Are you under the impression that the fights against racism and for reproductive rights have concluded? That's cute. Really. Do you still cuddle with your My Little Pony every night? Bake in your Holly Hobby oven?

There are a lot of jokes about how the South is still fighting the Civil War, but they're just, well, jokes. Attempts to be funny. But a significant portion of the Republican Party is STILL under the impression that the battle over reproductive rights is still underway. That's not a joke, and it sure as hell ain't funny.

Now I'm not a single issue voter, but combine the above with the fact that Romney claims that you can cut the deficit while lowering taxes and not touching defense spending (thereby demonstrating that he's either a pandering liar or hasn't mastered 3rd grade math), his economic "plan" is composed entirely of platitudes, every nonpartisan group that has looked at his economic plan has pronounced it lunacy, and he pledges to repeal Obamacare and replace it with . . . shh, it's a secret . . . well, the answer is clear. Combine that with the insanity that would emanate from the GOP controlled House, with potentially no reatraining force if the GOP takes the Senate, and it's not even close.

You say, "It can't be worse than Obama."

I say, yes. Yes it can.

Sometimes when you post on here I think I must have posted that! You are my soul sister.

Haha. That's a funny mixup. PP must have been reading a ton of polling since they all conclude that white males are abandoning the president in droves. Ps. No one believes in the war on women, but please keep thinking so.

I'm a pro-choice woman voting for Romney because I'm not an idiot that only votes on a single issue. I actually look at the whole picture before deciding... Wow, I have a uterus and a brain - imagine that.

Not all women are single and childless. A lot of us are looking to build a family with one husband.

What about this:

And in the fifties they swore that blacks liked segregation. Anyway keep telling women they are being silly. Every post is a gift to democrats.

Well that's a different question entirely. One I can't help you with because I'm a white, well-educated, new rich, usually Republican voter who doesn't want to see more and more of my hard-earned money being taken by Democrats and going to God-knows-what and not doing much good. And, yes, I'm a woman and I have daughters.

This is something I see lots of -- lots of seemingly educated people who vote Republican mostly because they're rich and want to keep their money. Okay, I get it. That's the priority for some -- hell, if I were rich, who knows? Maybe I too wouldn't want to share a tiny percentage of my wealth with people who really need it. But anyway, what about all of the lower-to-middle class people who vote for R/R? That I don't get. The rich and greedy people, okay, maybe I can understand your position a bit. But those who aren't rich - why are you voting for R/R?

ANd nobody has chimed in on that PP who asked a R/R supporter to provide some basics on these candidates' positions/plans on some of the top issues. I can't find that information anywhere!!

No rational definition of 42% (paid in taxes last year) is considered "tiny."

Good point. I didn't realize the percentage was so high. Was it lower under Bush?

I don't know, we weren't earning as much when Bush was president. But it's certain that it will be higher in the next 4 years under OB than it would be under RR.

Before you blame Obama for your tax rate, you need to figure out what % you were paying under Bush. You also need to know what someone with your current HHI was paying under Bush. Please don't blame Obama when you actually have no idea if it's his fault.
