Sure the rabid idiots send out the same racist e-mails and seem to spam posting sites (normally 1 idiot has about 5 handles they claim are all different people saying the same stuff and some I think are pd to do this). But I just don't hear any overwhelming support for this puke ticket.
In fact, I hear more pukes that are skipping the vote or normal reasonable people to begin with, and switch their vote for Obama. After the last 4 years, it's not as if he's done crazy radical things like has been claimed.
I've actually had conversations with people who try that line and I ask what exactly "socialistic hell" did he institute in your life? I'm more of a democratic socialist and before the conversation concerning the world turned to "parties", I was extremely smart and should be President myself. How can I be so young and see such a rounded world view of connections with one another in a big picture way (33)... Which has been how I've seen things for a while- tweaking my perception as I age and meet and hear what it is people struggle with and fear.
It probably surprises no one here that if PBO and the Dems had passed a Medicare for All type of health care law, their would be little confusion and he would have never gotten such a challenge from the people. Shit, that's what 80% of this country wants now... Point out its socialism and OMG, the turn red and pink and huffy.
People in this country do like Big Govt, they just want it spread back to them easier. They want to get those food stamps when the boss cuts back the hrs or pay or job all together, but the red tape on the programs and the funding for programs make it impossible for them to qualify. They want their "free stuff" when bad shit happens, but when they r in need, many times, they still aren't "poor" enough to qualify for some programs because they "own" too much. That's what really pisses them off. They have to max out cc and/ or become bankrupt before they can get help. And when we push people down the ladder the people behind them fall further back down into hell America too.
Sadly, the pukes brought out Romulan money bags and he's so weird and out of touch... Most of even his base thinks that the moron should be taxed more.

(58,685 posts)There is a RW sock puppet on another board I frequent that has perpetrated a 16 page thread on Benghazi, spouting all of the Faux Noise talking points over and over ad nauseum. Won't hear any conflicting facts or opinion, quotes blogs and Fox, endlessly posts polling stats from Rass and Gallup and predicted Romney would win 300 EV.
It's quite tiring.
