Don't be so sure - the delegate count will be closer than what most people think. Regardless, Ron Paul is the best (in fact the only) chance to end the status quo. If people aren't smart enough to elect him, I doubt there is any point in starting another party.

Americans are just too darn stupid :asdf:
 
The empty chair and the empty head!

The Obama of the imagination is the media’s Obama. Out of their fascination with the color of his skin and their mindless awe at his windy teleprompted rhetoric, they constructed a man of stature and accomplishment. Now, with the White House on the line, they’re waging an ongoing battle against the undeniable evidence that he has never been, in fact, that man.

Yes, every Australian vote counts! ;)

Doris, where are you? This is your thread. Obama needs you.

Watching and waiting with baited breath for the third debate guys.

My belief is that the first debate last week was Barack's quietly setting a trap for Romney. It worked.
Cocky Mitt told untruths (AKA lies) in four categories to appeal to 'the poor, er, low income earners'.
The next day, Obama's Truth Team put out 30-40 sec TV ads with a video of Romney's claims during the debate and these were followed by independent experts refuting with actual facts as well as video of Romney's platform speeches even 2 months ago.

The Vice-Presidential debate is on tomorrow lunch-time our time. Should be interesting. Many believe Romney chose Ryan because he had contacts with special interest groups and lobbyists which would, and have, yielded $ millions each in donations. Obama continues his pledge to avoid these and accept only from grass roots individuals.

Debates 2 & 3 between Romney and Barack over the next two weeks will be worth watching. Official data which will blow Romney out of the water. Again, at lunch time our time. Record them! You won't regret it.
 
Welcome back Doris. Just in time!

REPUBLICAN presidential candidate Mitt Romney has surged into the lead in opinion polls, his reward for beating President Barack Obama in last week's first head-to-head debate.
 
i still cant believe ppl think theres a difference between the two (obama v romney)!

different faces on the same puppet, both blatant liars, scumbags & warmongers...

seems its the same the world over though... we have juliar and the mad abott... talk about a global lose/lose scenerio....

voltaire would be turning in his grave!
 
OBAMA LIES:
1) do away with presidential 'signing statements' to modify/undermine legislation...... LIE... he went on to use them even more than the despicable bush jr did to make sure he got his own way!

2)end the despotic patriot act... LIE... not only did he not end it he re-inforced it by adding the NDAA act

3) stop wars /bring troops home/limit overseas miitary adventuerism.....LIE ...he has started even more military actions & committed more troops, and murdered more civilians in presidential authorized drone attacks than ever before

4)bring to justice the corrupt financial institutions & practices that caused 2008 GFC...LIE ....how could he? all his financial advisors are goldman sachs cronies who were up to their neck in the corruption...plus no serious charges against corrupt individuals & corporations involved were ever followed through by the 'justice' dept...

ROMNEY ....made his fortune as a 'corporate raider' parasite feeding off the misery of others... enough said!

this shows who the true rulers of the USA are and it sure aint either of these 2 bozo's!

the yanks dropped the ball bigtime by ignoring and rejecting the sanity of Ron Paul...

I saw a doco set in almost all towns where Romney bought up struggling businesses, broke them up and sold the pieces for profit... putting all employees out of work. The townspeople and previous employees were interviewed. Reminds me of the movie 'Pretty Woman'. But Romney claims he cares about increasing jobs!

Romney's increase of $1 trillion for defence (Obama is neutral) will increase jobs and "have the US ready in case China becomes aggressive". I spoke to Chinese businessmen on vacation on the Gold Coast last Friday. They said China and the US were good friends... US their best trading partner... China had bought lots of US notes. They wondered why Romney would suspect animosity. Doesn't the US initiate a war to improve the economy? (See the John Candy 'Canadian Bacon' movie. Old but good comedy)
 
Not that I follow US politics - but for all the years Obama has been in - it's all been about posturing and showboating.

Lots of young people in America and abroad (I've been back twice since he was elected) were so pumped to have the first 'black' president sworn in...yet couldn't list a thing he stood for!

Bandwagoning will get you so far...wouldn't mind seeing his 'hot air' blown off somewhere else.
 
Well, hello again Doris. We haven't heard a whisper from since your last campaign to have Obama elected.
Please tell us you are not once more planning to bombard us with hundreds of copies of Obama's emails to the faithful.

It is interesting that the Obarmy detractors in this thread (including moi) of 4 years ago were largely spot on. 10/10 for the soaring rhetoric, 1/10 for delivery on said rhetoric.

The first pres debate looks to have been a game changer, Mit well in with a chance now...

...it's possible the Big 'O' may get the Big 'A'.

The big hurdle for Romney is that in the last election at least 95% of African-Americans voted for Obama. These people will vote again on the basis of his colour and not his performance which has been woeful. If he is re-elected it will be because he is a black man.
 
watching Biden v Ryan.....

twit of the day

You know what's depressing as hell? When a moderator in a U.S. presidential debate can say, "let's move to another war . . . "
