You probably posted that drivel with a straight face, especially with Benghazi, right?

Re: 2012 Presidential Election Part 4
I see, so Benghazi--whatever the facts ultimately show--means you can shake the Etch-A-Sketch and Romney's years of pants-on-fire lies goes away? The specific ones noted--and many others--are only "drivel" in the right-wing, say-anything-about Obama, hate-monger dominated, alternate reality that Romney operates in in order to prove he's "severely conservative. In the world of reality, Romney's serial lies--repeatedly debunked--are part of an intentional strategy of throwing everything and anything against the wall repeatedly. In the latest example, Chrysler had to issue a statement lest it be stained by Romney's lie about Jeep manufacturing.
And speaking of Benghazi, let's not forget the first and most despicable lie about those events, Romney's blatantly false claim that the administration was sympathizing with terrorists. http://www.factcheck.org/2012/09/romney-gets-it-backward/

Fivethirtyeight.com continues to show Obama pulling away, now a 75% lock with a 50 EV lead. After eliminating the bounces, "In fact, our projected leader in all 50 states is the same as it was at our launch of the forecast in June."
Admittedly Obama cheerleaders, but still - they're not hedging their bets at all.

Interesting considering this breakdown of predicted turnout from other polling sources. One way or the other some pollsters are going to have egg on their faces at the end of this.

Heard on Dennis Miller coming back from lunch that a jobs report will not be released. They say it's because of Sandy, but I call BS, and know it's really because they'll spoil the election for the messiah dictator.

That's an interesting twist to things, if it is in fact the case.

Was it Hitler who wondered how many divisions the Pope had? Similarly, Greg Abbot has a lot of resources, including the Texas Rangers (the ones with guns) at his disposal. And if they want to cuff and stuff any or all of these Hans Blix wannabes, who's going to stop him?

You mean the hurricane that doesn't affect 2/3 of the country, and when California was conveniently left off the list?

Re: 2012 Presidential Election Part 4
Nobody died because of Romney's "lies." Not only did four Americans die in Benghazi, there is accumulating evidence that His Liarness could have provided assistance, but didn't. And knew who was responsible for the attack, but lied about it for days. This is obviously of no consequence to Kool Aid drinkers, but so called "persuadable" voters might not be so forgiving of gross incompetence and mendacity. And that's what's got you worried, isn't it Bunky?

Yeah, a 3:1 Obama likelihood by Silver is quite a stake in the ground. I wouldn't have the guts to throw it out there. Intrade still has this at a 3:2 likelihood for Obama. Although this may be Silver's swan song, he does have a heckava track record (from wiki):
The accuracy of his November 2008 presidential election predictions—he correctly predicted the winner of 49 of the 50 states—won Silver further attention and commendation. The only state he missed was Indiana, which went for Barack Obama by 1%. He also correctly predicted the winner of all 35 Senate races that year.
I love any right wing loop-d-loop blogger who ends a 'treason' article with: I would be pleased to withdraw it if proven wrong.
Of course, he has zero shot of proving that he's right on even one of his conclusions.

Love your arguments when it comes to honorable service and who died because of someone's lies.
Of course you conveniently forget about the lies, half-truths (same as a lie) and exaggerations (same as a lie) that got is into Iraq.
You also have no problem with the the lies, half-truths (same as a lie) and exaggerations (same as a lie) that allowed voter suppression laws to pass. It's just voting, right? Nobody died over voting, right? Well at least not since the 50s and 60s.
So as long as Romney's (or any other of your GOP boys') lies don't get anyone killed, all is well? Is that the line? Just want to make sure I know at what point I should be outraged.

Well, this is a bit of a surprise, as the Des Moines Register has endorsed a Democrat for President from 1976 through 2008 inclusive.
