Also, unless the Venetian gave the TP convention an incredible rate, that a group against high taxes, waste, etc. is having a convention there sends entirely the wrong message. People in both parties are so incredibly stupid when they think their actions won't be brought to light. The country is so connected, yet so divided, nothing stays "under the radar". It's just like something I've always done at work....think every E-mail or text you send could wind up on the CEOs desk, if you're not OK with that....don't send it.

Agree, energizes conservative base, helps in midwest/rust belt, shows campaign serious about fixing economy.

Re: 2012 Presidential Election (free for all edition)
Also looks like they wanted to pick a guy they could eventually groom to run for president.

Re: 2012 Presidential Election (free for all edition)
The GOP and Romney has put its money where its mouth is with the Ryan pick and that's very admirable. Get your popcorn ready folks, the werewolf and the vampire are on the trail to get their country back.

Have you been hanging with Fred and Trent lately? Romney has just lost the elderly vote and anybody on SS/Medicare/Medicaid. How Paul Ryan could be a drag on Mitt Romney in Florida - Political Currents - MiamiHerald.com Here is this idiot at a town hall meeting trying to peddle the "Trickle Down" economics to the locals and apparently they aren't having any of it. He's the typical conservative "give rich all the money, take away from the poor, need more wars" douche bag this country DOES NOT need. **** this guy, and **** the GOP for even trying to peddle these assclowns. It's sad the conservatives have been reduced to this. Can we get McCain back?...lol

![]() Really though, this election year has me kinda worried. I'm afraid of what this country's working and middle class is going to look like under a Romney run White House. Both from an economical and social standpoint.

It doesn't matter if they cut the tax rate for the top 1% down to 0. If people get to work again and have money to spend it's worth it. We need to stop worrying so much about the class warfare and start figuring out what is going to get unemployment back to 5% to 6%. I don't know how much of the criticism towards the Obama adminstration is true (such as spending, amount of spending,etc). What I do know is people believe it's real and sadly the impact of those perceptions become real (hring freezes, lower projected earnings on publicly traded companies, etc).

Re: 2012 Presidential Election (free for all edition)
[QUOTE=Dirtbag59;930306]Whoever does a better job of getting people back to work and putting businesses in a postion where they feel good about hiring again is going to help the middle class more then anything. People focus to much on the class warfare.
QUOTE] Class warfare is exactly what this is,like it or not there is a direct correlation between the demise of the middle class and the demise of Unions around the country.people talk about getting others more educated to get better (other) jobs when their job is sent over seas,yet those jobs are also going over seas.People can not live on 7.50 or even 10.50 a week. I know people hate Unions,well I've said this before..you want firemen and policemen to walk into buildings and take a bullit fot you ...save your life but when it comes to them being able to support a family screw them,what do think would have happen to the firemen ,EMPs and Police after 9/11 if not for their Unions,yes there have been bad Union as there have been bad owners but the temperment for what is going on right now in this country proves we need Unions.(sorry for the rant)
