"There's just no way" and look at what we got.
They aren't even HIDING that they're tracking and disenfranchising voters. They are doing that shit in the plain light of day. This race will tighten because the media needs the ratings.
We can't be complacent. GET YOUR GUN PERMIT TODAY IF YOU LIVE IN A VOTER ID LAW STATE. I honestly think it's the only way you will be able to vote at all.

I agree that we can't get complacent, and we need to work hard, but Bush was leading at this point eight years ago ... Romney is not in the position Bush was in back in 2004.

(10,291 posts)that rich and it's all smoke and mirrors. Don't get me wrong, I want Obama to win, but we can't get complacent. Bush seemed implausible at one point too.
malaise
(268,693 posts)I don't see Rmoney winning but I am worried about the voting machines since they actually made us know they were pushing voter suppression. Still you can only steal a close election.

(10,291 posts)I mean, if they can steal it (they will certainly try) even by the slightest margin, they are going to scream MANDATE and we will be in for it.
