  1. Who cares about the polls, the real one will be soon enough.

  2. All that wasted money on trying to convince the hate Obama people to switch. The real independents will likely go towards Obams, per latest polling numbers, but yes, the real thing is in November.

    We can only hope the 1% doesn't buy the election with their poll tax type voter suppression.

    I'm an independent. Having voted for Obama the last time, I will be switching this time.

  5. I'm an independent and if I vote it'll be for Obama. I'm in Texas so I might not waste the time going to the ballot box. The outcome is secure for the reps here.

    I have trouble understanding why?

    Are you in favor of any thing Obama did for the economy.

    Do you like the work he did on infrastructure or shovel ready jobs.

    Did you like the crony payoffs of stimulus

    The crack down on too big to fail or the criminal actions taken by wall street to precipitate the crisis?

    Did you like what he did protecting our constitutional freedoms?

    Did you like the true Medical reform and single payer or do you like the fact he preserved insurance co revenues?

    How about our improved status in the world.

    Debt restructuring?
    Simplified tax code?
    Transparency in Govt?
    The quelling of all the race baiting and class warfare rhetoric?
    The elmination of negative ads
    The cleaner oceans
    The cleaner air
    The lower reliance on overseas oil
    Jobs

    really what could anyone but a govt sucker support?

    This should be a softball - I think you should do your best to hit it out of the park.

  7. Healthcare


    1.No more Emergency room freeloaders

    2. Prevents insurance companies from raising our premiums unless they have a material reason to do so

    3. Prevents insurance companies from discriminating against people and kids for pre-existing conditions

    4. Prevents insurance companies from taking your premiums your entire life and then dropping you after your illness gets too expensive for them

    5. Allows kids to stay on their parents insurance plans until they are 26

    6. Closes the donut hole for seniors and saves them thousands


    7. Gets rid of co-pays for preventive measures like X-Ray exams, flu shots, Mammograms, and other cancer screening measures

    8. Sets up federal exchanges so people can buy affordable healthcare plans

    9. Allows for families of 4 making under 88K a year to receive tax credits for affordable healthcare plans under the newly setup exchanges.

    10. Puts in place the 80/20 law. This says that insurance companies now must use 80% of your premiums (not what you pay for administrative costs, but money you pay for healthcare should you need it) on healthcare costs and if they don't then they must give you a rebate for the difference either in the form of a rebate check or lowering your premiums.

    1. healthcare already destroying econmic recovery at the cost of trillions and our constitutional rights.

    rating... too soon to say for sure but... perhaps worse pieced of legislation in history...

    2. The economy... temporary relief at the expense of massive devaluation of the dollar. this is all we got with 2% interest rates? and trillions of dollars of give aways. Someone needs to understand the private sector is concerned about the massive tax increases being shot at them.

    jobs... a few produced at the cost of about 300,000 per job.
    many of the jobs showing up in your stats are statistical jobs which probably do not even really exist.

    what we do know is after 4 years... we have been in the longest economic disaster since the great depression. and we are still down millions of jobs.

    Not all was obama's fault but he has had 4 years to fix and he has been a flop.

    3. 3. Foreign policy...

    a. bin laden
    - thanks to bush's policies
    -. the military and Obama save his own us - half approval of operation.
    - that the military forced Obama into giving his covered his ass approval.

    b. Russian pleading to wait to next year.
    c. apologizing all over the world.
    d. seen as ineffective all over the world.
    e. egypt
    f. iran
    g. afghanistan
    h. complete failure to be a worth ally for Isreal.

    Seriously other than partial credit for bin laden the best he let wall street design the health care law that has his name on it.
