Well, not totally true. We know we'd be getting someone whose name isn't Barack Obama. That's good enough for me.

Dude man that's part of the problem. Settling for good enough... just ain't good enough.

Wow, you hate ~everyone~ who might oppose Obama. Christie's fat, Romney is an immoral flip-flopper, Perry is a moron. Yet not a word of criticism for the ongoing failure in the White House now, who you undoubtedly voted for and who is a national disaster by any objective standard.

You're a good little serf, aren't you?

When the alternative is a proven failure and national disaster it will have to be good enough.

I'm assuming you liked Bush then? Because Obama is doing almost the same things Bush is, but with liberal window dressing. Also, the president has no control over the economy, that's the Federal Reserve that ultimately has that control. Electing Romney or Cain will not make a difference. It hasn't in the past, it won't in the future

At least Kerry admitted that he had changed his positions on certain issues, as did Reagan.
As to Mr. Romney, he appears to have no acknowledgement that he has ever held any positions other than his current position of the month on a particular issue.
And, that is what I have a major problem with.
The flip floppers mostly come from the northeast...except John McCain who becomes a conservative during election years.

The way Obama is using those drones and strikes, I'd make him the head of the Department of Defense or Sheriff of the US. Who knew he'd be so good at getting the bad guys? I have to say, as a conservative, I'm impressed with that aspect of his Presidency. Plus killing them where they live means less arguing over civilian versus military trials. We don't need no stinkin' "torture" or guys living high on the hog on the taxpayer's dime at Guantanamo. Let's just mow 'em down over there. (He should use this for the saving money argument.)

I like that phrase alot. "High on the Hog at Guantanamo". Never thought I'd see High on the hog and guantanamo used in the same sentence.

Not really true, the President's overall agenda and administration sets the atmosphere for businesses and their confidence in expanding, spending money, hiring, etc. Once they have that confidence back you will start to see the economy turn around.

Obama and his administration has been so negative for businesses, they have just held on to any money the have. They are not expanding or hiring. Every time the economy shows any positive signs of growth they do something else to take it down. Obamacare is a good example which killed any recovery from the recession we saw.

The unbrainwashed"I'm assuming you liked Bush then? Because Obama is doing almost the same things Bush is".

Amen, and it is no surprise. beginning with Rubin's courtship by Clinton, a RR Citigroup disciple has been in the WH at all times (Summers, Geitner, etc). We might as well just let Wall St officially be the president, as well as Congress, and make it official. 309 million serve these traitorous WS barbarians, who more often than not, act as enemies of the nation.
