    Election coming down to last few days

    I don't think we will know strongly either way until after the votes start coming in on Tuesday and even then it will probably take a while. The battleground states will make or break whoever wins and a lot of them are still up for grabs. A lot of money and time are being spent in states like...

    Effect of Sandy on election

    How do you think Sandy will affect the election if at all? It is quite a hard question especially so close to Sandy happening, but it is certainly important. I really don't know what to think at this point one way or another.

    vote for none of the above

    I regret my state does not follow Nevada’s example. “None” appears along with all other candidates’ names on the ballots. By voting for "None", the voters’ are implying a willingness to vote for future candidates who are more amiable to their, (the voters’) political positions. This year’s lot...

    A Romney nomination almost assures Obama’s election.

    A Romney nomination almost assures Obama’s election. Many if not most Republicans were all opposed to Massachusetts Romneycare but then Governor Romney, Republicans and Democrats passed and enacted it. Romney was the liberal governor of a liberal state. Massachusetts voters will not repeal...

    To avoid election expenditure Dems/Repugs should alternate

    To avoid wastage of money in election campaign, why not Dems/Repugs alternate every 4 years. They will both screw up anyway. Why have this drama every 4 years and spend so much money on it. Lets not pretend we are democracy. It is a kingdom.

    The Magic Numbers

    Rasmussen: Party Affiliation, November 2011 Republican: 34.3% Democrat: 34.9% Independent/Unaffiliated: 30.8% Those are the magic numbers. With Indies leaning 2 to 1 in favor of the GOP, that's the end of TheBomba!!

    Keystone XL pipeline delayed until after 2012 election

    The Obama administration yielded on the Keystone XL pipeline after protesting and opposition fueled by environmentalists and NIMBYism in the states through which it would pass. The pipeline would send oil from Alberta to the Gulf Coast. Thoughts on this? Do you think that the environmental...

    The 2012 Election Will Come Down to Seven States

    The 2012 Election Will Come Down to Seven States National polls are nice, but Electoral College math is what matters. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424053111903918104576504520213848188.html?mod=googlenews_wsj...

    Planning to steal the 2012 election?

    What is Obama trying to incite with his call to mobilize within the US? Remember his campaign remark that there should be a 'civilian national security force' that is just as powerful and just as well armed as the US military? Source: This sort of SS Brown Shirt rhetoric is troubling in...

    Election day 2010

    [SIZE="2"]Well it's midterm election time. I went out to vote earlier today, even though the choices aren't all that great. The GOP is expected to easily take back the House and the Dems are supposed to hold the Senate, but will probably lose seats there as well. Whether the tea party driven...

    Disappointed?

    Elected on a wave of populism and progressivism, he ditched the liberal image almost the moment he got into office. Wars continued, indeed escalated, in the case of Afghanistan, bail-outs for the rich continued, democracy and liberty continued to be suffocated with bureacracy and the...
