do you really think the job outsourcing started with the Bush's or even Clintons, etc?
I agree....wont matter if Romney or Obama is going to be prez, they will continue to outsource and offshore and automate and jobs will continue to be hard to come by, unless you have some particularly in-demand talent or education, or have "connections". Thats just the way it is, and we will have to adjust to this reality.

I know the election is going to turn on the economy, but the President, whoever he is, doesnt have much say in the big economic trends, which is what this outsourcing thing is.

@@@@

But yeah, it does look like Obama is going to be re-elected, and we will have four years like the last four years, where Obama is balanced out by the GOP controlling Congress...which is why I think the conservatives shouldnt be too alarmed by and Obama win.

Assuming the GOP controls Congress for the foreseable future, the next big chance for change will be in 2016, which I bet the GOP will end up in control of the executive and legislative branches, like in the Bush years.

The only thing more or less certain is the race will be determined before we cross the Mississippi.

Everyone seems to agree that NAFTA is bad, but neither party is moving to get rid of it. Go figure.

Obama has done more to divide this country than anyone in history.
Uh...WE is WE..which means all inclusive--but the Republicans do not understand that WE means ALL. The night of Obama's inaugration the Party of 6 including Ryan met to put a plan to make sure he gets only one term. I don't care what race the person is in the White House...I care about OUR nation---I think you are intelligent enough to understand that. The Black man, White man, Latino man, Mixed man standing next to me is part of that WE because WE share and live on the SAME soil and WE are all working together to make a better life for our future.....

Why would you turn the word WE into a racial thing....Obama being divisive??!!!! I truly send my love to you...Are you sitting next to your imaginary chair as your Guest speaker was Clint Eastwood...so pitiful!
