Relatively speaking, it was. When you look at the last few elections, 7% is a landslide.

Even Clinton won with only a 5.5% spread in 92.

The last election with a spread that big was Reagan/Carter in 1980, at 9.7%.

My sources are fine. Take it like a man.

Why somebody hasn't had this whack-job tackled and sedated by now is beyond me. The guy needs a jacket with 96" sleeves, if you get my drift.

"ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL
BUT SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS." George Orwell....Animal Farm...
Animal Farm (1945) is a satirical novella (which can also be understood as a modern fable or allegory) by George Orwell, ostensibly about a group of animals who oust the humans from the farm on which they live. They run the farm themselves, only to have it degenerate into a brutal tyranny of its own.

Go Ralph Go! If people would have listened to Ralph in 2008 when he called out Obama for just being another corporate/establishment empty suit war hawk perhaps we would have made a wiser choice for President. Sadly the Obama hype machine was so large that millions of people got blinded by the light so to speak.

Attention ignorant liberals, You voted for him, you worshiped him, own your decision. You wanted Hope and Change and all you got was more of the same.
Ha, you act as if McCain would be any better! That's the problem in this country. People really by into the (R)/(D) machine is if it makes a damn difference. Obama, Bush, McCain, Palin, they're all the same. They are two sides of the same coin.

Ralph Nader is Arabic and though his family is Christian, he's always been sympathetic to Muslims. Of course he would be critical of attacks on Libya.

Pay it no mind.
