I think the BS comes from your statement you know many cops...
Chicago police officers are required to live in the city. If one lives in certain neighborhoods especially, one would know A LOT of police officers.
That being said, my sister-in-law is a Chicago police officer and the rumor of people having to report because of election results is nothing more than b.s.
Mitt Romney asserted that 23 million people are out of work. Unfortunately he included 8 million people who were working part-time.
Romney's full of his own facts...

12.8 million ON unemployment
3 million not actively looking (not counted)
8 million working part time jobs wishing they had a full time job
23.8

Unemployment/underemployment are calculated as a percentage of the workforce. Obviously, if two people are working part time (20 hours a week) who want to be/need to be working full time, then that is one full time job that is missing.
Here’s how the Bureau of Labor Statistics broke down those numbers for August, the most recent month available:
There were 12.5 million people officially unemployed, and this is the figure that is used to make up the jobless figure, most recently 8.1%.
There were also about 8 million people who were working part-time in August, although not by their own choice. Some said they couldn’t find full-time work, but most said they were working part-time because of weak business conditions.
Obama going on and on about his grandmother when people want to understand where Medicare and social security are headed? He's the incumbent - we already know his bio. What was that about? I really, really want to believe Obama will do better if he has a second term, but he offers nothing to make us think he'll do anything better.
WTF does this have to do with 0bama crashing 12% on intrade???
BTW I knew I should have put a short on 0bummer...
I cant wait to hear the polls next week..
