Words are important. Especially when dealing with equal rights.

Their problem is, the word "marriage" has never, in thousands of years of existence, in any significant culture, ever applied to homosexual couple

Not entirely accurate.

[BigRedMan]

So let me get this right.....

Chick-Fil-A dude has always been a Christian, his stores are closed on Sundays for religious and family reasons, and SOMEHOW it is news NOW that he is against gay marriage.

Please file that news in the No Shit Sherlock file.

Libs caught in the act of being libs. Nothing like confronting one's self in the mirror. Conservatives/Repubs/Libertarian/Fox can speak it and be ridiculed by the MSM all day. Notice the Smith guys tone was the same arrogant one as Obammer in his now infamous you didn't build that screed.

[bluetick]

heh @ brm

I support Chik-fil-A 110% but I can't be 8-back in the drive-thru anymore. I can't - I won't. You political statement-makers should park and go inside. Better yet, go donate some time to a battered wife shelter or a food bank.

Just checked the Real Clear Politics electoral college map.

Obama has 247 electoral votes to Romney's 191. 270 EV's are needed to win.

The good news for Romney is Missouri just moved into his column. That's because his lead in the polls there reached 6%.

The bad news for Romney is he is still losing in 7 out of the 8 tossup states. The worse news is he is losing in two of those tossup states (Nevada and New Hampshire) by increasing margins. They are approaching that 6% threshold where they will be in the Obama column. That would give Obama 257 votes. That means Obama would only need THIRTEEN more EV's to win.

There are a lot of ways Obama can win those 13 remaining EV's. He could simply win any one of NC, VA, FL, OH. Or he could win CO and IA. By contrast, Romney must win almost all of these states to win.

Romney had better change that map in a hurry or there are going to be a lot of Republicans jumping off ledges on November 7.

It won't matter, we're doomed. That Obama is even in the picture more or less proves it.

[Professor Tiger]

I don't think Romney is doomed yet. Europe could collapse at any moment, and drag us into another recession. That could change everything.

But that "Vote for me because I'm not Obama" message doesn't appear to be working.

[THE_WIZARD_]

The two-party system in America has doomed us. R's and D's are a pile of shit.

[Dr. Strangelove]

I think Obama lost Missouri in 2008

Romney's got a lot of work to do in Ohio. It's not really going back and forth here. Obama's been ahead pretty consistently about 3-5 points. And even the most recent Rasmussen showed Obama ahead. No Republican has ever been elected without winning Ohio

[THE_WIZARD_]

Proving once again what a bunch of fucking idiots there are in Ohio...

[Jungle Rat]

What the fuck is Chik -Fil-A or whatever? Do we have those here? Never eaten at one. I love Cincinnati.

[GBJs]

But that "Vote for me because I'm not Obama" message doesn't appear to be working.

Especially since he doesn't offer any difference politically from Obama. They both suck.

There is no reason this country should have to choose between the lesser of two evils. Jeb, where are you?

True dat:

You know it's bad for Romney when he isn't winning in the Rasmussen poll.

But cheer up, R's: IB sez that Romney will mop the floor with Obama in the debates. There's a Reagan somewhere deep within the Mittster, never before seen, yet waiting to be unleashed at the right moment...

I like that comment. fuck separate parties, and separate primaries... and the electoral college...top two candidates, popular vote.

AS INDEPENDENTS.

Let there be more than two parties, and let them begin with me and my vote.

Just like 2008.
