Political discussion thread

I would totally vote for a guy who was shacking up with his woman, or who was a player.  But it almost seems an unwritten requirement that the President be married.  I think that's a shame.

So you mean you really wanted to see Newt Gingrich to take it away?

Gingrich has an ambivalent relationship with marriage. 

Take your bets here please. Obama or Romney?

My prediction is that Obama wins with 281 electoral votes.

Considering Obama's consistent advantage in the swing states, I would be surprised if Romney wins. But it's not entirely out of the question.

I don't know who wins but I can tell you who loses, the American.

It is a play on words, in one respect the rumor that one candidate might not be an American. In the other respect it is each and every one of those 60 million Americans, hence the American. But actually i don't have to be more specific, i read the rules of the forum and specific was not in there.

How about all the Americans, I am not confused, I am one of them. The system is broken. Each party projects their faults on to the other. Hypocrites. There is far too much American money hid away in overseas accounts to avoid taxation. We spend far too much money in an area of the world where they hate us. We need to reshuffle the deck We are holding aces and eights right now.

Americans should hide their money to avoid taxation.  Taxation is theft.  Weeee.
