"People vote Obama because they want stuff"

This old man looks bitter as hell and looks a defeated man. If I could have voted I would have voted for Obama and don't want anything.. A lot of people I know voted for Obama and don't want 'stuff'. Bill is off the mark.. America and the western world are a 'handout' society whether it's tax breaks, welfare, inheritance, SSI, Medicare, student aid, reitrement fund.. Every class in America gets something they don't necessarliy work for. The far right need to get over this notion and quickly otherwise it will cost them many more elections.

The notion that people vote so that other people pay more and they don't? That's not a notion, it's a reality.

But it is only 1 of the items on the list.

True. It's all free and magic.

I'm still amazed that a campaign was run based on the single collective notion that they were going to raise taxes.

And that the candidate won. :fp:

They are part of his voters for sure. No idea how big. But I think it is wrong to just dismiss it. It's a fact. People that pay no income tax and receive all their support ($) from the government (tax payers) get to vote to and it's no surprise who they vote for. The guy/lady that says he/she will give them more.

I know it'
s not a big deal to anyone because it's not their money. But this election just cost every family that makes $250,000 over $10,000 extra next year in taxes. So they vote for who will "give them more" (not take away more really). Not a surprise.

It's funny that the party that recognizing the unsustainable nature of oil and that it will be tapped out the best is the same party that applies that same logic to taxes and $...weird.

I don't watch tv, but man, that sounds like I really should! And Palin? Really? They resorted to having her on, huh?

Throw in a dash of moderation, modernization and present a slightly more consistent and transparent 'bigger picture'... and things may have gone much better.

yeah they spoke to her from Alaska at about 8:30 in which she was already trashing the president's next 4 years and blaming the anti-bain commercials.. it was pure entertainment and much more exciting then CNN.

he needed to do what harper did up here ... focus the discussion on the current state of affairs ... offer very little on his own plan except the trustworthy tax cuts ... and whatever the heck you do ... stfu on social issues like abortion and gay marriage ... the people that are pro-life and anti gay marriage are already going to vote for you ... all you do there is alienate the moderates ... granted, having a bunch of tea party folk running for senate is not gonna help but still ... the formula is rather simple ... say a whole lot of nothing and it would have been in the bag for him ...

Romney/Ryan 2012 was essentially the Republican version of Kerry/Edwards 2004.

We'll digest the numbers on who voted for who in the next few days, but I'm sure you'll see that in blue states, people making over $250,000 went with Obama.

It's like the negative ads keep running. C'mon- let's move ahead.

I don;t think Mitt is a bad candidate, I think the party made him a bad candidate. BUt I agree on the campaign. Obama's machine proved it's worth yet again. They nailed it.

Well, when you pick a color and stick with it for life reality doesn;t matter. I'm talking more about the people that don't have their next vote planned 100% already.

i think my assertion prior to the campaign that mitt represented the worst characteristics of politician came through ... a sell out, liar, unintelligent and a fraud ... all those traits played a part in him losing an easily winnable election ...

Well shocking that I don't agree with you 100%...but I will agree with the sell-out part. I say an article on cnn.com about the religious right losing it's grip...I can only hope.

I will give Obama credit for one thing, next election, I'm going to do more to be apart of the process in the real world. He talked about uniting....didn;t do it, instead drove a wedge (sure republicans in congress helped and I wouldn't vote for them either). Then he did it again after this election. Really? I call bullshit Mr. President. Man, I hope the Dems run Biden and the repubs run a moderate...otherwise I'm going to be figuring out how to help a 3rd party candidate.
