Romney's been caught wrong-footed at every turn. I can't figure out why he's not farther behind. Given everything that's happened (Mormon issue, taxes, Bain Capital, etc) and the amateur campaign team he's burdened with, it's surprising that he's not 10 points behind in the polls.

Good question... It's probably a statistical model, but I doubt that it's curve-fit to a Romney win. The model is being published in a peer-reviewed journal. The first thing they'd look at is whether or not the model capitalizes on sampling error or is fit to the data to produce any...

How can you be "more accurate" than 100% accurate?

When I went to UC Berkeley back in the 1980s, Asians were about 10% of California's population and almost 50% of the Berkeley students. In my science and math classes it wasn't unusual for 70% of the class to be Asian.

Immigration Officials Describe Border Chaos Resulting From Admin's Amnesty Policy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xb2_3R6oHSQ Border Patrol and Ice Officials now ordered by the Obama administration to release any illegal alien (including those charged with crimes of violence) who claims to...

Border Patrol Agents Taught to "Run Away" and "Hide" http://www.local2544.org/ In another nauseating series of "Virtual Learning Center" brainwashing courses that Border Patrol agents are forced to sit behind a computer for hours and endure, we are now taught in an "Active Shooter" course...

When someone puts up a million dollar reward for copies of Obama's transcripts they will miraculously show up. I sent an email to Trump suggesting this strategy. No reply so far.

Colorado is a second-rate school. Obama went to Harvard. Therefore Obama wins. Irrefutable logic.

Which is why it won't happen.

"Hoping it will go away" is a prescription for failure. We have to fight the FTT in Congress. That's where tax laws are written. 1) Get educated: http://financialtransactiontaxes.com/ 2) Contact your congressional representatives and make clear to them that you oppose the FTT and why you...

Why does that matter? Warren Buffett is a member and his handicap has never been below 20. He often bragged about being the worst golfer at Augusta... And guess what? He's still the worst golfer at Augusta.

I played golf with her at a charity event a couple of years ago. I think her declared handicap was 14. EDIT: Clarification -- We played at the same event. We were not in the same foursome.

Describes my neighborhood exactly. Half my neighbors had "Dissent is Patriotic" stickers on their Prius bumpers when Bush was President. Those stickers suddenly disappeared when Obama was elected. Now, anyone who disagrees with the President is a racist -- no opposing points of view are allowed.

Of course he has them. The president owns and operates the US Treasury, including the IRS. He has seen everything.

Most fraud goes undetected, unsolved and unpunished. What we see is just the tip of the iceberg.

Someone from ET (a French speaker, of course) should make the request for the FTT data from the French Ministry of Finance and post the results here.

It's an interesting set of circumstances, but there's no evidence of what actually happened (e.g., if the passport file was changed). Without specific evidence, this story goes nowhere.

Maybe that explains why they have so few members -- less than 5,000 at last count. They're pretty close to irrelevant. You're more likely to get killed by lightening (over 50 killed last year) or drown in your own bathtub (over 400 last year) than you are to be killed by a member of the KKK.

The "they're-really-good-kids" excuse is a classic example of parents refusing to take responsibility for their failure. I have two kids, 11 and 13, and there's no way either of them would ever be wandering around unsupervised. And if they committed an unprovoked act of violence against...

We agree. I've sent out over 200 hundred faxes and emails over the past year. I would add to your list: 6. Contact all your brokers, educate them and push them to take a public stand on the FTT. 7. Contact fellow traders, friends and family members, educate them and encourage them to...
