Better pick than McCain's bubble-head, but GOP still comes up short. Brace yourself for four more years of Obama.

Women weren't voting that way anyway if they were wildly pro choice Seniors like that their garbage isnt touched He's better looking than biden and a shitload smarter. If this election is about equality of outcomes, social issues, and class warfare, and fighting corporate greed then obama wins. if this comes down to the economy then ryan wins the day for romney. people i know are desperate for work. our economy just sucks. if obama is in again we will have gridlock with a worsening economy and two sides squabbling incessantly. with the gop in you'll get some things changed, good and bad.

Which way you think a girls gonna go...tweaking a worthless budget plan all night with an uptight dweeb hell-bent on making the rich richer while kicking impoverished people to the curb OR a non-apologizing freak who appears to be high and having the time of his life up there at the podium? I hate to do this, but I might actually have to vote for Mitt. It's a win/win. On the one hand, if his magic works, great, I win. On the other hand, after all the rioting dies down and all the major cities stop smoldering and I can get a handle on the Mitt-apocalypse, then I can say "told you he was full of garbage" as I scavenge for food.

This pick scares the living crap out of the lefties. Care to elaborate ? Paul Ryan has only passed two bills into law in more than a decade ( He has been in Congress for about 13 years) <QUOTE> July 2000 --> a bill that renames a post office in his district. the post office on 1818 Milton Ave. in Janesville, Wis., is now known as "Les Aspin Post Office Building." December 2008, with legislation to change the way arrows (as in bows and arrows) are hit with an excise tax. Specifically, his bill amended the Internal Revenue Code to impose a 39-cent tax per arrow shaft, instead of a 12.4 percent tax on the sales price. The bill also "includes points suitable for use with arrows in the 11 percent excise tax on arrow parts and accessories." <UNQUOTE> LINK

His economic policies aren't working now and so surely it won't work if he gets a 2nd term...why would anyone in their right mind trust him and his clan?...blind ignorant loyalty I guess...lol I strongly believe the majority of Americans will not reward an incumbent president a 2nd term knowing he and his clan failed miserably in their 1st term...as an independent I certainly won't vote for him!. Romney and Ryan in 012!

Once the surge of energy from the base (folks that would vote for him anyway) settles down & everything is laid out, the woman's vote & elderly in key states will get it done for Obama. Gonna get nastier & should be interesting (especially the debates where I expect Obama & Ryan to come out on top in their respective 1's) , but its Obama for 4 more -

We're really fucked as a country if this is the determining factor in this election. Unfortunately this sort of this actually does have an impact on how people vote.

On the other hand, the informed voters who realize Obama has been pissing on their foot and telling them it is raining, will get get up very early on election day to put him on the unemployed side of this economy that he did nothing to improve.

Not good for Romney/Ryan... And noone from either side would have the economy in any better shape at this point. Maybe less debt, but no better job & unemployment wise -

Vast arrays of competing and differing goals exist. Romney-Ryan might be enthusiastic about attempting to lure the citizenry with aggressive tactics that address the state of the economy, but this does not necessarily deliver a knockout blow. The Democrats surrendered power to G. W. Bush in spite of having presided over an almost unparalleled rise in national prosperity and living standards. In the U.K., the conservatives were re-elected in the early 80s and early 90s, even though both elections followed instantaneously after the most severe economic downturn in the land since the 30s. The national unemployment figures were toxic, yet the govt was re-elected. Political marketeers are on familiar terms with voter predilection, but if the size of the political market is the % of the electorate who cast their vote, the amount of those abstaining from the ballot box on the day could be decisive in determining this election. In the U.K. general election in the late 90s, the conservatives surrendered power in a demoralizing whitewash, ending eighteen-years of conservative govt. All the polls advocated prior to the election that Tony Blair would guide the Labour Party into Downing Street, but the magnitude of the victory was a shock for the pollsters. Countless scores of Conservative followers, who were disenchanted by their inevitable overthrow from govt, did not make an effort to vote on the day. Consequently, the pundits failed to forecast correctly the complete size of the market. We must account for the disenfranchised citizenry who will not inconvenience themself in voting on the basis that both Obama and Romney are roads to insolvency. To the general population, the political market contains two very identical but rival trademarks, each renowned from the other by virtue of distinguishing ideological features, however, it is uncommon to encounter groups on the ideological spectrum that can process complex economic information and to process it proficiently to arrive at the optimal choice. drJ, if you want to witness the death of left-wing politics in a country, take a holiday to Australia.

Normally, voters consider party and policies more important than candidates. Many voters don't know candidates but just blindly vote for everyone from party.

Yes, their policies can influence the economy, but there is no proof whatsoever that anything Romney wants to do or may do will create any more jobs or better the overall economy than Obama. And with Romney and no regs at all on the financial sector, imo we run a greater risk of more war/military involvement & another financial disaster which sure as hell would further hurt the economy.

Especially in this day of outsourcing & a global economy. Excuse for Obama's failures. there is no proof whatsoever that anything Romney wants to do or may do will create any more jobs or better the overall economy than Obama. Actually there is, it is called the Reagan Presidency. And with Romney and no regs at all on the financial sector And of course this is a total fabrication. Romney has never, ever said he wants "no regulation" on the financial sector.

Did he not have a large manufacturing base at that time? Total repub myths: 1) obama has been a failure because the econmy hasn't improved any more than it has. 2) romney's lowering of taxes, regs & whatever else will spur a flourishing economy with ample job creation Keys to Obama Win in November: 1) Women 2) the elderly in key states 3) Latinos 4) his policies & direction will appeal to & benefit alot more indy's than Romney's

Plus double digit inflation. The policies Romney is talking about have already been implemented and they have led to economic growth.
