I'm not saying I agree with him, just that his strategy worked for him.
Clinton was impeached. The "impeached" part was done in the House.

It was the Senate that did the "jury nullification" bit.

Romney will win big enough for there to be allegations from the libdemons that the minority vote was suppressed in some way.

Not a lot of energy from the hopeandchangers this time around...

I just got yelled at by the monitor at my polling place for blasting a Mormon Tab Choir CD on 11 out of my truck.

And then came this month's debate in Denver.

That night, the American people watched "the smartest guy in the room" struggle to put together a simple declarative sentence, and then ask the moderator to move onto another topic after Mitt Romney had given a strong statement about jobs and growth and tax revenues.

Some 67 million Americans were watching on TV. What they saw was the scene from the Wizard of Oz, when Dorothy's dog pulls back the curtain to reveal there is no wizard at all, just a man from the Midwest who pumped himself up into something far beyond his mortal self—and got the whole of Oz to believe it.
HH6 & I will be going together as for the last 30yrs after I bugout from work.

Get it done.

I sure won't argue with ya, ZD, regarding the word-game Romney got caught in during the debate. To me though, at this point, this has nothing to do with any other individual in this country and everything to do with the character of this President. The formerly withheld portion of that interview proves yet again that POTUS was not being forthright every time he spoke to the country about this issue.

I'll paste two links below:

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/w...ttack/1684503/

7:54PM EST November 5. 2012 - On the eve of the presidential election CBS News program 60 Minutes released a transcript of an interview with President Obama in which he said it was "too early to tell" whether the attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya was an act of terrorism.

The statement appears to contradict Obama's claim in a second debate with GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney that he identified the Sept. 11 attack that killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans as a terror attack the day after it happened.


http://www.realclearpolitics.com/vid...or_attack.html


Besides, sure is a poor sign of presidential leadership when intelligent Americans can't figure out what the hell a president is trying to say about an issue from one day to the next.

Do they just send pictures of their junk and middle fingers back and forth on Instagram to "throw down"?

Speaking of race related issues, below is a picture of a gem we received in the mail yesterday. I thought nothing of it until I looked again and saw the racial over tones. The kids t-shirts on the left say West Virginia, and the girls t-shirt on the right says Maryland. I saw it as making it seem like "the whites win" if you vote against it, and if you are white, you should feel sorry for the poor girl who just lost her education money if you vote against it. For those who don't know what "question 7" is, it's to allow table games and further construction of casino's in the Maryland area. In return, the tax money will go towards education (bull s*** by the way).

If the Daily Beast is any indication of how Obama will do today, he is in trouble.

They are already going ahead with the line that if Romney wins it is because the whites that vote for him are racist.

Oh, yeah. They've got the race card taped on their foreheads because Obama's defeat is so palpable.

In 2008, whites were "enlightened" when they voted for him...now that it looks like he is going to get the boot, many of those same whites that voted for him in 2008, who are now going to vote for Romney, are "racists"...

Considering that whites make up ~70% of eligible voters, I find the rantings of MSNBC, HuffPo, The Daily Beast, etc. farcical...

But maybe I didn't get the updated "racial code" dictionary from the Liberals, so maybe I just don't know that I'm a racist...perhaps I have some sort of racial anosognosia
