Yup. If you look at the last two elections the actual results under-represents Democratic voters by 1-3%.

LOL that's funny... Reagan's first 4 years were considered average, he only received 53% of the vote during reelection. It was only during his 2nd term that approval went up.

This is a blatant lie, but not surprising from a Fox News right-wing talking point. Receipt in 1981 was $599 billion. After Reagan cut income taxes in 1982 and 1987-88, it only went up to $991 after 8 years, much of it due to the expansion of the economy - that's not DOUBLED LOL. In contrast Clinton raised taxes, and federal receipts went from $1154b to $2025b. Funny how that works huh? All the REAL data can be found on the Tax Policy Center website.

Reagan also increased our debt 150% (the first of many Republican debt increases) by cutting taxes. You're gonna praise that?

Are you serious? Look up the economic history of the free world since World War 2...

Yeah, all those people in modern 'socialist' Europe had it forced on them by the barrel of a gun...

You're not scoring any points with your sensationalistic and non-factual examples.

Now this bullshit Pitt game just dropped me in the hole $5,000. What do you thin should I hedge and just take the juice. Cuz Obama is -240 now. Thoughts?

You better hedge, Romney is going to win. Romney already has FL, NC, and VA wrapped up. If he wins Ohio, he wins it all. Right now he has an edge in Ohio and has pulled even in PA, which was unthinkable 2 months ago. He has held above 50% in the Gallup LV poll for 4 straight days now. No one who has polled above 50% in that poll less than 30 days out has ever LOST the election. Obama hasn't sniffed 50% yet. All the momentum is with Romney.

And here is something else you need to realize. The Clinton's HATE Obama with a passion. Hillary believes she is better off running in 2016 against an incumbent Romney rather than following up a 2nd Obama term. Yeah, I know Bill has been campaigning for Obama, but just the other day he said AT a campaign event, "[Obama] knows [the economy] isn't fixed yet." Hillary saying, "the buck stops with me" was another dig at Obama on Libya. Using that particular terminology from Harry Truman was a subtle way of letting her supporters know that Obama is the wrong guy for the job. I know TONS of Clinton loyalists and they are all either voting for Romney or not at all.

Obummer is going to lose. Book it. He is an empty suit...and an empty chair. DO NOT bet on Obummer. You WILL lose.

Btw alangrrbs, two have the debates have already taken place. What scares me is there are so many uninformed morons out there that Obama depends on. And if you read Time magazine, you ARE a moron.

you are a foolish man. I hope you have a felony

Yes Romney will be ten times the president obama could ever be but all he will do is buy us a little time before we hit economic armaggeddon. We are 16 trillion dollars in debt. Thanks obama. You had under 10 four years ago. We are on a sinking ship, we can slow it by patching holes but IMO it is too late to save us. China gets a new premier in a month and he is gonna want the trillion dollars we owe him and we cant pay it. China is a big bad black bookie.

On another note, i think its hilarious that people hate romney because he is rich. I would much rather have a guy who knows how to make money trying to fix my economy over a guy who was literally handed all of his money. Wake up

obama is a lifetime politician. he's taken government checks all his life

romney is quite different.

lmao, just left the Hilton here in Vegas and the line is now Obama -270 and climbing fast. Talked to book mangr. and he said he hasn't taken any Romney money in days! Guess Vegas doesn't know what you know.
