will be a top 10 president when it's over

I wouldn't be so sure. I don't think Obama will get much done given the Republican opposition.

But I do hope you're right.

I usually hate using "rape" that way but if there was ever a man who deserved it.

If Romney wins I will be very unhappy but I won't be scared like I was in the 2000s. If Akin wins.. I will be very ashamed lol.

the thing I don't get, even in Canadian elections, is how the media can say with some certainty that a certain state is to a particular candidate, but then tell me that poll 15% reporting.

I don't get it.
Win. That's all that matters. Win. Nobody likes to lose.

I guess stereotypes are true...? Basically lines up with general preconceptions on voting.

Because of his ridiculous and mind-boggling comments not only on rape but also on basic reproductive biology.

In this vein, Ezra Klein just tweeted this:

"Early to draw political lessons, but if you're a GOP candidate and you've got a theory about rape and abortion, maybe keep it to yourself?"

It's people like him that make me think we need to make candidates for public office pass their state's high school exit exam before they get on the ballot.

Neither has the Rocky bloc of about the same number of votes. Maybe just Colorado with a lot of blue votes.

He said if a woman was actually raped and did not want to have sex, that her body would stop the pregnancy, and that therefore there is no such thing as children conceived out of rape and no reason to abort them.

It won't last, Obama will make that up when the west coast closes. I'm thinking 50/49 in Obama's favor when it's over.
