Republicans and the voters they can depend on this election

Women: uh no

Hispanics: uh no

African-Americans: uh no

The middle class (what's left of it): uh no

Seniors: now, fuck no

Blue collar: uh no

Police, Firefighters, EMS: uh no

Rich White white collar workers and CEOs: yes


This is one election that "The Other" (remember that remark) has effectively won without a vote being cast


The Republican party, running two ducks in a barrel, and this time, the Dems have the shotgun.

Bigots, who may be women, middle class, seniors, blue collar, police, firefighters, and EMS. Also, don't forget the right-wing Christians. I see a group of voter, at least in Alabama, who a Romney/Ryan presidency would hurt them drastically, yet they HATE President Obama. This seems to be based on pure racism or abortion rights.

And don't forget the Republican State Legislatures who are working extremely hard to reduce the Democratic vote. Between voter ID, limiting early voting hours, and last minute voter list purges, three very important swing states could be stollen for Romney.
