    To vote out an incumbent. That's the only voting I do these days....the challenger ticket straight ballot.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    I don't think there is much difference between Obama and Romney. Their top five campaign contributors are pretty much the same, neither is committed to reducing spending and getting the debt under control.

    I'm either writing in Ron Paul or I might go Libertarian even though I'm not a Gary Johnson fan.

    I think he will be better for business'...anybody who thinks obama is keeping business/jobs in the US is mistaken
    at least with Romney we might have a chance that he will help to promote business rather than tax them out of business or over seas...this is a tuff situation we are in,damned if you do and damned if you don't kind of deal.

    Romney got rich by shipping jobs overseas.

    Romney still hasn't given me one reason to vote for him. His platform is basically "I'm not him." He can't run on what he did as governor because he's changed his stance on everything he did.

    he is the greatest flip flopper of the last 50 years, so you know that he can never keep his promises. i want a fluid president. we had 8 years of bush who in the face of common sense and rationality continued down the same stupid path. the problem with romney is he is too fluid. the tea party is going to jerk him way to the right if he wants their support.

    "I'm very looking forward to a Republican being back in office," Jameson said while sipping champagne in a VIP room at Gold Club in the city's South of Market neighborhood. "When you're rich, you want a Republican in office."

    .....Retired adult film actress Jenna Jameson voiced support for presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney at a strip club Thursday, CBS San Francisco reports:

    "I'm very looking forward to a Republican being back in office," Jameson said while sipping champagne in a VIP room at Gold Club in the city's South of Market neighborhood. "When you're rich, you want a Republican in office."

    Jameson was being interviewed "exclusively" by a CBS reporter who was "on assignment" at "an event marking the 8th anniversary" of the San Francisco-area strip club.

    Jameson isn't the first in the business to praise Romney: Ron Jeremy recently called Romney "a good man" and "such an amazing father." In an interview with Yahoo News earlier this year, gay porn titan Michael Lucas said he would "of course" support the former Massachusetts governor.

    You should vote for Romney if you want the US to ruin several relationswith several foreign countries.
    (You saw what he did on his "world tour". 3 countries, 3 negatives.)

    You should vote for Romney if you want to raise taxes on the bottom 95% of income-earners.
    (His tax plan cuts takes for the top 5% and raises them for the bottom 95%)

    You should vote for Romney if you like his views, but don't care that he doesn't have an actual plan to accomplish them.
    ("I'm going to cut taxes, repell the healthcare mandate while keeping all of the expenses, increase Education, etc." He has turned into the most generic republican. He has not shown me any real plan to do what he says, he just uses the names of positives to bring up his popularity.)

    You should vote for Romney if you agree that you have the authority to say if 2 other people are not allowed to marry each other.
    (Whoever thinks that you can tell someone else who they aren't allowed to marry needs to go talk to a therapist.)


    You should vote for the INDEPENDENT if you don't like Ronmey, nor Obama. If you disagree with both, please still cast a vote for someone (independent, write in, etc). If you don't vote, you are seen as not caring. If you vote for a third party candidate, you are seen as unhappy with the 2 moajr choices. If enough people are unhappy then we can really make the parties see that changes need to be made.

    SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) - Porn star Jenna Jameson chose a familiar stage to make her endorsement for the 2012 presidential election Thursday night. At a San Francisco strip club, the former adult actress and stage performer said she was ready for a Romney presidency.

    "I'm very looking forward to a Republican being back in office," Jameson said while sipping champagne in a VIP room at Gold Club in the city's South of Market neighborhood. "When you're rich, you want a Republican in office."

    Jameson made the comments exclusively to a CBS SF staffer who was attending an event marking the 8th anniversary of the gentlemen's club.

    The Mitt Romney endorsement appears to be a departure from previous political leanings displayed by Jameson. The 38-year-old entrepreneur has previously appeared in People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals campaigns, and was a Hillary Clinton supporter in 2008, according to published reports.

    just your average republican :shifty: :lol:

    So what? :think:

    If Clint Eastwood endorsed Michelle Bachmann, or Britney Spears, would that make them good candidates?

    oh SHIT!

    guess i have to change my vote now.... emoticon...

    jenna jameson endorsed him too. there was a time when a christian conservative on moral grounds would reject the endorsement of a porn star, and they always reject that of the hollywood elite, but the gop needs all the endorsements they can muster up... so romney will gladly take what he can get...

    I guess she doesn't know that Romney has promised to crack down on pornography...her main source of income that made her very rich. Dumb is as dumb does.

    I dislike Romney, but this is probably one of the more "uneducated" and I'll add bigoted posts I've read on here in a while. Congrats.

    Winner.

    Neither candidate is stellar. I heard one guy say "We've got the white idiot and we've got the black moron" or something along those lines.

    It's all lip-service.

    Obama seems to be cooler with gay people.
    Romney seems to be the guy you vote for if you don't want Obama.

    Either way, taxes will be raised, wars will be fought, and the shit will hit the fan.
