Here's my views on the six main candidates: If I had my way, Anderson
or
Johnson would win, they're both smart, and relatively well-rounded
candidates. But if we're being realistic, Obama, my third choice
would win. Stine is a bit too Liberal, Goode is stupid, and Romney is an ass.

While I don't agree with him on much, it would be kind of cool to have a president named Rocky.

Voting history since Reagan is almost completely tied to economy; even a popular incumbent will lose if things are, or are perceived as, economically bad. Obama's in all kinds of trouble and it has very little to do with politics.

Well, that was a pretty pathetic debate. You had a moderator who couldn't remember the debate format two seconds after he read it out loud, a woman who sounded constantly on the verge of tears, a man who almost can't talk who wants to stop ALL immigration into the country, a sponsor who couldn't stop laughing directing us to a website so amateurish it looks like it was designed by a twelve year old in 1993 (also, it's completely broken) and Gary Johnson, who was pretty good. Yes, the super-PACs are to blame for why these people can't get traction. Sure.

Romney needs an act of God without Ohio. And I can't see him taking back Ohio from Obama. He's done a hell of job taking on both Obama and the media simultaneously, but I just can't see him taking Ohio away...bottom line. And without that state O wins. All I know is I can't wait til its over!
...that moment you realize you like "Mob Rules" better than "Heaven and Hell"

Yay democracy!
It wasn't a debate. It was a third party circle jerk. What do these people have to gain by actually arguing with one another?
Also, Tobin could have directed me to terrible websites all night.

I do he is spending money here in MN....which is very strange. MN is not supposed to be close....
It's a bit of a long shot, but I think it's doable. The latest poll has him up one in Iowa and within the margin of error in Wisconsin. A strategic deploying of Paul Ryan and ad dollars might move the needle to where he needs it to be. In some ways I think it would be easier than taking Ohio.
So how is Jill Stein? I used to enjoy Nader back in my green days.....does she carry the mantle well?
Mainly she advocated a "green new deal," bragged about getting detained, and talked about making college "free" for everyone, which scored the only rebuttal of the night from Johnson, who reminded everyone that "free" does not mean no one pays for it.
