God bless Barack Obama!

Greatest president of our lives.
"Sarah Palin absolutely blew AWAY the audience tonight. If there was any doubt as to whether she was savvy enough, tough enough or smart enough to carry the mantle of Vice President, she put those fears to rest tonight. She took on Barack Obama DIRECTLY on every issue and exposed... She did it with warmth and humor, and came across as the every-person....it's becoming mroe and more clear that she was a genius pick for McCain."

Because Obama has played the China card so differently or the conks didn't heavily contribute to the debt, or the conks have been SO protectionist when it comes to trade. Really, you guys need to get some new material. :lol:

Two of the smartest presidents we ever had. :nod:

BTW, for all you political junkies, if you've never seen the move Frost Nixon, you should. It's really good. :thumb:

Obama admin just imposed stiff tariffs on Chinese-made solar panels. Who knows, Solyndra might not have bitten the dust if Bush had had the balls to do the same. :ohno:

How many of those presidents received 10 million fewer votes in their second election than they did in their first?

I can think of only one: The Magic Negro.

Well, the Chinks love a weak dollar, and Obama with his boy in the Treasury are doing their best to nuke it with QE3. Since QE1 and QE2 worked so well, why not? :dunce:

I think that is completely irrelevant. The only thing that matters is the electoral college. The GOP made gains there when Indiana and North Carolina switched from Dem in 2008 to Rep in 2012.

The total votes mean nothing. I'm sure Obama could have picked up more votes in Texas and Romney could have picked up more votes in California, but why bother. There were only about 9 states up for grabs, the vote totals from the other 41 mean nothing.

When we use it, it's appropriate satire. When you drop, it's vitriol from a hateful conk who thinks poor people and blacks are the root of all America's problems.

Lame Rushannity talking point.

You do realize there are millions of votes yet to be counted?

Even your pea-brain should understand that in NJ/NY/CT alone, 1.5 million fewer votes were cast this year, than in 2008 - mostly Democratic votes not cast because of Sandy.

Fucking Racist Idiot.

Street cred in pasty white bread Wisconsin. :lol:

That's the problem, D. You and the people who think like you are great at pointing fingers and putting labels on everyone and everything...the champions of hyphenated Americanism. The root of America's problems aren't blacks or illegals, the poor, etc. but it is the people who share the same world view as you. You will never ever understand, but there is a clear difference. :nod:

The idea is to win states and get electoral votes, not run up the popular vote. Clearly Romney came closer than McCain did, but the total vote count tells us nothing.

Yup - in 2008, it was apparent much earlier that Obama would win, so he set out to work on states not normally Dem (Ind and NC) and to help out in local races - so a lot of money went to NY/CA as well. This year, it was much closer, so those GOTV efforts in Blue States were curtailed.
