re: Election Discussion Thread
Democrats suck because of their fiscal irresponsibility and their stupid programs that never accomplish anything beyond spending more money that we don't have.
Republicans suck because they are the Jesus Freak party. I am a Catholic and I am very proud of my faith, and I am all for preserving the rights and liberties of religious institutions (IE, no Catholic Hospital should be forced to provide Abortions) but I feel religion and politics should be separate and when they start saying things like "Gay Marriage & Abortions have to be illegal because God said so" then fuck off.
If you twisted my arm and forced me to pick one candidate to vote for, it would probably be Romney because all that Hope & Change bullcrap from four years ago amounted to nothing by more debt, higher unemployment, and just a shitty job all around. I don't know if Romney is any better (I doubt it), but I don't like what we have, that's for sure.
Also, I lol at both parties for their joke conventions. RNC has a crazy old man talking to a chair (Clint, I love you, but that was weird) and DNC has the Democrats actually stealing votes from themselves. So yeah, fuck you both and I mock your stupidity.
All I can say about the election is that I can not wait to see what South Park does with it this time around. I mean the Cartman voter recount election episode, Douche & Turd, and the jewel heist from 2008 were all fantastic political parodies. I hope we get another.

According to who? Most people don't like her any better than her husband. The extreme rhetoric of the Republicans is what alienated the female voters. You just sound like you're in denial. The Republican Party is in such disarray right now that there's no chance of them winning. It's to the point where they have to use scare tactics to sway voters.

re: Election Discussion Thread
Punked Up clearly lives in a fantasy world where Romney is a decent/likeable candidate and people don't realize that his running mate is a blatant liar.

re: Election Discussion Thread
Yeah Kobra, the same tea party that had more minorities speak at their convention than the dems and most others in history right? There we go with the tired "Obama haters are racist" logic. Scrilla, if 4 years of one of the most destructive presidencies of all time can't convince you that Obama isn't right, I don't know what will, but Romney has done nothing to make himself unlikeable and if you're talking about the GM plant in regards to Ryan, then lol at you and your incorrect beliefs. On top of that history proves that except for 2008, VP pick doesn't really affect the outcome. Here I was thinking that some people were capable of intelligent discussion without childish insults...shame one me I guess.

Most don't, yes, but to say that she doesn't draw sympathy from all voters and appeal to demographics that Romney couldn't reach is crazy.

No one is saying that Obama haters are racists. However, just because the Republicans throw out some minorities to act as pawns for the RNC it doesn't negate the fact that the Republicans use race baiting and racial themes in their political campaigns and political ads.

Let's tone down the hyperbole.

re: Election Discussion Thread
Don't know if anyone else has said this, but I feel like the Democrats just booked a bunch of celebrities to show up to influence the younger people to vote for them without any knowledge of politics. Elections and voting have completely gone to shit.

Re: Election Discussion Thread
They had one celebrity, who did some weird shit that was deleted from the tapes later on.
The DNC had at least 3 actresses and the fucking Foo Fighters performing.
