Cool_Arrow - that was the last election. People wanted a change. They bought into the Democratic marketing ploy. They thaught that they could get that, however they never asked if they should do that. This time around you won't have record numbers showing up to vote. The Republicans, the people that want to make sure that Obama doesn't get 4 more years to really make things bad, and the people that are so angry at his lies will show up. Those that still, for some reason, still like Obama may not vote for Romney, but will choose rather to stay home. So this should be a totally different election.

Personally I just don't understand how or why people still follow Obama. It just amazes me that people still want higher taxes and more govenment control

alangrrbs - depending on who you listen to and trust I don't see Obama taking Ohio, Nevada, or Colorado. Romney is controlling Florida as you said. Why would you read a liberal magazine if you want to know where Romney's election money is going.  That is like listening to I heart radio and hearing that Obama is out of money.

The best bet that Obama has to stay in power is to go to war in Iran or Lybia. I know it sounds crazy, but there are a lot of talk on the military side that supports this crazy idea.

Moral of the story is that if you want to make money off of this election play it like if it was the CFL and take the under and the underdog. If you do that then you will make a lot of money. This election is going to be like the Carter election. People understand that they voted for the wrong person for the wrong reasons. Obama will get kicked out of office and will go on and do some incredible things. It is like a step parent that everybody likes but should have never become a parent.

Never in my life did I think I woud see the day that higher taxes and larger government would be the platform of a leading candidate.

Also regarding your other post about military action...referred to as the "october surprise"  yes...are we 13 days away from the begining of world war iii or 13 days from a small attack on lybian radicals.  My guess is some form of military action after the debate and before november 1st.

obama will do anything now for a bump in the polls.  Its scary that more americans are going to die from his lies and so that he gets a bump in the polls.  Watch for the October Surprise between Oct 24 and Nov 1.  I just hope it is not in the Isreal-Iran arena (that would begin WWiii) and hope it is in Lybia.

“Obama…has shown throughout his term that he is a steady leader who keeps the interests of a broad array of Americans in mind,” the editorial from the Denver Post read, providing a sharp contrast with Obama’s rival Mitt Romney, who the paper excoriated for his remarks on the 47% of Americans who rely on the federal government for financial support.

“[T]hough there is much in Mitt Romney’s résumé to suggest he is a capable problem-solver, the Republican nominee has not presented himself as a leader who will bring his party closer to the center at a time when that is what this country needs,” the paper wrote, adding, “His comments on the 47 percent of Americans who refuse to ‘take personal responsibility and care for their lives’ were a telling insight into his views and a low point of the campaign.”

In its endorsement, the Denver Post also noted Obama’s foreign policy achievements, including ending the war in Iraq and ordering the raid that killed Osama bin Laden, saying the president “he has demonstrated himself capable in a tough situation.”

In a world of increasingly partisan media outlets, one political endorsement today may come as a rare surprise: Salt Lake City’s largest newspaper has endorsed President Barack Obama.

In an editorial entitled “Too Many Mitts,” the Salt Lake Tribune’s editorial board writes that, despite serving a “largely Mormon, Republican, business-friendly state,” it cannot support Utah’s “favorite adopted son.” The editors say the Romney they held in such high esteem during the 2002 Winter Olympics has since “skedaddled.”

“From his embrace of the party’s radical right wing, to subsequent portrayals of himself as a moderate champion of the middle class, Romney has raised the most frequently asked question of the campaign: ‘Who is this guy, really, and what in the world does he truly believe?’” the editors write.

The editorial, which spends more time arguing against Romney than it does for Obama, already has drawn 186 reader comments since it was published less than two hours ago.

Outside of the Tribune’s office, the Beehive State is so red that it’s hard to find a recent presidential election poll of the state’s voters. Sen. John McCain of Arizona received 62 percent of the vote to Obama’s 35 percent in 2008. The 2010 Census found that 62.2 percent of Utah residents are Mormon, according to the Tribune.

But history and religion clearly aren’t holding  the editorial board back.

“The president has earned a second term,” the endorsement concludes. “Romney, in whatever guise, does not deserve a first.”

Florida's largest paper again backs Obama

Google the interactive electoral map it tells you everything you need to know. It also has up to date chart polls per each state. They concede Florida to Romney  (as they should) and he is still short 60 or so electoral votes, needing Virginia, Ohio and a few others to fall his way. On the other hand if Obama takes North Carolina or a few he's not supposed to its a big win for him. Its all over but the crying take a hundred dollar profit and call it a tax cut......
