a tie, or a voting controversy that would be decided by the Supreme Court?
The way the Republicans are running their election this year is so bizarre, one can't help but wonder if they have something up their sleeve. If they throw in enough money and chaotic legislation to create a voting nightmare, the Supreme Court will have to step in. Of course the court has been leaning to the right lately and they feel reasonably secure in the gamble.
Why else would Romney feel comfortable telling young people to get their college loans from their parents who are most likely living off of more of their retirement funds than they anticipated already? Or, John Boehner feel comfortable pushing through legislation that takes help from poor women and children? Why would they all feel secure in turning their backs on immigrants? Why is Rush Limbaugh being lower than usual, saying the rudest things he can think of about Hilary Clinton and every other woman he can call to mind? Why are they fighting to insult and disenchant everyone? The poor, women, military families, handicapped, immigrants, other countries. What are they really up to?

(15,189 posts)They steal elections, and expect everyone to comply. I'm willing to fight this time if they think we are going to sit by like in 2000. The gap with women, and the young makes these polls unbelievable already. How can it be 8 points or less with those huge gaps. We need to Occupy the polls, and make ourselves shown. Let them see that we aren't going to take it this time. We need people who can tweet the numbers and get their own numbers. Do more neighborhood reach to help people get to the polls, and to help them get the proper ID they might need.

I think they need to clean house of their crazies and get something together to actually speak to Americans.
