Even if McCain wins all the states that are leaning his way and ALL the swing states (CO, FL, OH, MO, NEVADA, NC) and Obama just wins the states that are leaning his way, Obama still wins. Things aren't looking good for McCain. Haha. Good.

Errr. Im not going to disagree with you. I would just like to point out that the people who vote republican hedgies, CDS traders, CEOs, etc have a vested interest as well...probably much larger than any other demographic constituency. Considering that the CDS market alone if worth tens of...

There was an article on CNN about it today. I just dont understand..its not a very difficult process. Checking a box and then counting them.

How can there be "glitches"? How can there be delays and problems. I could sit there with a pad of paper and a pen and put hash marks as the people told me their vote, yet the computers can record them properly? What the hell. What can be so damn hard about it?

Sounds good one the face of it, but I think the problem is far more complex than just saying "oh flat tax works perfectly". I dont disagree with the premise, just that it would be more complicated that you describe and may or may not work.

Err. You're an idiot. I argue with Pabst all the time. Its all in good humor, and I know his reasons for hating Obama. Its ironic that you accuse me of having a "one size fits all" approach when in fact thats not at all my thinking. You assumed it was because..well...you're an idiot, and didn't...

Haha nice. I doubt you would for anyone that may adversely affect your net worth, no matter what the cause :)

Haha Pabst. Obama is going to be at civic center park in Denver Sunday, about 2 blocks from my apartment. I'll send you pics and tell him "hey" for you if you want! :p

Its in the OPINIONS section. There really isn't much news and facts in that section...deceptive as its title may be...

you all never cease to amaze me.

Sigh. Nice argument. No wonder our country is going down the shitter.

Looks like the free market is saying you're SOL! http://data.intrade.com/graphing/jsp/closingPricesForm.jsp?tradeURL=https://www.intrade.com&contractId=376101

Nah Dave, don't sweat it! there is this cool thing called debt..it pays for EVERYTHING!

As I mentioned before, on a per household basis the top 20% quintile receive the second most on government spending, next to the bottom quintile...and its not by much either, the 2 are very close.

just saying, the number one job of a politician, good or bad, is to get elected.

ron paul couldnt even win the primary.

Sounds good, I didnt mean to imply anything by that example, it was just an arbitrary scenario I used to illustrate that entitlements do have their place and that its a complex problem.

regarding entitlements, no one can deny that there is a problem. It comes down to this: I think we can all agree that we, as tax payers, are taken advantage of by a great number of people, and also that entitlements can engender the very laziness it sometimes has to pay for. However I...

I've never put anyone on ignore. But I have checked and you have not made a single valid point in the entire political section. If you had I wouldnt mind putting up with you just so I get exposed to the good point you have once in a while. But you never do. Literally. In all the threads you've...

Neo, you arent allowed to vote.
