Obama better hope people buy this nonsense. It sucks out here if your over 50 and I don't want to hear another phony f*cking poll. I don't believe a friggin thing on TV or out of DC anymore from any side of this system. Obama inherited a disaster no doubt about it, but he's done precious little to fix it, except line the pockets of the same criminal class that crashed it in the 1st place.

I knew somebody who was at a school where they poll people and put together stats on elections and such and it was pretty right on about 2008. So I think some are better than others. The insiders in that system are very accurate. I don't think we get the best info.

Who would you prefer Obama or Romney? Both will do the same for the wealthy class. That's the name of that game. Obama is slightly more indebted to the left so he would forestall the takedown of SSI. Romney is more indebted to the right so he would be more likely to pull off a strict neocon bamboozle (bomb-boozle?) on Iran, takedown SSI, and probably appoint another conservative on the Supremes which would lead to a takedown of abortion rights.
