    Wait until he picks his running mate. Obama's plan to divide and conquer is not going to work. I will put money on it.
    Thought of Romney in there is scary. He's way too rich to be president. His way of thinking has been completely warped by his wealth, and isn't fit to run a country where most people struggle to pay bills. I don't believe that he's capable of understanding at all what people have to deal with; he will be all about corporations and ensuring that money is more important than anything else. Not even his fault, really. He just can't make his brain do it I don't think. But whatever. The US is fucked either way I think... I just don't like Republicans for things other than the economy, namely the environment, abortion/women's rights, bringing religion to politics, the death penalty, government funded science research, free speech, international diplomacy, a health care system that works only for the rich ... etc etc etc. So actually, Republicans scare the shit out of me. And I'm not even American.

    I love when Canadians have an opinion on American Politics. You generally wrong!

    I don't think so... we have access the exact same information as you do and we pay attention. Also, I live a 25 minute drive from the boarder. I'm hardly oblivious to what's going on the US. Canadians have a vested interest in American politics since we're so tied to the American economy and cultural influences, so many of us know what we're talking about as much as any American.

    Not cheap at all. It's interesting that Goldman Sachs is Romney's number one contributor and Obama's number two... Lots of money involved there

    yea, I don't believe a working man/woman will ever have a chance at that job.

    I think if dumps Biden he stands a chance.. Hillary would be his best option but I don't think she wants it. She should have been President but was blindsided by the Obama machine. Brilliant campaign but didn't live up to the promises

    It wouldn't say much for Obama to get rid of the VP he supported and touted as his partner...would it? Honest question.

    And yeah, I could see a Romney/Rubio ticket happening.

    well you know as we are all aware there are times in our lives when the partner were with isnt doing it for us anymore, and a change is needed. the strong thing to do is admit youd be stronger without that partner and move on.

    Not an issue. Biden would just say he didn't want to do it anymore and gracefully bow out.

    True, what both of you said. I just think it'd look bad for both of them.

    (btw, does Biden do anything gracefully? :mrgreen: )
