Last year at this time we lost power for 9 days due to that freak snow storm in October!

Winds are up and rain is dumping on us... Heaviest to come tonight

 

If this had been brought up during the debates, Mitt would have changed his mind and said "that's not true!"

 

And some large number of people would have believed him, too. The loyalists don't care that he's a liar or that he'll throw them under the bus for a nickel.

 

You are much too correct on this point.

 

just like at bain capital...how many peoples jobs did he end just to save a few bucks??

 

I knows this isn't the place for political talk but, so many people around here (South Ga) believe EVERY word this man says, regardless of whether it's a flat out lie or a "position change" by the Romney Campaign. And all I hear when I ask about it is, "well he's trying to bring 12 million jobs back to the U.S". My question, where are these jobs coming from? No one ever has an answer.

 

Well power has been out for about 30 minutes and the old lady is already complaining haha

 

Least it's not dark yet! Keep the guns nearby, never know when looters will come out.

 

You want an answer? See here. Anyone taking office in 2013 who does absolutely nothing will see 12 million new jobs over his four years in office. And will of course take credit for it in 2016.

The irony of Mittwit's tenure at Bain Capital? He couldn't outperform a generic indexed stock fund -- and in order to produce a stunningly mediocre return he had to resort to offshoring and dividend recapitalization. (Dividend recapitalization is a euphemism for "you take out a big loan and give me the money, then you pay the loan back".) The dude's inept.

 

I'm not democrat or republican, and think we are just hosed either way this election.

I'm more libertarian, but not officially that... I'm not naive and think one will ever be elected president cause its just never going to happen, But republicans are not financially conservative like they claim, and democrats aren't either. Both sides have been spending money like drunken sailors...

Romney has a history of ending peoples jobs to keep money in his pocket, and Obama doesn't know jack **** about how to fix the economy. I will say that Obama did get bin laden on his watch...nobody can argue with that...

I did vote for Obama last time because McCain was just a flat out liar and has a history of it, and Palin was just a blithering idiot. And you can't tell me its because Katie Couric put her on the spot and the pressure got to her...Being the President or VP is a very high pressure job and you will be put on the spot and under pressure throughout the whole term...if you can't deal with that pressure, you can't be my president.

Tell ya what...I'd vote for Condoleezza Rice if she ever ran for pres because I want someone who is ridiculously smart to be the president...They have to be way smarter than me if they want my vote and have a good head on their shoulders. She exceeds those requirements. I don't care if she's a woman or she's black. Shes probably one of the smartest politicians we have today...

Anyway, I'll get off my soap box


How's that wind treating y'all over there on the east side?!
