Bachmann drops out

[Blake]

As for the question about Perry...as governor is a scary conservative running in the primary, a moderate in the general election, and pragmatist as governor.

lolwtfwut....?

Are you drunk?

[ElNono]

Oh, I think just about any candidate on the republican side is less of a proponent of "more government is the answer" than Obama is.

What gives you that impression? I mean, Ron Paul I can see... but the rest are as status quo as they come, IMO.

[Wild Cobra's Surgeon]

The vote was 52.9% to 45.7%. Blacks turned out in probably double the numbers they normally do and was so close to 100% voting for Obama, it was ridiculously racial.

I'm pretty sure the outcome would have been different if Obama was white, especially when you include the whites who also wanted to see history made.

Hmmm...the Lithium doesn't seem to be working like it used to. Come by the office early tomorrow and i'll start you on a generous loading dose of Thorazine.

[ElNono]

Whites who "wanted to see history made" with a black president are people who'd vote democrat anyway.

Please link me a source regarding your conjecture that "double" the amount of black people showed up and voted.

He pulled it out of his ass... One could just as easily make the claim that hispanics hate blacks and would've turned out en masse to vote against Barry.

And hispanics (16%) are a bigger portion of the US population than blacks (12%).

Fortunately, I don't really give a what the forums intellectual midgets think.

I do for entertainment purposes.

Thanks for your entertaining response to my simple question.

Well, the fact that they are universally against the bas ized nationalized health care plan that got passed, for starters...

Probably the same types, but they had more motive to actually vote than in previous elections.

Please link me a source regarding your conjecture that "double" the amount of black people showed up and voted.

First of all, I said "probably double" which is cleanly an opinion. I think the facts of complaints of their not being enough voting machines in black neighborhoods is proof enough, since they are allocated by past voting history.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

I laugh at the thought that the GOP represents small government. Starting as many wars as possible and keeping drugs outlawed for no reason isn't exactly small government.

[ElNono]

Well, the fact that they are universally against the bas ized nationalized health care plan that got passed, for starters...

You mean they say they're universally against it. Well, I'm not even sure Romney even fits that criteria, tbh.

Somehow I get the feeling that didn't stop you from re-electing Bush Jr after they passed Medicare Part D...

50% of the black population doesn't have enough numbers to make a 20% swing, which is what you need to win the election.

So you can (reluctantly) scratch that one off your list.

cowboy playing the "i'm not a racist" race card. lol

So it was mere conjecture and was not based off any facts or data.

Glad we cleared that up.

I propose a few forum members make it part of their respective sigs.

[spursncowboys]

Or VP pick.

Bingo. For her to get out so soon.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

lol the Bachmann lovers delusional enough to think any sane candidate would pick that wacko as the VP

your ty bible thumping house wife is about to be as irrelevant as your previous bible thumping house wife is now

[CosmicCowboy]

Go for it.

I defy you to ever find a racist quote from me...

It would be like searching for a needle in a strawstack.

[ElNono]

The big problem is that your average republican these days preach "down with socialism! (but save medicare, social security, etc)".

Basically, they want the socialism, they just don't want it called that.

[Bill_Brasky]

Nothing says "small government" like victims of rape being forced by the government to have a kid

Or thinking that we should be telling people who they can marry.

Or wanting to ban pornography(Santorum).

The guy's aversion to human sexuality is downright creepy. I give it 6 months till he's caught blowing some dude at a rest stop.

There was only a 7.2% difference in the popular vote. A 3.6% swing would be an effective tie.

No...

I see a distinct difference between caring for our elderly and handicapped vs. welfare for able bodied people.

Correct. I see your comprehension of the English language is starting to improve.

[spursncowboys]

I think regardless of if she was convinced, or if she came to the decision herself, she decided that America didn't need another McCain candidate where the conservative vote was split with Huckster and Mitt.
