Obama didn't do anything to improve the U.S. economy during his term in office!
So, just put Romney & Ryan in office and see what they can accomplish in 4 years!

One of two things...

You are a low information voter or...
You are just spreading lies.

The housing market is higher than it has been in four years
People's 401k Plans are up
Wall Street doing very well
Cut the Deficit by $300 Billion
Unemployment down
Consumer confidence up

...and all of this with record obstruction by a GOP controlled Congress. Obama 2012

Anyone in a comfortable position in their lives can pick and chose what they want to see, hear or read and talk about home prices and new constructions are up for those who still have homes compared to those who lost their jobs and homes!
The overall U.S. economy still hasn't improved under Obama!
For the 23 million unfortunate people, unemployment still looks sad for most, gas and food prices are up, more people are on food stamps today, over a trillion dollars has been spent on Welfare for 2011!

You see, the comments here are coming from those of "who have" and not those from the "have nots"!
The overall U.S. economy still hasn't improved under Obama! That's why it's time for a change!
For the 23 million unfortunate people, unemployment still looks bad for them, gas and food prices are up, more people are on food stamps today, over a trillion dollars has been spent on Welfare for 2011!
Anywhere from 636,017 in 2011 were homeless
http://www.endhomelessness.org/libra...n-america-2012 , what of them while those who post on forums like CD are home and comfortable and are on top of their political bashing games!

Even though voting Democrat or Republican don't matter in this blue state of mine, I will be voting Romney this time around just because he is not Obama and not because he is Republican. I will vote Democrat in four years if they are elected and don't get the job done.

I really hope some sort of third or fourth party would become available so we have choices instead of choosing the better of two turds. Yes, I see both Romney and Obama as bad candidates.
Since you say your vote won't matter anyway, vote third party. You must have Gary Johnson, Jill Stein and, possibly, Virgil Goode on the ballot in NJ. Check out their websites.

One reason for voting third party:
Quote:
If [candidate] gets at least 5% this time, then the [Third] Party qualifies as a Major Party & [third party candidate] gets $90 million from Feds for 2016 campaign. Then we will never again have to vote for the lesser of 2 evils to pick a winner.

I'm not voting third party because, in WI, my vote does matter. Otherwise, I'd probably be voting for Jill Stein.
