There are variations in hardware and software configurations. The URL doesn't appear for me or for others.

It should most likely be moved to the election thread, but the title clearly mentions that the thread is about the elections, or doesnt that appear either until after you click it
Oh, I was curious about what nonsense was most likely being linked to.

An excellent summary that covers many bases. It points out many of the things that leftists try to explain away and/or sweep under the rug: Obama's failed programs, soaring unemployment, the ominously high number of people who have given up looking for work and so are somehow not counted in the unemployment statistics, his foreign-policy flip-flops, and his increasing alienation of his own base, the loony left.

As usual, the Obama sycophants seem unable to refute the facts and even the opinions given in the article. They are reduced, as usual, to attacking the messenger instead, trying to pretend there is something "wrong" with the website the article appears on and hoping that someone will believe this transfers to there being something somehow "wrong" with the article.

But the author also mentions something I have wondered about for a long time:

Quote:
A Bigger Democrat Problem

There is a bigger problem for Democrats than one election and a failed candidate. The strategy adopted long ago and responsible for most of their success over the last eighty years has played itself out, and they are left with nothing.



Overall, the article paints a stark picture of an Obama presidency going off the rails and unlikely to recover by election day.

You people are a hoot. I'm hardly an Obama fanatic. Not by a long shot.

Either way, it doesn't matter.

Voting in Romney is voting in 4 more years of the same stuff irregardless.

To truly vote for change, you'll have to vote 3rd party this time.

So everything that Obama does is great because he graduated from Harvard? You might want to revise your syllogism.

Wow. Nearly forty posts, and not a single leftist fanatic has tried to address ANY of the reasons laid out in the original article, for Barack Obama losing in November.

Pwned.
