One thing you can always count on every election cycle is people saying this election is the most important in our lifetime but this time it is true. These conservative nutters here, UK, Australia, Germany you name it. It is time to put a stop to this "movement" world wide.
If they were to get hold of power nothing will every be the same. Hold your nose if you have to but vote Obama.
Cheers!
