1. Be careful what you wish for, you may get it. Remember how Reagan was considered a lightweight
when picked to run against Carter? Who would have thought that dumbass W would even get close enough to Gore for an election to be stolen? (Although we all know that any close Democratic loss was in reality a stolen election.)

5. nader in 2000
Nader helped. Maybe a third party candidate can do it again. And people forget that Anderson and Commoner made it seem like more of a landslide that it was Reagan got 53% of the vote. Because of our stupid system you would think that 90% of the peeople voted for him.

3. Not to rain on parades here, but with
the disenfranchisement of up to 5 million people, 2012 is going to be stolen anyway. Get your canned goods together now! It's gonna get ugly.

6. Had to go for Cain
There are Repubes who would never vote for a black man in a general election, and there's the margin we need for victory. However, I figure the same thing will happen if Romney gets the nomination, there are fundies who would never vote for him in a general election, either.

To all of you who chose Rick Perry, be careful about what you wish for. Yes, he's an absolute idiot to those of us here, but he'd stand a far better chance of getting the three main Rethug factions, the country clubbers, the fundies, and the tea partiers, to hold their noses and vote for him than either of the other two would.
