- Just look at the names of the PACs for Willard and Newt, what Orwellian double talk. They are not about the future. In fact they are about the status quo with the rich getting all the breaks and the burden of fewer opportunities and higher taxes falling on the dying middle class. It is spelled out in the Ryan plan on America. A plan to reinstitute Feudalism in America. GOPers show that you love this country by staying home or finding a third party.

- I'm now reading "Origins of the Crash" by Lowenstein. It's about the 2001 crash of Enron,World Com, and other corrupt companies that drove the Dow below 8000. Republicans fed by their wealthy business people fought regulation of auditing practices before this embarrassment.
We need to end these superpacs. - Reply to this comment
- Well, nice to see Mitt supported by his peers. If elected, I'm sure ole Mitt will return the favor to his 1% pals. And since the trickle down theory has worked so well these past few years, well, they assure me that it will start working any day now! Just keep holding the bag and the 1% crowd will chase all kinds of snipe into it........
The only thing worse than getting screwed is volunteering for it. End analysis: that's what Mitt Romney wants us to do. - Reply to this comment

YOU sound just like the ultra-wealthy willard romney, who grew up in a series of bubbles -- a very wealthy community -- which is the main reason why willard is growing less popular among independents that will decide the 2012 election, and because of the other questions focused on Romney's wealth, his low tax burden and, relatedly, his ability to connect with average Americans.
YOU will always vote against your best interests, just like the rest of your uneducated, southern RED state brothers and sisters on the dole.
Who gets welfare? Despite prevailing stereotype, whites, not blacks, collect greatest share of public aid dollars
It is a myth that persists despite government figures and authoritative studies showing that Whites overwhelmingly reap the lion's share of the dole.
Some 61 percent of welfare recipients are White, while 33 percent are Black - Reply to this comment
- Quite interesting that the rabid rightwads can only attack the declining unions, when its all about the UNLIMITED MONEY being infused into politics today thanks to the rightwing SCOTUS terrorists -- BOTH the small amounts from the unions and the huge amounts from the millionaires/billionaires and the fat corporations!
Just ONE multi-national like Exxon/Mobil which made over $41 BILLION in profits in 2011, has much more clout in elections/legislation than ALL the unions combined! - Reply to this comment

Just go back to sleep Rumpelstiltskin, since you never add anything to the discussion since obviously you slept through bushworld and only have a partisan need to parrot your fox/rush ridiculous propaganda! - Reply to this comment
- Of course willard romney grew up in a series of bubbles -- a very wealthy community -- which is the main reason why willard is growing less popular among independents that will decide the 2012 election, and because of the other questions focused on Romney's wealth, his low tax burden and, relatedly, his ability to connect with average Americans.
This is why President Obama has snuck ahead of willard romney among registered voters, 51 percent to 45 percent. What's more, 50 percent of voters in the new poll approve of Obama's job performance and the same percentage say he deserves re-election. http://abcn.ws/z3pXsy - Reply to this comment

Thank you rightwing terrorists on the SCOTUS that have only allowed the wealthiest Americans to buy all of our "elected" representatives, while damning WE THE PEOPLE! - Reply to this comment
- Basically what the Rich and the Republican Party have done here folks is flat out tell you they are going to SCARE you into voting THEIR way. They are going to hit you with EVERY trick they've learned from selling you Soap to have their way! This isn't the first time these low life creatures have tried this.. OH NO! You should look back at what they did to our Greatest Generation when THEY first stood up and said ENOUGH!

- Super rich prop up super PACs
Twelve of the nation's super rich gave to the pro-Mitt Romney group "Restore Our Future." One gave to the pro-Newt Gingrich super PAC "Winning Our Future." One gave to the pro-Ron Paul Super PAC "Endorse Liberty." And two gave to Democratic-leaning groups supporting either President Obama, "Priorities USA," or Senate Democrats, "Majority PAC."
Thank you Citizens United ruling for destroying America! - Reply to this comment
