I Admit It. I Want To Beat Romney More Than I Wanted To Beat Ford, Reagan, And The Bushes

I can't wait for that pusillanimous, platitudinous, and prevaricating plutocrat to be sent back to Detroit, San Diego, or Boston or wherever he calls home.

while i believe in Obama's policies, my main motive here is that i know that racism is driving at least a little bit of the right's desire to push this guy out. i am in no way saying that the entire right or republican party is racist...i am simply stating that enough of them are to have this election be close. if Obama was white this election would be of Bush/Dukakis proportions already in the polls.

the negative stigma that often sticks with one term presidents is very large...and I sure as hell don't want our first black President to carry this stigma when he sure as hell doesn't deserve it.

When they asked him about his swag. I thought he walked like he had a load in his pants but I digress, he said "everybody in Texas walks like that."

Nixon was the most likeable Saint compared to Mitt

I have never seen such a shapeshifter in my life.

Now let's wrap this sucker up and win, by 1 vote, by a million I don't care. 270 and that is all I care about

Thought I would just dislike him and have no respect for him ------ but I now HATE him more than the others combined.

Surprises me that I have this reaction.

Bush was like the bad guy. It was almost cartoonish in the dichotomy between good and evil. I always imagine a Vader and Tarkin thing with Bush/Cheney
