And this is ridiculous. Republicans always talk about freedom, but they not really believe that shit. No reason why voting should be this hard. It is so obvious that Repugs are trying to make it hard. But the MSM doesn't call then out on it, or make it seem like both sides do it.
When Obama wins
I already know what the Repugs are going to say. They are going to say
that he has no mandate because he didn't wins as much as he did last time. Even though he will still receive more EV than Bush did in 2004 when he supposedly had a mandate.
OH/PA vs FL/NC
So the MSM continues to play the OH and PA are close, tie, toss ups memo, while not really mentioning FL or NC. Basically acting like those two states are clearly in the Romney column. But if you look at the averages in those 4 states Obama has a bigger lead in OH/ PA than does Romney in FL/NC.
Portman "Dems will work with Romney to solve nations problems"
So he is basically saying that Democrats care about Americans and will do what's best for America unlike Republicans who didn't do crap because it would have made Obama look good

TPM has it a tie?
Obama was +.4 last night and since then there has been PPP O+3, WSJ O+1, Ras tied, Politico tied, and wash post tied. That +.4 should have remained or up a little, not become a tie
Nelson leading Mack by +6
In a new poll by mason-Dixon, http://livewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/entry/poll-bill-nelson-leads-by-6-in-florida
but my question is who are these Nelson-Romney voters. Because Mason-Dixon had Romney +6 in a poll Friday
Why mid-term and off year elections are important
People that are voted in office in those years control the voting process in presidential election years. Unfortunately Democratic voters do not turn out in those elections.
Businesses and Fox News
I can't stand when I am forced to watch Fox News. I am At a car service station and of course they are blasting Fox. So cold outside, but I rather be outside on my iPad than watching that crap.
Damn CNN is terrible
Still trying to sell the close race memo. John King saying there are state polls for Obama and the are state polls for Romney
If Romney wins
Progressives are in for a hard 8 years. We already know how things are going to play out:
1. Next year around this time the economy will be doing very well because of Obama, but Romney will get all the credit.
2. Romney's approval rating will be sky high and he will be able to do whatever he wants and the weak Dems in congress will be submissive.
3. By time the 2014 mid terms Romney will be endorsing repugs and the dumb American public will vote them in.
4. Romney will get to appoint at least two SCOTUS justices and probably one that will tilt it to 6-3 in favor of the conservatives.
5. A war will be started and everyone will be wrapped in patriotism and anyone questioning Romney will be treated as anti-American.
6. Romney will win in 2016
7. By 2020 this country will be messed up again and people will realize that Repugs suck and vote in a Dem
8. But by that time the damage will be already done and the cycle will repeat itself
