    What is so disappointing is that this thing should be a slam dunk for Romney.
    Says a lot about the collapse of the USA.

    Has nothing to do with Intrade, my belief why Obama was a shoe in always had to do with the fact that the media is simply far too corrupt for Romney too win.

    Look at the amount of time they have dedicated to the Romney 47% video, then look at how much time they spend on Obama's racist rants that just came out the other day....

    The other day i actually saw them talking about a poll where the number had went from 30 to 59% of Americans now believe that the economy is actually on the headed in the right direction. I think it was the same day that next years GDP numbers got revised downwards, after three straight months of jobs misses

    Bottom line is the media refuses to cover Obama's fuck ups at the same time they spend a week on the slightest mis wording by Romney. The only way for Romney to win under these circumstances is if he neuters obama in the next 2 debates, cause thats really the only fair shot he ever gets in the media.

    It's not the media.
    (That's just a ploy by FOX News.
    BTW---There's no media outlet more mainstream than FOX.)
    It's the stupidity of the people in the USA.
    We all have access to the same media outlets and information.
    Why is it some of us understand that Romney is the best choice, between these two?
    Got to be intellect, no?

    A blowout debate in a very close race is more than significant. The money will flow and the undecided voters will congeal around the man they perceive as having showed leadership.

    I would say that this is a real race now and that Mitt Romney has a decent chance.

    The debates to follow will involve foreign policy and Mr. Obama will likely be eviscerated over his complete failure regarding Iran and the Middle East, relations with European allies and his failure to deal with China.

  10. Evoked memories of Reagan, really? Either you're joking or you're getting old and your memory is fading. Or hell maybe my memory is fading. From what I remembered Reagan was inspirational and very likeable, even to those who voted against him, Romney is neither. And Reagan had a smooth slow delivery, would pause while speaking to let his point sink in and had a great sense of humor, Romney not quite.
