If McCain wins, you should come to England. The weather isn't great, but at least the politics aren't as messed up.

He really has a way of wording things. He almost convinced even me in the beginning. But digging deeper changed my mind.
This time around though, I have no clue who will win. But it's looking like it's in Obama's favor at the moment.
It may be more likely that McCain will get both Texas and Florida (61 electoral votes total), but Obama's almost garunteed both California and New York (86 electoral votes total). Obama's also likely to get quite a number of states with 8-13 EV's a piece.

I dunno, I'm curious, but I'm not so nervous. Obviously I believe the country would be better off with McCain, but I don't think there'll be that huge f a difference. Luckily, some of the ideas Obama has talked bout (like taking money out of people's 401k's and putting it into social security) are near impossible to get away with. But others.....are easier. Though he has some policies which I can at least live with, as long as they're not forced like we're in some kind of communist regime.

****. The main reason for that outcome was because the dems pumped her campaing full of cash just this last month, and she started running more adds. The Dems in general seem to be much better funded (sometimes due to questionable reasons, though I suppose that's bound to happen on both sides), so they're able to run a lot of attack/general ads. TV ads are a major factor for why Obama is so popular. Not to mention the fact that most of the mainstream media is watching his back.
#1641
Posted 04 November 2008 - 08:24 PM
The problem is if Virginia hasn't been called by now, then Colorado is in trouble, Obama was polling roughly the same in both.
And don't forget Ohio, but to hell if McCain loses that.
#1642

Negative campaigning is the fault of both, and no one else.
And the Democrats are better funded because the Republican brand is weak this year, after eight years of Bush. It's usually the GOP that has connections and gets better funds.

And you believe that why? How man articles have you read on the subject from both Liberal and Conservative viewponts? Bush didn't invade against UN law, he went through the proper hoops, and even warned Saddam before he invaded. Giving Saddam plenty of time to stop breaking UN laws.
What's the point of the UN even having las if they on't uphold them? Bush was basically doing their job by removing Saddam.
Bush did nothing illegal. Some of the U.S.'s troops might have, but Bush himself neither mandated those acts, nor did he commit them himself.
The reason why so many people blame Bush for practically EVERYTHING, is because the liberal media si constantly saying how everything is all Bush's fault. Don't make me search for my post on who's at fault for each disaster.
Yeah, he probably could have done something. And then he'd probably be impeached for invading a state with the national guard and other soldiers without the Governor's consent.

If they truely are a terrorist, then they HAVE NO RIGHTS. They lost them when they tried to kill innocent civilians. Terrorists do not get the luxury of the geneva convention. They are terrorists.

If a US citizen killed an Iraqi citizen on Iraqi soil, he deserves to be tried in Iraqi court as an Iraqi criminal. That's how things work in almost every other country.
If that US citize killed a bunch of innocent Iraqi civilians on purpouse, or destroyed an important Iaqi landmark, than they deserve to be tried as a terrorist.
The latter, however, has not yet happened.

I don't know how fast News travels out-of-country.
Kids, second graders, would be taught about gay marriage.

First of all, do you know how unlikely that is?
Second, gays will still date/love each other with or without marriage.
And third and most importantly, cars give off gasses which could casue the destruction of our whole planet, not just our race. Does that mean cars should be banned?
EDIT-
"Kids, second graders, would be taught about gay marriage."
1.What do you mean "taught about."
2.And why would it be okay to be "taught about" straight marraiges, but not gay ones?

Chocolate come from cocoa beans, and can be naturally made by hand. The Aztecs did it themselves, and the Spanish conquistadores brought some back to spain if I don't recall. Could've been some other native american culture.
You know what's in breasts? Milk. Where do babies first get their nutrients? The milk in their mother's breasts.
Cow's milk is perfectly safe to drink after pasteurization, and you don't need a factory to pasteurize it.
Chocolate and Milk are both very much natural foods. The way they are processed nowadays though, isn't. A lot of chocolate you get at the store also has un-natural ingredients.
Milk is still natural though, and it's also often vitamin fortified aswell, which is even healthier for you.
And I also know a kid who's family makes their own bread. There's a lot of people who prefer to get fresh produce over processed foods.

Most candies nowadays are unnatural because of all the additives that are out in them. I doubt the peanut butter in Resse's Cups are even real.
Regardless, chocolate comes from a very natural, not man-made plant. And milk is usually the first food a baby ever

Sorry, you could be right, they may be natural at one point, but almost everything at store quality isn't. So unless you are making your own chocolate, milk, bread etc. then you HAVE to be eating something not natural.

The only additives in store-bought milk are vitamins, so that's still natural. Dark chocolate is the closest you'll get to the natural stuff if you're looking in a supermarket though, and even that has man-made stuff in it.
I don't know, I guess it wouldn't be as bad, but then there's the whole sanctity of mariage. I don't care if they date eachother and live together though. They've got every right to do that.
[EDIT] I decided to debate on the myspace pollitical forums a bit (don't judge). Turned out I was the youngest person there, and I was on level with some 40 year old Liberal guy.
Seriously though, there was actually sensible discussion.

Matrimony between men and women was an idea long before christianity came a long. So don't bring the bible into this.
With something simple as a pheromone you can make male flies try and mate with male flies. A small switch of nerves in the brains (not sure where it was) can make animals (or people for that matter) try and mate with each other. It's just biological chance that there's a two sex system, so that only a combination of male and female can procreate.
Worms just need to worms since they're hermaphrodite. They have both bits. It's just biological chance.
Furthermore, mankind is the only animal that uses sex as a pleasure. Since we've 'risen' above the fact sex is pure for pro-creating you can't just argue that 'it's not natural.'

I know. This is history, man, and it's really hard not to get swept up into it, even if you don't want to. Everyone went crazy when they announced Obama as the winner. I think we ran up and down five flights of stairs a total of 12 times in five minutes, banging on dorm room doors. And then that acceptance speech...

Yeah, it would be a shame to see them go down the path of the Federalist party from the colonial times, which was dissolved due to the fact that it was composed almost entirely of the social elites. You have to have diversity to survive, especially in times such as these. While I am a Liberal (to an extent), I do believe that the idea of American society focuses on two opposing views, at least on most issues, so I don't want the Republicans to fully die out.
But the modern Republican party has lasted much longer than the Federalist party did, so I'm sure that with a few adjustments, they'll be back on track.

A poll asked voters what was the main reason why you didn't vote for the republican party, and 60% said because they lost their way. 21% said because they were liberal. That's good news for the party. It shows that most Americans are not liberal.
Look, most conservative issues passed in props (gay marriage ban, ending affirmative action, bringing back the military to universities and on and on), so conservative ideas are not dead.
And well, republicans had their time anyway. Here hoping a Ronald Reagan emerges in 2012.
Palin is off my list until 2020 or so. She needs to dissapear for a while.
