The Official 2012 Presidential Election Thread

[Sansprix]

Wait till them nikkas start debating.....dude is Sarah Palin wit a penis.

This.

Once the debates start....he's gonna put his foot in his mouth or flip on yet another stance and it will be a wrap for Romney. I just hope people actually vote, and don't think Obama automatically got this in the bag.

You really need to put HL back as a subforum here, at least the most recent thread title was always visible at the top of the page.

Yeah people underrate 's debating skills. The debates couldn't start soon enough imo.

Romney is bound to say a few insensitive things towards the 99% of Americans.

The rethugs still have to hold their national convention where they swear in
Money Mitt and his running mate.

Honestly, I think 's new immigration reform bill, was a great tactic.

Now R-Money's potential VP, Marco Rubio, is flip flopping on issues more than Joe Lieberman, switching his political affiliation.

5 more months is like an entirety in politics.

It's gonna be a hot summer

RealClearPolitics - 2012 Election Maps - Electoral Map

Look at that map. I can't really see how Romney gets to 270 w/o some real upsets (its doable most certainly) but he'd have to take MI, OH, keep MO, take FL, and NC while Obama takes the remainder to get him (Romney) over 270.

MO didn't vote for Obama last time (and they usually are on the winners side most times) but I think they still vote for Romney, NC is up for grabs but I can see it being red this time though and FL is a tossup, I actually think Romney may have a better shot at MI than OH to turn it red which is odd (since its usually the opposite for republicans and democrats for those two states on a national level) but the bigot turnout in the rest of that state could hurt Obama. I see Obama holding CO and NV with AZ going red. IA and NH is either way don't know.

IDk I think it comes down to a few midwest states, FL, and NC that determine if Romney even has a shot to get to 270, while Obama just has to hold really. It'd be interesting in a few months because you can see the trends occuring already. The women vote will determine it, although just depends what types of women turnout to vote and in which battleground state. A lot of people's minds are already made up and the debates/ads will more justify their opinions rather than help them form one.

The women/independents will vote on the margin based on pocketbook/economic issues so it'll depend a lot on where they live too.

What you guys think? What paths to victory to 270 you see for either Obama or Romney?

I think its hilarious that Romney never really gets into and specifics all he does is say things like "this presidents policies have failed I will put in place my own policies and succeed."
As for what those policies are he won't say. He just promises to look into things and come up with a better plan.

How can you fix anything with no specific plan?

Honestly, I'm surprised I haven't seen a series racial propaganda popping up,

like during 2008 campaign....


For example:

@ RNC still being 2 months away. That's a long as time....

As the saying goes...when you're explaining, you're losing, If Romney keeps on climbing up the polls running a campaign with no substance, then Obama is in bigger trouble than we think, the electorate is viewing this as a referrendum on the incumbent and they are indicating that thwy will vote for a door knob over the current POTUS.

Romney is the most disingenuous presidential candidate I have ever seen. He will say whatever it takes to win. GOP primary voters may have been fooled, but it doesn't seem to be working on the rest of the electorate.

if Obama loses this election (because of any reason) he's a failure of a president. NO EXCUSES! He's the imcumbent going against one of the least interesting candidates in history! ​

Romney making a play for the boricuas:


Looks like Mitt needs to call Maury Povich for that DNA test on Craig though.
