Quick question re: Rmoney and Ayn Ryan

Seriously - what are the chances these two morons will be elected? I made the mistake of listening to Hannity today and he and his callers seemed optimistic. Please, please tell me there isn't a chance in hell Americans will vote for these idiots.

And yes, I know. I'll never listen to Hannity again. I just get so aggravated by the fact these idiots lies keep being spread. I don't know if Americans are believing them or not. I don't live there but I am a hop, skip, and a jump away from you guys.

and that scares me to death. Plus I'm surrounded by repukes. I hope that their stance on medicare/medicaid cause them to lose Florida and we go Blue this year. I will feel so much better when Obama polls 15 points ahead down here.

I just get so bloody annoyed when I hear the right wing whine and whine and whine about how Obama is lying and how he's smearing Romney. Where were these jackholes when the lunatics on the right were shitting bricks (and still do) about Obama? I shouldn't complain. Our right wing isn't as bad as your right wing. Yet.

I just listen to the radio sometimes and it was quiet at work. I was bored. No one was there. I wanted to see what he was like. He's a tool.

Believe me, my blood is orange (NDP voter).

The problem will be the voters who are suppressed from voting and the ones who are too good to vote. Anything less than a 2008 turnout will elect R-R.

And will vote for them no matter what, and you've got a close race that shouldn't in any way be close.

“What are your masses but mud to be ground underfoot, fuel to be burned for those who deserve it? What is the people but millions of puny, shrivelled, helpless souls that have no thoughts of their own, no dreams of their own, no will of their own, who eat and sleep and chew helplessly the words others put into their mildewed brains?…I know no worse injustice than justice for all.”

Ayn Rand
