and with jeb, the theft machine

you don't think jeb actually wants mitt to use his machine to win, do you?
it's jeb's ball, and he won't let mitt in the game

everything else is being done to lower the house members the dems win

He shrugged off the vice-presidential ticket and from what little I've seen, he's waaaayyy too left for the Republican base.

and once Ryan is repudiated, the repubs will move to the central (or appear to) to attempt to defeat Hillary in 2016.

everything has been done for Jebs advantage (the changes in the nominating process passed around convention time), and Jeb has a major book coming out next year about education

and Jeb is for immigration solution of some sort

like Hillary, it's in Jeb's blood to try it.Retirement is not what he wants, and he knew (as the Bush's also play that chessgame that he couldn't win this year, and the bush's as proven in the past, are patient people.

Like Obama knows, it's the long term that matters more than the immediate, once you win.
It's why 2014 is even more important than 2012 once Obama wins.

imho of course.

get the red out

If the news media drags it out past midnight to keep people from turning of the TV. Then it will technically be decided on Nov 8th.

Have hinted that the stars show possible problems for election day. They said mercury turns retrograde on election day, which messes up communication systems. I hope they are wrong!

I feel it will be decided that night (the 6th) or in the early morning hours (on the 7th).
