I think it's become a Vegas Sportsbook. This forum is like being inside one of the casino's Sportsbook. For those of you who have been inside one of those, you'll notice that those who have wagered money on their favorite team are also the ones who are the loudest and go through 15 different emotions in a span of the game, oscillating with each play.

Yes, I think this is exactly what ALL general elections are like -- and I am amazed at how many people seem to give equal importance tomorrow's election and the Super Bowl.

I've never head Nancy Pelosi's name used so much by fat middle aged white men in my area. No hate there.


You have to be smoking some serious stuff to not even stop to think about the ridiculous and blatant hypocrisy in your post before you hit "submit reply".
I think that you proven that there is hatred and hypocrisy on BOTH sides.

Yes, the more everything has been building and building, and election day getting closer, and of course all of the smack-talking , it's been reminding me of a prize fight, too.

I feel like that too because, more often than not, I find myself laughing at things that are going on and some of the people who take this stuff seriously. Dead seriously. How can they see that it isn't serious.

I am getting e-mails reminding me about election coverage tomorrow and I feel like they should put up the top 'LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE'.

A lot of it does just make me laugh and deep down I don't believe that anything will or even can change.
