People, this is over. Obama will be the president again. fivethirtyeight.com takes in TONS of polling data, and lays out how things will look. This site was right in 2008 with Obama, it was right in 2010 about the senate and other state races, and I have no doubt that they will be correct this time. Just looking at CNN, Fox or Yahoo's daily polls won't tell the full story.
Ask stefl1504 for a sig, even if you don't need one.
I gotta admit. I went to play skeeball instead of watch this one.
Largely because I imagine they just agreed on everything with romney saying "I'd do what he did, but sooner or better" and Obama saying "no you wouldn't."
How can someone agree so much when youve voted against 97% of his decisions?
First debate, romney says "introducing a timetable for military withdrawal is weak leadership and a poor decision strategically" tonight he says "we will put in place a date of withdrawal for 2014".
Everone is talking about the "the 80s called" quote, but one obama should have harped more about was the bayonettes. Our navy and af are smaller because they arent the weapons of the future. The future is cyberwarfare, corporatism, and hegemony. We will take the lead not by military power but by our cultural values causing unrest.
Its like a basic lesson in civ, you pass emancipation and every other country without gets unhappy citizens. Also the pyramids allows no period of anarchy in government change.
Anyway, the point is, we will rule by imposing regulations, cultural dominance, and providing a strong example for others to follow. Other countries want what we have in terms of rights and obama is clearly on the right side of it. You do it through diplomacy not military and we really dont need more boats and planes. That is a tired, outdated,strategy.

http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/ Rasmussan is so right wing that all there polls swing red. You kidding me. That don't have a great record. |
Rasmussan was by far the most accurate pollsters in the 2008 presidential election.
There national model is particularly strong.
I'd be amused to see the same people who cried about Bush stealing the election from gore defending the electoral college and vice versa.

Yeah. There is no need to make them up.
Anyway I can only laugh at people thinking this was a slam dunk for Obama. The debate was very very close and only got good in the last few minutes. Obama seemed to get mad a fair amount of times while Mit did his usual smirk. I really did like the closing statement though of one of them.

Yes.
Largely because the media tracks these people down to confirm the stories and find any discrepencies they say.
Politcians use this stuff all the time... and they really do meet these people... and they get too hard if they go out of there way messing something up.
