Says you? Who are you?

It is absolutely a reason for me to rule out a forced-birther candidate.

A fetus is living and has an inalienable right to live, just as much as a human living in the outside world does.

Says who? You? I ask again, who are you and why should I care?

My view is different. Until it is born, it's a parasite. Nothing more.

We're not going to convince each other, and as much as I love a good fight with forced birthers, it's ultimately pointless, so I suggest we agree to disagree.

Didn't follow politics as much as I do now but voted McCain in 2008 as I percieved him to be the lesser of two evils. With his pro military over-extension rhetoric over the last few years, I'm not sure that was the case, but since he lost, that's neither here, nor there. The OP states "if the election were held tomorrow" and with that, I'll have to take four more years of Obama then a potential eight years of Romney. I won't write Ron Paul in, as there's a good possibility write-ins aren't counted. Gary Johnson is a good possibility by election time, and we'll see what happens at the Tampa convention, but "tomorrow" I vote for Obama.

You did good job but you may want to differentiate those Romnney votes as you did for Obama votes. Just how many of those votes really like Rommny or simply dislike Obama?

Nader 2008 / Obama 2012


I do think I would have considered Ron Paul more seriously had he been their choice but I don't like his social stands.
