Political choice aside, you honestly think Mitt will win in an "epic landslide" Why? If you compare the number of who voted Democrat and Republican in early voting from 2008 to 2012, the margin is far closer this time. Democrat had significant lead in all the swing states 4 years ago, and while they still have lead in all those swing states now, the margin is way tighter. Another factor I'm taking in that is that everyone who voted for McCain 4 years ago is definitely voting for Romney, where as Obama has lost some of his supporters. I think the Popular Vote will be pretty tight, but electorally, I see Romney getting the slight edge in Florida, Ohio, Nevada, Colorado, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, Virginia, and Pennsylvania. I think it will be a landslide electorally. But hey, I could be completely wrong. This Election is extremely tight and it could go in so many different ways. The fact that you feel Romney will get every one of those battleground states is very laughable. Sorry.

That kind of stupid, uncivil rhetoric comes from both sides.. election seasons bring out the worst of people But I think thoughts motivated by fear and anger come from one side a lot more than the other. Which is why I don't like that side.

But if I do end up being right, I don't think you'll be finding much to call laughable tommorow night(hopefully, because God only knows if we have to wait an extended period of time to find out who won, I'm going to go batcrapinsane)

He'll take some for sure, but no way in seven hells he wins all of them.

Not saying I want you to delete yourself, but I'm just wondering.

Which is why I don't like that side. Hmmm, did you not see how Democrats potrayed George Bush's entire presidency? Both sides are just as guilty of this and to suggest one does it more than the other is crazy. However, I'll gladly pick the side that supports the constitution, rather than the one that underminds it.

My response to that video. GW had a warning IN HAND about bin Laden possibly using American planes to attack our country. But that's not bad or anything. And between 2002 and 2008, 10 US embassies were attacked that led to some 60 American deaths. But it was this Libyan attack was so much worse and this sole attack is what compromised our national security right?

But it was this Libyan attack was so much worse and this sole attack is what compromised our national security right? This isn't about what George Bush's Presidency did, this is about what Barack Obama's did, or didn't do in some cases. Since you've taken the typical Democratic distraction strategy of bringing up things from the passed administration to revert what happened in this one, I'll ask you this. What about when Bill Clinton had the chance to capture Osama Bin Ladin, but intelligence leaked, and by the time we dropped those Tomohawk missles, they were merely into an empty training camp? I think Clinton was a solid President, but he very easily could have prevented 9/11. However, did anyone drive this point into the ground? No, nor should they have. My problem with this Libyan attack is that Obama won't just come out and make the facts clear. Why is he dodging so many questions, making it appear as if he's trying to cover something up? And do I even need to bring up Fast and Furious? And since you brought up that GWB had a warning about planes POSSIBLY crashing into the WTC, what about GWB knew that were possibly Chemicals WMD's being produced in Iraq? Damned if you do and damned if you don't, right? So please, stop with your double standard non-sence that you've plagued this thread with.

Which is why I don't like that side. I disagree completely. The fear mongering and shameless rhetoric comes from all sides of the political spectrum.

My major concerns don't really deal at all with foreign policy. No matter who is in charge, America is still an overall global evil. I'm more concerned with who will serve our actual country best. Also, just for fun I finally took the quiz at isidewith and got ahehehehehe 6%

I think Mitt will likely win Virginia and Florida, but in most polls he's trailing in all of the rest of the swing states.
And to answer the question above, I think drug testing welfare recipients is the biggest waste of time and resources that I can think of for a single piece of legislation since I've been born.

I love Nate Silver... I was surprised with how funny he was when he appeared on a couple of talk shows.

My polling place opens at 6am tomorrow, and I've got the day off, soooo, my game plan is roughly:
- Wake up, likely between 6:30am and 7:00am - Shower - Begrudgingly drive to my polling place, headphones in tow. - Navigate crowds of over-caffeinated sign wavers, standing in like in 40 to 50 degree temperatures. - Write in two bogus, farces of candidates in a bogus, farce of an election. Snap picture of completed ballot with iPhone so I can upload a picture that says something to the effect of "There. I voted. Leave me alone". - Travel to the nearest Redbox with a copy of WWE '13. - Hide from all TV and internet coverage of the election by immersing myself in the blissfully ignorant Attitude era.

I think it should be labeled personally. from what I've researched, the bill is poorly written and full of exemptions with openings for all kinds of lawsuits I am not a fan of all those negatives
