" Despite the fact I'm probably voting for him (regretfully), I find the list below interesting for this reason: "
That is terribly unsettling. You seem to be admitting that President Obama has done a horrible job and yet you won't be able to find another candidate on the ballot to vote for (or to write in). Reminds me of a recent story. The Reverend William Owens said basically that Obama is taking the Black vote for granted since he believes they are in his pocket. I think he would have been there if he had not taken the NAACP for granted. The NAACP had pandered to the president, they are doing his will by endorsing same-sex marriage, and I dont think he counts them as being important now because he already has them. Or of my Black friend who has a degree from a prestigious private university. In 2008, he told me he was voting for Obama. I asked him why. He told me that his family has always voted Democrat. I was hoping for some policy talk or such, especially from someone who so well schooled. Nope. Seems like you are admitting to be in the pocket already. I won't be voting for Mitt or Barack. They both suck. Unlike the last three elections, I will not be voting against a candidate. I will either find someone I like or not vote in that race. On the issue of Romney, I don't see why disenfranchised Democrats don't like him. He's about as progressive a candidate that the GOP has ever put forward. Hell, Soros pretty much gave him a stamp of approval: If its between Obama and Romney, there isnt all that much difference except for the crowd that they bring with them. - George Soros Then Romney even admitted to being "progressive". "I think people recognize that I'm not a partisan Republican, that I'm someone who is moderate, and my views are progressive, and that I'm going to go to work for our senior citizens, for people that have been left behind by urban schools that are not doing the right job. And so they're going to vote for me regardless of the party label." - Mitt Romney J - Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress; but I repeat myself. - Mark Tw ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:352673 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
