That and other "investments" have left us less money to worry about so all we have to worry about is the debt it has become part of.

Especially if it's not your side!

BTW, a car and sports enthusiast who doesn't appreciate "competitive branding", "enthusiasm" and "team loyalty"..?! Now that's 'bizarre'!

I'd like to share your optimism A_Lexus but at this point it could go either way which amazes me as unless you are making big bucks theres nothing in a Romney/Ryan Presidency for the middle class just a raising of your taxes and a slashing of many social programs you may possibly need in your life.

At this point, all the Repubs can do is try to:
1) LIE
2) BUY or
3) STEAL (voter suppression)
the election.

Well, yesterdays performances should have cleared everything up. Surely we got a full picture of what the Romnerbarron and Lyinryan plans are, right?

This is, indeed, devastating news for Romney. Nearly as devastating as the knowledge that the first presidential race has been run, and Romney lost by a snout:

Presidential Pig Race 2012 Predicts Obama Victory - Yahoo! News

As an independent, my opinion is swayed just a little bit less by articles like these than by the clearly devastating loss Romney suffered in Nevada at the hands of Obama.
