Maraya1969's JournalSome jackass Romney whiner is saying that people with <30K income voted for Obama
greater than 60%. Which may be true but it pisses me off that he is saying this. He also said he might become a Democrat next time so he can get a free ride and a free meal on election day.
What do I say to this guy. He has already announced that he is a 1%'er. He is a pompous ass. Now they are doing everything they can to try an make Obama's win seem not such a big thing.
And does anyone know what % of the population voted this year? Because this guy and another one are trying to say that Obama was voted in with less than 25% of the population which means that less than 50% must have voted.
What cry babies they are.
Did Nate Silver miss a state or why is his electoral collage numbers prediction not right?
He had it at 313 to 225 Obama to Romney but the final results were 332 to 206 Obama to Romney.
I have looked at his map and the final election map and I can't find one state that he got wrong unless it is a tiny one that I just can't see.
Does anyone know why his electoral count is off?
Do you think it's time we start bombarding Boehner's phone and email? Telling him to tax the rich?
I think it's time and that we should keep it up. Remember the bush tax cuts end in January so this fight is just underway. Here is his information.

I'm going to remind him that he lost seats in both the House and Senate and the Presidency and if he keeps on with his politics of obstructionism he is going to lose his job and the majority because the average voter is becoming more and more aware of what they are doing.
Some right wing celebrity rants
First good OLD Ted Nugent.
early Tuesday morning, Nugent slammed the idea of a vote for "Obama & vote for US Constitution hating SCOTUS crazies." Later, in a follow-up stream of tweets to his 100,000-plus followers, he announced he would "cry tears of blood for The Last Best Place" and called voters "soulless fools," and, "pimps whores & welfare brats."
Donald Trump........."called the election a "total sham and a travesty," and said that the "electoral college is a disaster for a democracy."
Trump then suggested to his nearly two million followers that the gridlock that has plagued Washington politics should continue during Obama's second term, saying, "House of Representatives shouldn't give anything to Obama unless he terminates Obamacare."
Victoria Jackson
" After Obama's victory, Jackson, in a flurry of Internet posts, announced the death of America, telling her followers that she "can't stop crying," and taking Christians to task for not voting.
"America died," she wrote on her Twitter feed. "I can't stop crying. America died."
Jackson also posted on her Facebook page an image of a tombstone that said, "RIP America."
Later, she tweeted, "Thanks a lot Christians, for not showing up. You disgust me."

I just googled myself and found a picture of me that is only in my personal photo
album! And it is a little risque' looking! It says it comes from Picasa albums so I checked my Picasa album online and that picture is not in there.
How do I get that thing off?????????
GREG PALAST - UAW Files Ethics Charge On Romney For Auto Loan Profits
&feature=youtu.beMore information:

For Mitt Romney, it's one scary Halloween. The Presidential candidate has just learned that tomorrow afternoon he will charged with violating the federal Ethics in Government law by improperly concealing his multi-million dollar windfall from the auto industry bail-out.
At a press conference in Toledo, Bob King, President of the United Automobile Workers, will announce that his union and Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) have filed a formal complaint with the US Office of Government Ethics in Washington stating that Gov. Romney improperly hid a profit of $15.3 million to $115.0 million in Ann Romney's so-called "blind" trust.
========================================
King added, "While Romney was opposing the rescue of one of the nation's most important manufacturing sectors, he was building his fortunes with his Delphi investor group, making his fortunes off the misfortunes of others."

Florida bomb squad detonates "suspicious" package found outside early voting site
Source: Yahoo
A Florida bomb squad has detonated two suspicious packages that were discovered outside one of the state's early voting stations on Saturday morning.
Voting was suspended until 2 p.m. on the final day of early voting, with a long line of reportedly upset voters waiting to cast their ballots. Early voting has been popular in Florida, with an estimated 3.9 million votes already cast before next week's official Election Day.
===============================
The AP says officials evacuated the library after the cooler and garbage bag were discovered. U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson has asked Gov. Rick Scott to issue an emergency order extending early voting hours through Sunday. But Scott has rejected similar requests and has not yet responded to Nelson's request.
In his letter to Gov. Scott, Sen. Nelson writes, "You should be doing everything in your power to make sure everybody has the chance to vote, and that their vote is counted. Instead, Gov. Scott, you are allowing people to be turned away and jeopardizing the credibility of Florida's election."

Never thought they may use bombs as voter intimidation.
Cher and Kathy Griffen ad to get out the vote. It's really funny.
Does anyone else wish there were polls about the Ryan/Rob Zerban congressional race?
I look every day and every day I see nothing! Do the polling places just not do it because he is "potentially" the VP? Well he is not going to be the VP and I don't want him in Congress either!
I've read about Rob Zerban and how he was doing an hour of charity work every day and how he just seems to be "with" the people. If anyone is in his district and can do some phone banking for him please do.
I would just love to see Paul Ryan out of a job. And I would love to see a good man in his place.
If things don't change in the next Presidential session with Congress there has to be a
concerted effort to inform the people of the Republicans successful attempt to block everything that President Obama has tried to do. Just look at this congressional rating from Real Clear Politics.

Republicans are winning by .5 Now how in the HELL can that be if people in the United States knew what they were doing these last 4 years? How could Paul Ryan be leading the incumbent Ron Zerban when he espouses Ayn Rand's theory of greed is good and writes a budget that cuts funding for all good services and gives tax breaks to the very wealthy?
The problem is there is no good concise, easy to read distribution of what these Republicans do. What should there be? A Republican quarterly? A Republican handout? That explains what exactly they are doing to the average Joe?
I don't know, but I know low information voters are what caused the majority in congress last time and what will probably still cause it this time. Because people vote with their guts and not with their heads. We need to learn to teach people how to vote with their heads. The easy way.
