The sad truth is, none. Do a good sales pitch, and folks forget all the ****e you've been up to, or all the ridiculous things you've said. Such is politics.

I hope I am wrong, but seems like a lot of folks like the guy in spite of the evidence he is not fit to lead. Seems like people had low expectations of Bush as well.

Truth. There is bountiful reason to vote for neither Obama nor Romney. But, one of them will win.

Tough choise between his disgust for the 47% and flip flopping on every issue.

I think the real reason is that his plans would destroy what is left of the economy,

How about the attack on an unprotected embassy in one of the most dangerous places in the world and then a cover-up about it.

No place for all of the above in the poll. Mr. Steal your pension and load you with debt Romney will not tell the people about himself . His resume concerning his business doesnt match up with his statements. He is shorting the country with the investments that the press can find. He is still involved with Bain through the investments he has with smaller shell Corp.

Santorium was right "The worst Republican to put against Pres."

Do you even know the meaning of scandal? There have been negatives: some strictly from the left, some probably deserved, just like any other Pres candidate, but they are anything but scandals!! and will them cost him the election? Probably none of the negatives are going to cost him anything..

As stated a few times before. Don't vote for either one. Give them both a "NO CONFIDENCE VOTE" by "throwing your ballot away". Write in two names designated as the "Trash Can". When the media interviews these two, they can state, on national media, just what's wrong with ALL OF THEM. It will only work if everyone across the country uses the same names for the "Trash Can".

Leonard Fons for President
Jerry O'Connor for Vice President.

The more ballots they get, the stronger the voice, and the more influence they may have. And, while the "Trash Can" doesn't have to win the election to be effective, it might actually be a huge blessing for this country if it did. It would put all politicians on notice to do a bit less talking and a great deal more LISTENING. We've been accepting the "Lessor of the Evils" for far too long. And, it's not just Obama or Romney, or G. W. Bush. It goes all the way back to Nixon and beyond. To ask if you're better off under Obama than you were under Bush isn't exactly valid when you think about the 10, 15, or 20 year plans. Better to ask if you are better off now than you were under Ford or Carter. And, I'm afraid the answer for the majority of Americans is, no. During the '70s, there were far more full-time jobs with full benefits, and a far better ratio of income to expenses than we've had in the last 20 years. People could actually afford to do something with their earnings. Things that are not possible today with so many living a "hand-to-mouth" existence. That's not the way to turn the economy around, and neither Obama nor Romney has given any kind of valid plan. In order to get the economy flowing again, the income group with the LARGEST NUMBER OF PEOPLE must have the money to spend. Don't know about the rest of you, but what I'm seeing and hearing (although, it's not being called that) is more of Bush's "TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMY". And, we all know just how well that worked, don't we?

Throwing your vote into the "Trash Can" sends a message that voting for the "Lessor of the Evils" does not. It can not be mistaken for what it is not. In the last election, we showed that we wanted "CHANGE". What we got was nearly no change at all. Business as usual.
