So Obama isn't going to win in November?? When is the "third party" candidate going to begin campaigning? Obama doesn't need to get MOST of the votes in the States just more than any of the other candidates.
I would be open to other choices but there are none.
Sanitorium ?? Sexually repressed and wants the rest of the country to be too.
Romney ? Seems to change position depending on whom he is talking to.
Newt ? HAHAHAHA
How do you know Santorum is "sexually repressed?" Do you know all about his personal life?
What they "spew" (asking the government not to raise taxes, to not spend more than it receives in revenue and to respect the Constitution) makes perfect sense to me. Would you rather the government raise taxes, continue to spend more than it receives and not respect the Constitution?
Where is the "hypocrisy?"
Funny where were clowns like you when GWB went above and beyond any President in history in spending more than we received???
Uhhhhh nowhere...case closed...call Rush for a talking point!

Actually its just called common sense. Any normal human being can see the guy has seriouse sexual repression issues.
It's like a guy is 48-yrs old, lives in his moms basement, all his 'friends' are the elementary aged kids in the neighborhood and he always wants to take pictures of them running through the sprinkler in their bathing suits...DO YOU REALLY NEED ANY PROOF?

My god are you Republicans REALLY this creepy?
Oh, okay. Because YOU fantasize about stuff, that means everyone else is "creepy." Yeah, you've got a really airtight argument there. Better take it off your head though before it strangles you.
Growth in GDP, January thru October 2004 (10 months):

Growth in GDP, June 2011 thru March 2012 (10 months):

In both cases, the most recent month is equal. However, the current trend strongly suggests that 2012 will show significantly better GDP growth than 2004.
As for jobs, the average monthly job growth in 2004 was below 200k (2200k for 12 months, or 183k/month). At present, we've seen job growth exceeding 220k for the past three months. Obama's Magic Number? 150,000 Jobs Per Month - NYTimes.com
As for the lagging economic indicator of the unemployment rate, most people know full well how this picture came into being:
The trend correlating with Presidential elections isn't the economic present compared to where we'd all like to be but the current economic trajectory. This is why Carter lost in a landslide with an unemployment rate of 7.5%, but Reagan won in a landslide despite an unemployment rate only slightly better at 7.2%. The critical facts? In 1980, the unemployment rate had risen over 1% in the previous year, while in 1984 it had fallen over 1% in the previous year. In 1980, things were getting worse, in 1984, things were getting better.
Of course, it is conceivable that everything could go south in the next seven months. But if it doesn't, and if current trends continue, then the outcome of the Presidential election is all but certain.

Damn. You make harborlady sound sane...
I wish I could provide a good reply to you, but honestly I have no idea what you are saying???
Don't forget to include all the unions and all the people that are on the government take, whether it's a government job holder or a welfare recipient, all the black people and all the illegal immigrants. The people who work for a living are outnumbered by those who vote for a living. How can Obama not win?
Illegal immigrants dont vote ..
Also when the GOP has its epic fail in November it will be attitudes like nite ryders that sank the republican ship.
