Obama doesn't need Penssylvania, Georgia, North Carolina, or Ohio to win. McCain needs all 4 just to have a chance, but he won't be getting Pennsylvania or Ohio.

 

Actually, Obama's winning without those two, too. He has 311, without NC or GA. Even if he loses PA and OH, he still has exactly 270, with out any toss ups.

I should have been clearer.  I meant Obama doesn't need a single one of those states.  Or a single toss-up for that matter.  With his solid leads (5% and up) he already won.

It doesn't help us either that Obama has outspent us over 51%.

Yeah it can't help that he actually has a plan for the economy and cares about the middle class either. Geesh, he sure is a ruthless unfair candidate isn't he?

 

When u tax capital gains, corps pass increase prices on to the consumer. It is economics 101. In summation, you are hurting the long term growth of free markets by voting BO.

 

I'd vote to kill the free market if I had the chance.  Survival of the fittest works for hungry fish and monkeys, but it's not good for humans.  Thanks to that one tiny flaw in Alan Greenspan's free market ideology, we might actually have a REAL free market soon, in which we're only bartering with guns and gasoline and have no currency.
