We will be better off in 2016 than we were 2008-2012. Obama will go back to Illinois and he and the Empress will STFU and we never have to see or hear from them again. Can't wait!

Again, to the point of this thread, if gov't spending is curtailed relative to inflation, there will be a significant hit to the economy of this area. None of your points are relevant to the question posed in this thread, which is a purely factual matter.

Speaking of factual matters, has anyone other than me noticed that for all the talk of income redistribution, fairness and creating jobs just about the only place in the entire country where any of this is happening is in the counties surrounding DC?

Perhaps, if some of you really do care about spreading the wealth, Obama should lose in 2012 and be replaced by a Republican who does what they are all promising to do and cuts back federal spending. Maybe then there will be a few more counties outside of DC that are considered among the wealthiest in the country and that have an unemployment rate of around 4 %. Think about it, show some compassion for the rest of the country. Why do we get all the money? How does the rest of the country benefit by the fact that DC is the wealthiest area in the nation?

We get so much money because bush built up a war machine, which is run from here. Dems spread money through benefits, which go to all 50 states.

Look at the employment trend during bush and you will see this is true.

Promise? I've never forgiven Alec Baldwin for saying this, then sticking around.

About Romney, Romney has been -- if nothing else -- steadfast and stalwart in staying true to his positions. The man simply does not waver.

This is a joke right???

I lived in MASS during his campaign and subsequent governorship. He has shifted on quite a number of issues namely abortion rights. He is an opportunist that will say anything to get elected. Like every other pol, but shifts positions in a more blatant way to fit the electorate of the day.
