Is the GOP throwing the game on purpose?

[londonfog]

They not throwing it on purpose they just following their tradition of "the next in line". Old men that are stuck in their ways.

Show me an electoral count where Obama wins (and is feasible). At this point, it is Romney's to lose, even the librul media agrees.

You people should have neve put Romney up. You had a better chance with Ron ( and I don't really like some of his views ), but no you put up Romney...again thanks

The great Obama's wax wings have melted and he is plummeting to earth. Where's the magic? The word on the lips of all the libruls is "disappointment." Major supporters and contributors are defecting left and right. I personally think it was the callous way he tried to use both the Trayvon event and the gay marriage debacle for political gain. "he" was supposed to be beyond that. He was supposed to be transformative. But the fact is, you scratch Obama and you find a dirt common Chicago machine thug.

He's been exposed. It's embarrassing to watch. He has become a parody of himself. I told democrats months ago there was still time to dump Obama and run Hillary. Now it's too late.

I dunno maybe, it seems to be a valid question considering their candidate which will never win.

If he makes Rand Paul his VP pick, he'll get every one of the Ron Paul supporters and just about every libertarian. He'll already get the Conservative vote and looks like he has a distinct edge on Independents. The GOP could have put forth Charles Manson as their candidate and they'd still get my vote this year. I can't think of one scenario other than major head trauma that leads to me voting for Obama.

there are so many, where to begin. do you ever get a chance to do math in between stints of wondering about other dude's sexuality?

florida goes to obama, game over.

ohio and virginia go to obama, game over.

romney has to flip indiana, florida, pennsylvania, ohio, north carolina and virginia. obama only has to retain one or two and is expanding the map anyway, going to make romney waste resources in arizona.

A lot of us don't like Rand enough to sway our vote towards Mittens, he is a social conservative. I would not vote for Mittens just because Rand would be the useless VP.

So you'll vote for Obama? Either directly or by pissing your vote into the wind on a third party candidate in a show of defiance that no one but Obama will benefit from? I tried that with Perot, it didn't work out so well. The enemy of my enemy is my friend... For the sake of the country, hold your nose and vote for some sanity and at least a four year intermission from this progressive, traitorous and suicidal agenda.

I don't think Romney will be any better, is there any reason that I should? I don't follow the "wasted vote" notion which I think is a huge problem with elections, I vote for the best candidate.

Not remotely true.

Ridiculous claim. Very unlikely. Romney did horrible with independents.

I like how you just state your opinion here as if its fact....I am sorry its just not..We have had poll after Poll on libertarian and Ron Paul websites showing just the opposite of what you wrote and we libertarians are constantly disagreeing with you in our writings on the Internet. I have to say the vast majority of the libertarians on the Internet disagree with you about all of this, further, there are MANY conservatives that absolutely dispise Mitt Romney this is well known. I would also like to add that typical libertarians do not buy into the "LESSER EVIL" or "Throwing away your vote" crap...they are after all third party voters historically...

I am sorry but no matter what Glenn Beck tells you ..Conservatives are NOT libertarians...

sorry this is just your opinion and while some people I am sure share this opinion it is not EVERYONE, as you put it, and scientifically proven not to be the majority.

I don't know where you get your information, but Romney has been killing Obama on the Independents for a while now. Maybe i overshot by including the libertarians, now that I think about it, they may be stubborn enough to help Obama so they can not vote for Romney. As to the wasted vote subject, I used to think that way, but every vote for a third party candidate is exactly the same as a vote for Obama. Perot absolutely won the election for Clinton. I know, I fell for it.

I haven't listened to Beck or watched Fox news in over six months, not that I'm avoiding it, I'm off political tv at the moment and Beck is too religiony for my taste these days. Take your incorrect and condescending bullshit down to the kiddy table.

How can we ever elect the best candidate if we vote with the "lesser than two evils" mentality?

face it, one of the two are inevitable this time. maybe if your hero and savior actually tried for a revolution instead of a massively failed delegate collection strategy, we would be looking at a possible three way race.

so this year, it's a matter of blocking the worse candidate, the one who would rather see you buy a pill from big pharma rather than grow your own medicine in accordance with state laws.

 

[desert dude]

Have you looked at any of the Polls lately? And not just on fox news but on any liberal media outlet?

Romney and Obama are essentially tied in the polls.

So, what are you basing your insane assumption on again?

With the state of the economy, an Obama win might be the best thing for the Republican party. They will have a villain to point at when the shit hits the fan...

That only leaves you with a choice of a write-in vote for Ron Paul, or voting for Gary Johnson.

you're such a drama queen. pull the wadded panties out, dry up your tears, and buck up, sweetie.

“What I specifically said was that we were not going to prioritize prosecutions of persons who are using medical marijuana,” Obama said. “I never made a commitment that somehow we were going to give carte blanche to large-scale producers and operators of marijuana — and the reason is, because it’s against federal law.”The president continued: “I can’t nullify congressional law. I can’t ask the Justice Department to say, ‘Ignore completely a federal law that’s on the books.’ What I can say is, ‘Use your prosecutorial discretion and properly prioritize your resources to go after things that are really doing folks damage.’ As a consequence, there haven’t been prosecutions of users of marijuana for medical purposes.”

And yet, Obama was able to instruct DoJ to ignore enforcement of DOMA. In case you don't know, DOMA was passed by congress, and Obama nullified it from an enforcement perspective; but he can't nullify congressional law when it comes to enforcement of cannabis laws. It almost seems like Obama really is just a standard drug warrior, but don't let that stop you from massaging his ball sack.

 

[desert dude]

The DEA and FDA determine what is listed in the controlled substances act. The president could call in the heads of those agencies and order them to delist cannabis from the CSA tonight and their only options would be, "yes sir, it will be done tomorrow" or "here is my resignation".

Obama owns the drug war, just like every president since Nixon.

that's because DOMA is unconstitutional.

federal enforcement of cannabis is viewed as unconstitutional by people like you and me, but good luck getting anyone to spend any political capital on it.

how am i massaging anyone's ballsack? i am merely pointing out facts.

wipe the sand out.

again, good luck expecting the president to spend any political capital on this issue in your unrealistic wunderland world. perhaps you have forgotten how we have gained whatever progress we have made.

hint: it wasn't the president, congress, state governor, or legislature. are you naive, forgetful, or both?
