When one days, "Romney is a liar", the response is, "all politicians lie.". I prefer to characterize his flip flops as confusion. Remember, wife Ann worries about "his mental well-being". It would be nice if all would focus on his mental capaxuty rather than his lack of integrity.

You portray him as a liar and RW'ers will tell you Obama lies.
I'd rather say he's confused and befuddled.
I like confused liar, though.

LYING is a mormon trait, not to be confused with political lies.

For mormons, lying is a means to an end. Whatever it takes. Romney used it in his religion, obviously used it in his business to game the system, and now on the campaign trail.

ROMNEY IS A FUCKING LIAR!

Most likely response is Obama lies.

They don't care or don't believe you. So have fun with them.
Tell him/her he's confused-47% yes, 47% double yes, 47% not really; abortion no, abortion yes, abortion no;
ObamaCare repeal, ObamaCare well not all of it, ObamaCare repeal all
Believe in America-outsource jobs to Communist RED China
and so on. BTW, as I type this he's probably lying again about something.
Joe laughed at Ryan. Paint Willard as befuddled which he clearly appears to do.

The race has to be close so they can steal it. 19 states without exit polls? Voter intimidation/suppression?

As sad it is, I see the bastards taking the election.

Obama is up in Ohio. the Republicans had to STOP early voting...they "failed". They passed the Voter ID law in Pennsylvania to suppress the vote. It was ruled unconstitutional...they failed "again". They even PULLED OUT of PA. The only state they have a good chance of stealing is Florida and any other Battleground States where the race is CLOSE. Even if they steal FL and every other "toss up" Obama will get his 270 with OH, PA, &WI. Unemployment is still down, gas is lower, and forclosures have decreased. All in Obama's favor. To "guarantee" his win means we still have to work like he's 5 pts behind...

he isn't the perfect candidate...and not liberal enough for my taste, but, head and shoulders above what is being offered from the other side.

I do have to say that everytime someone locally says that they are voting for Romney--I say I am voting for Obama...so we just cancelled each other out, hahaha.

You have NO idea how furious this makes the believers,lol.

Washington is not in play, but I have called three relatives and two friends today, and will be calling another three (whom I didn't actually speak to the first time) later. These 8 people are in Ohio, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Virginia and Iowa. I suggest that you do the same. The long-distance charges are worth it!

Or shall I say smoke and mirrors. People should take these crazy polls as motivation to vote early like never before. And vote like their lives depended on it. I'm encouraging all my contacts on social media, work, & church to do so. I'm voting next week. GObama/Biden!!!!

Get Out the Vote. Encourage early voting. If someone you know is on the fence or lackluster about all the ballot initiatives, take them with you and ask them to just vote for Democrats. That's painless, in their eyes. Leave the rest blank if they don't know. And if they can't do that much, just have them pick Obama and a few democratic senatorial/governor candidates.

If we all vote, it'll be a landslide, simply by the numbers alone.

In December the rogue planet Nibiru will slam into the Earth and destroy all of human civilization according to reports from unnamed sources and ancient civilizations.

Besides causing the mass extinction of most of life on earth this catastrophic event will create stellar material for a future best selling novels and top grossing movies.

I am still worried. Despite all Ryan and Romney have done to screw up..there are still a lot of Republicans who will DO ALL THEY CAN to disrupt, cheat, steal this election. I understand the President will have lawyers on the ground, like he did last time.. BUT I DO NOT want to see a repeat of 2000. I do not want to hear about how voting machines flipped votes in Romney's favor.. I do not want to hear about how 3,000 Democratic votes were found in a landfill uncounted.

This election needs to be fair and untainted..I know that is not entirely possible.. but damn it, if we are going to win, we need a huge outpouring of Democratic votes.
