It is clearly going to be Williard

[Syrinx]

The primaries don't matter. They are fixed.

Fox News represents the Republican establishment. And the establishment controls both parties.

It's definitely going to be Romney versus Obama. We know that.

And the winner will be Romney... unless BIG DOOM is coming, and the insiders know it.

In which case they will throw it to the Democrat.

USA is fucked and the establishment has us all fucked.

I'm sorry to bring the news. But it is true.

DOOM is not inevitable. But it is, unless a big leader steps up big time.

Romney is a haircut and a joke. Obama, despite my early hopes, isn't much better.

Someone needs to step up. It isn't Ron Paul's crazy ass.

We need an amazing leader to step up and save us.

Obama isn't, apparently, the person. And obviously Romney isn't either.

1. I've still got my money on the Newt although I'd love Mittens.

[DCKit]

30. This one!

[Sherman A1]

2. It always was

Mitt is the GOP Placeholder in 2012. Obama is the choice of the monied interests. The GOP field is simply around for the media to build one up, then tear them down to maintain a news (sell ads) cycle. The only real interesting part of this election will be the GOP #2 choice as the set up to 2016.

[emulatorloo]

14. Yes, this is exactly why Mitch McConnell vowed to make Obama a one-term President

and proceeded with his party to sabotage the economy.

[Sherman A1]

28. Disagree

as you wish, but watch what happens in the next few months.

The Republican Establishment controls both Parties? Try again.

5. "And the establishment controls both parties."

Whatever.

Are we not able to unrec in DU3?

[Odin2005]

12. Truth hurts, eh?

[jefferson_dem]

16. Once I encounter it, i'll let you know.

Eh.

[randome]

20. Heh. Funny.

Mjolnir arguing with Odin.

[TlalocW]

21. Heh

I think the voices would need to be done by Graham Chapman and Eric Idle in the style of King Arthur and the political peasant from Holy Grail.

Odin: Damn it, hammer, I said, "Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor." I'm trying to an incantation on you!
Mjolnir: Well, no one ever said anything to me about having an incantation put on me! I mean, how would you feel if I were trying to put an incantation on you? You probably wouldn't like it now would you?
Odin: Damn it! I'm putting an incantation on you whether you like it or not! I'm Odin All-Father!
Mjolnir: Help! Help! I'm being repressed!

24. DUzy!

[Odin2005]

23. LMAO, good catch!!!

[Chemisse]

6. No matter how much money controls the system

It still does come down to the number of votes, and the crazy tea partiers are not as easily manipulated as the remainder of the Republican lambs.

[Bogart]

7. "We need an amazing leader to step up and save us."

That is precisely the type of "thinking" that effected our current state of affairs.

People need to take a good long look at themselves. Not as Democrats, not as Republicans, or blacks, or whites, or whatever stereotype they identify with, but as individuals.

Do that, and you will discover that the "amazing leader" who can "step up and save" you, is right there in the mirror.

13. +1,000,000,000,000,000,000

[spanone]

8. if you don't think Obama has been better than the alternative (mccain)

dream on

[abelenkpe]

9. Still worried repubs will choose Ron Paul nt

[sufrommich]

10. Nobody is going to "step up" and

Obama will win the election.

[Odin2005]

11. We The People are the leader we have been looking for.

OWS has shown the wisdom of collective decision making. Looking for a savior to get us out of this mess is an authoritarian delusion. Sadly, it was a delusion I fell into in 2008 when Obama's charisma bamboozled me.

[randome]

17. Are you easily bamboozled, then?

Have faith in no one but yourself. Do what you can. Don't look to 'saviors'.

[Odin2005]

25. I was an idealistic 22yo kiddo, give me a break!

[randome]

27. Okay. You get your break.

[Autumn Colors]

15. I think they're planning to throw Jeb in at the last minute (nt)

[MjolnirTime]

18. Why do you insist on trying to infect others with your hopelessness?

I'll pass on the Memetic Poison.

[TlalocW]

22. Unless Romney does two things, Obama shouldn't have trouble with him

Those two things are: 1. Get a personality transplant and 2. Reveal beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is in fact not Mormon but has always been an evangelical Christian.

TlalocW

[GodlessBiker]

26. I bet you $10,000 he'll get the transplant.

[Orangepeel]

29. If the only hope is a savior, then, yeah, I guess we're fucked

I think that waiting for an amazing leader to step up and save us can only lead to disappointment. People need to vote for a congress that isn't actively working against them. That's the only fix that's necessary or possible.
