How does it feel to know that if you were planning to vote for Mitt Romney you would be better off not voting at all and going bowling instead?

I don't trust any polls. Just a slight change in the way a question is worded can change the percentages. I guess Obama likely winner. Could be very close for 2nd with Mitt Romney & Gary Johnson. I wonder if the pollsters trying to ignore Gary Johnson will consider, or even notice, that Gary now has TV ad running in NM, CO, OR, MT, ID, VT & DC: Soon, many little children will die...I'm the only candidate that won't bomb Iran.

Gary is on the ballot in 48 states (not OK & MI). Jill Stein (Green) is on ballot maybe in a few less states.

The Republicans got Gary's name removed from ballots so he was on only 34 state ballots. Fighting back cost Johnson campaign much time & money. If Gary had as big a budget as Obama & Romney, he'd win.

I'll be glad to vote for Gary Johnson as the most likeable person, with good issues positions. if Gary gets 5% of the vote, Libertarians get Major Party status & Gary gets $90 million from Feds for 2016 campaign & he won't be left out of most polls & debates. Can fiscal sanity & social tolerance win in 2016?

Romney has a hot temper & loves to say who he hates, he wants more wars & loves Big Oil. Will many people vote for him because of these things, or just because he's a Republican? Will he likely get 20%-25%? Obama, 35%-40%? Johnson 15%-20%? Stein 10%-15%? Rocky Anderson 3%? Virgil Goode 1%? I'm sure I'm wrong, but so are many polls! Might Gary Johnson & Jill Stein debate on internet Tuesday evening influence a few? Best wishes.

This is the funniest thing I've read in this thread.

Look I agree with just about all of Johnson's positions and think he is a fine candidate, but this is simply delusional.

We differ on the role of the Republican Congress. But ask yourself this: why did the Tea Party spring up? Why did the Republican Class of 2010 get elected? And just two short years after 70% of us approved of Barack Obama on Inauguration Day. If you think a couple billionaires can inspire an entire nation to throw the Dems out of the House, you have too high an opinion of the strength of money.

Obamacare does much more than rein in insurance industry abuses. It OUTLAWED one of the few proven real-world health care cost reducers, high deductible health insurance. It OUTLAWED my ability to pay cash out of pocket for routine, recurring expenses. It said my preferred form of insurance does not even qualify as insurance. If you think our forefathers fought and died so that some day Nancy Sebillius could pick and choose who had to follow the law under threat of penalties, and who could ignore the law, you have a sadly mistaken view of our country.

I can't help but notice that you evidently agree that community banks should be put out of business just because some ideologue's idea of financial reform got passed by a Dem legislature run amok. And that it is OK if hundreds of thousands of people lose their jobs in a major expansion of the EPA. Did I get that right?

Gawd, what a Fox bubble.
* The dems never had the power to "run amok". They are stonewalled and filibustered by repubs.
* The forefathers did not "fight and die" for corporations. There is nothing in the constitution about corporations.
* Don't ask me about the teabaggers' origins. They are the congressional "useful idiots" of the corporate right. There is nothing more to say about them.
* This is the system that runs our country (embraced unanimously by conservative repubs btw).

* Community banks are out of business because of competition from the bigger banks (the republican base), not a dem legislature. Did Fox say this?
You are attempting the Romney "debate" tactic. There's a name for it which escapes me, but I can call it the "jerk-around".
