    Didn't realize there were that many old-timers. Ginsburg I knew, but I guess justices in their early 70s don't strike me as being "old"...relative to that particular job, anyway

    Interestingly, although I've never voted Democratic for Pres, I've also never (IIRC) voted Republican for a judge position. Hard-core conservatives, well, conservatives in general, scare the out of me when doffed in a black robe.

    Still, no way that would get me to vote for Obama. Of course, I'm not voting for Romney, either

    I'm done with the two established parties

    The professors who created the model, Ken Bickers from CU-Boulder and Michael Berry from CU-Denver, say it correctly forecast every winner of the electoral since 1980.
    Have/can Bickers and Berry do ent their claim?
    Seems like we would have heard this before the last election if by then they were truly up to 7 straight. Or were they too crushed to announce they knew Barrah was going to smoke McBain and Dingbat?

    Supposedly, there's always a bump both on the VP selection and when the Conventions start... we'll see if it fades like it did with Palin last election...

    I thought the bump usually came after the conventions? they haven't even started yet, tbh..i'm hoping it's a sign of more things to come.

    Is Paul Ryan going to use stimulus money for transportation to the convention?

    Dude, try not to be such a re ed ing be@ner and you might learn something ok?

    Intrade is actually a very accurate predictor...more accurate than any other polling agency and I'll tell you why. Money talks. When it comes to their money, people don't go with who they want to win but rather who they truly believe will win. Last election, intrade correctly predicted the winner of all 50 states plus district of columbia.

    Now this go round, Obama's chance of reelection has been slipping steadily ever since Romney won the GOP nomination. Over the weekend, just two days into the 2016 movie, he has dropped from 57.1% to 55.8%. And the Republican National Convention hasn't even started yet. Your man is in trouble, no bias.

    You guys think you 99%ers are gonna benefit from getting ed hard and deep by gecko and Ryan and a Repug Congress. The 2001-2008 disaster we are still staying paying for and dying for, and will be for decades, will look like kumbaya.
