If that were the case (people voting for some candidate no matter what) then you'd expect voter turnout to be higher than it typically is (where getting close to 60% is considered really high turnout). Fact is, many people vote only if they really are behind a candidate. Sure there is a core of voters who see it as civic duty not to miss voting, but that's not nearly everyone.

Hey I never said he was a great president, but between him and the sorry excuses for people that the GOP has put forward, I'll consider voting for Obama. I will not vote for the likes of Newt Gingrich. Ever.

Well if our only choice is the "Crapocrat" or what the tea-tards are putting forward...Hell would freeze over before I would vote for any of those Teapublican frauds.

Except, Huntsman and Paul, but of course they are the most logical, real, and sincere ones, so in the Teapublican world that is a sure recipe for failure

Obama is a substance that people who love freedom scrape off the bottom of their shoe. We are supposed to throw away our American heritage for this communist.

The other day..the Kenyan said capitalism is a theory that has never worked.

I do like Huntsman and Paul. I wouldn't be upset if Huntsman ended up nominated, but he won't, and Paul...at least he's sincere and says what he means. I can respect that.

Looks like someone needs to pick up a copy of the Communist Manifesto and learn for himself what it really is instead of relying on nutjobs to define it for him.

centre left does not = communist, and anyone who thinks otherwise is a fool.

It is hard to comprehend that anyone in this country wants another four years of the misery that we have had in the last three years of Obama. I truly worry about this country and what it will be like if he gets another term.

Just three years later my disgust and revulsion towards the stupidest president we've ever had is nothing compared to the total hatred displayed by my two liberal relatives. Three years ago I asked what they could possibly expect from a corrupt Chicago community organizer it was everything; respect in the world, full employment and an end to corruption.

Three years, my how things have changed for the deadbeat in the white house with a wife that could easily be best friends with Grace Mugabe of Zimbabwe.

Two disgusting and vile people as ever in the white house.

What scares me is a second term is possible.

"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."

This quote came from the Czech Republic . Someone over there has it figured out.
"You people" crack me up....most moderates and liberals won't usually waste our time responding to posts or threads like this.

Just keep on posting your vitrol and crazy rhetoric.....as posters and others read it they all know which party is selling out our country and causing the United States to "go down the tubes".
