Refresh my memory...what incidents of violence have there been with automatic weapons?

The only poll that matters is the exit poll.

CBS poll was worse for Obama. MSNBC panel favored Romney as well as Fox's panel. The only people who think Obama won big are you hacks.
No, we're the ones that actually watched it.

I can think of no better way than watching the debate. Saw it first hand and, OUCH, Romney took a drubbing!!

Quote:
Obama has been sinking lately, and just showing up last night isnt going to change anything. Especially when he dodged almost every question and couldnt defend his record. He had nothing
Remember, with all of your vague and goofy rhetoric, the only poll that matters happens on the first Tuesday in November.

"Have you looked at your pension?"
"Have you looked at your pension?"

That was especially menacing and disrespectful.

Default Romney

What I don't understand: so many people post how great Obama has done and how wonderful he will do in a second term. I am middle class with two kids. I have seen my utilities rise, my home value fall, my health insurance go up, my car insurance go up, no raise in almost two yrs, people laid off at my job, I cannot afford to drive my SUV because gas prices are so high, sketchy foreign policy, and now the Bush tax cuts may end come Jan 2013. I am just trying to find out where the folks that are pro Obama are seeing rainbows? My neighbors have lost homes as well. Also my son's college tuition went up. And with Obamacare coming I don't see how our taxes will go down and what about premiums, co payments, referrals to specialists and who determines our fate if we have a major illness and require specialized medical care? I haven't heard any specifics on Obamacare which worries me. Some people say that Romney is not pro woman's rights but in what way? Will Romney keep the education, mortgage deduction etc for tax payers? i didn't hear that answered by either candidate last night despite the question. I like Mitts stance on Immigration, he spoke very well about that and I respect what he said and agree with it. The economic recovery has been very slow, too slow but I worry about our deficit going up even more with the costs of Obamacare. I have spoken to a few seniors and early 50s people that still have the worries about the changes to MediCare. Early 50's are worried that their coverages will be affected much more and are on the fence. This forum seems to have some pretty sensible posters so I thought I would put my questions out there.

Obama is a big boy. He will get over it.
