The best advice I can give you would be to hide in the closet and watch as Conservatives are swept into office with the help of blue dog Democrats. Same as in 1980.
There is one thing missing from your 1980 analogy, where is your Reagan? I tell you one thing, Romney ain't no Reagan. Bob Dole probably had more charisma than Romney. If you put Romney next to a cardboard box effigy of himself in a room, you couldn't tell the difference.... that's how fake he is. The man lacks a soul.

Watching the debate I could see nothing but hate, vitriol, and animosity coming from both the candidates and the audience. I don't see how any American who is not a Republican could be impressed by this.

Republicans are just downright full of excrement. It's just always negativity coming from them: from the factory made career politician Mitt Romney, to the token comedian Herman Cain, to the fallen angel Rick Perry, to the half-obese-worn-out-past-his-time pol Newt Gingrich, to the inconsequential quaker state homohobe Rick Santorum, to the crazed beauty Michelle Bachmann, to last but not least... the perennial debate space filler Ron Paul... They all proved why America is lucky to have Barack Obama as President.

None of the Republican candidates are ready for prime time especially when matched against Obama. They have no vision for the future, nothing positive to say to the country, no real solutions for the nation's problems. All they offer are scripted sound bites and the same b.s. Republican ideas that screwed up this country in the first place. If I was becoming complacent about voting for Obama next year, this was the stimulant that I needed. The worst thing that could happen to America short of a terrorist attack is putting a Republican back into the White House.

Hands down, the post of the day

Perfect timing - Peggy Lee singing "Is That All There Is" is playing on the radio.

Who would want to pay you for your vote when it isn't worth zilch? Obama won without your worthless vote the first time around and he will win without it again.

Hahaha...Ooo...yeah, we are all indeed lucky. Let's see, which new country shall we invade today? How about Congo? Mongolia? Brunei? Papua New Guinea?? Wait, Uganda sounds good. Let's send some of our troops there and get them killed! What fun!

Obama all the way. To vote for any of these Republican clowns just shows how much of a gullible, "I get rev'ed up by nothing but hate and fear". Their whole platform is based on it.

Not only that, I find them an embarrassment to America. People who are on the fence about Obama need only take one look at the GOP field to realize that they have no choice but to re-elect our current President.
