    It's pretty obvious who you are, Captain Obvious.
    You realize that, right?
    Don't go thinking you're the smartest guy in the room.
    You aren't.

    I'm a concerned voter. Don't claim to be smarter than all. Just smarter than some.

    Breaking down polls into their component parts like that doesn't work, and it only makes the results less accurate.

    It's very kind of so many tea party types to claim they're "independents" so that people can throw tantrums about how the math doesn't add up. Why, I'm sure they have always been "independents" and never claimed to be Republicans in the past.

    This is the last election the Republicans can try and win without decent minority support. Romney, IF he wins, needs to be president in a term where economic recovery occurs in all demographic areas.

    Although, in 2016, if a white person is the Democratic nominee, I am fairly certain the Democrats won't have all of the minority support they have now.

    Based on Moody's, whoever is the POTUS will benefit from 12m jobs being created in four years.

    It's a principled stand based on their abhorrence of Reagan's debt policies.

    Reagan was the champion of balanced budgets. He told us so thousands of times.
