  1. IDK I think he was a fairly inspiring candidate considering his movement was hardly mainstream. True he failed to steal enough established loyalty but I think he did better than many would have thought possible.
  2. As a libertarian Paul didn't do it for you?
  3. That's true I forget about third parties lol. Anyway, Obama would thank you for that.
  4. LOL no you are not. You feel Obama is not competent and therefore and inspired to vote against him. People who feel Obama isn't competent to be President are not really in the pool of voters either candidate is trying to persuade w/ their campaign. They're in the bag for Romney already. No that isn't true. First off, "inspiring" might be the wrong word. It's part of it but a broader word would work better. One that covers inspiring, likability, ability to relate...basically "this guy could be my leader" for a large number of Americans. W Bush had it. Hell I saw him speak at an event and the guy...for all that goes along w/ him (and I don't care to get into a discussion about him)...is actually quite hilarious and he's not nearly as dumb as he comes off had some smart and engaging things to say. Obviously many Obama qualities work for large segments of the population. Clinton and Reagan were 2 of the best. ETC Romney really doesn't have it. And I get the 3 pillars of Romney lol...I don't see it working for the majority of Americans (by majoirty I mean 8ish% who will make up their minds between now and the election). Ultimately Romney is going to have to speak to the people and convince them to pick him as their leader. He's not going to do that by talking about how profitable Bain was or the Olympics (honestly the Olympic thing is a joke) and he refuses talk about being Governor. If he wins he would be one of the first presidents I've seen who has almost no ability to just sell himself as a person. I know you will Doc. I know.
  5. Well he seem to generally lack any qualities that would make him inspiring or even likable as a President. It's not that he has something particularly uninspiring about him as much as he has nothing inspiring about him. It's pretty much "I'm Mitt Romney and I want to be President." BTW everybody has their own opinion this is just mine. But I haven't really heard very many people who have a whole lot to love about Mitt. People who hate Obama will vote for him. Those who could go either way....IDK what they'll do but at this point it seems they'll either go against Obama or not I still don't see a whole lot of reasons the undecideds will all the sudden find Romney to be an appealing leader for our nation.
  6. Look Will McAvoy is a Republican. Case closed.
  7. It's just lybob's explanation for why he's so uninspiring to him personally.
  8. I don't troll really. I was just being sarcastic yesterday and then realized a few people weren't getting it so it turned into trolling. Just sort of happened. I guess I'm a natural. As for defending Romney, I assume basically everyone. Maybe I'm wrong but I don't know very many people (actually any) who were huge Romney supporters...I don't even really know that many who are now except to beat Obama. If he does win it will be a true accomplishment, win the Presidency when very few Americans are fans. Maybe I'm wrong and you've been waiting for Romney to take the reigns of this country for a while and really think he's the President for you...that could be. And of course there are some I'm sure out there who feel that way. I'm just saying...not ... very... many
  9. That's a pretty easy move actually. Hate is a strong word of course, but there's little about Romney that inspires...there's really little that is even appealing about him as a man. It won't be a blowout but I would be surprised if Romney wins this election. I do think Jeb Bush would have won this election.
  10. LOL I'm always trolling you Doc. As to that particular comment, I was not trolling. I'm just saying the election is funny. You see people who wouldn't be caught dead defending Mitt Romney now defending him...and to some extent the same for Obama. The wonders of a two party system...where we choose between Romney and Obama.
  11. Of course. And I'm not saying it doesn't lean left. But it is just a show. It's fiction and a few of the episodes have been hilarious. Some of the characters are getting good and not every episode is just bashing the right believe it or not. A lot of people on this board like the Simpsons. Simpsons clearly leans left...is the Simpsons a commercial for Obama?
  12. It is funny though the anti-Obama crowd doing gymnastics to defend Mitt. I get it, of course, but it's funny to see.
  13. Political Science? How poor do you guys really think his grades could have possibly been. Probably worth more trouble to ramble about his Harvard transcripts than his undergrad.
  14. Haha c'mon if you couldn't tell I was joking around you are either 1) an idiot or 2) very caught up in your own argument to not realize I'm saying things that are ridiculous and unlike anything I typically say. Don't be mad at occasional humor. Your attitude on this place is that you are basically going to crush others with your clearly correct views. You would think that is a form of humor in itself since you ... ya know .. haven't fixed America yet. Seriously though, the Obama bashing and liberal bashing on this board is relentless. Are some conservatives so uptight they can't take a joke when they reign snide remarks on politicians and other posters constantly? (hint: rhetorical question)
  15. Haha gotchya! Trolling is awesome. Act like an idiot on an anonymous message board then when the other person responds THEY'RE THE IDIOT! This is great. But anyway sorry guys...so Romney dodged Vietnam and told everyone else to go fight eh? Pretty good business move there IMO. Minimize risk and still do what you want awesome.
  16. Shhhh....lol it's not enough these days to declare it. It's actually impossible to troll PPP I think. If you try you simply...start PPPing.
  17. Actually never heard of that one. I'll just say this for your own good, you may want to put down your insane conservative quest to "win America" once in a while btw and enjoy life. I live in the south and have plenty of friends...long running friends...who are plenty Republican and plenty negative on Obama. Yet a few of them actually like this show. Will McAvoy is turning into a great character, and they like the show b/c of it. You see my redneckish southern republican friends are smart enough to know one thing...most HBO shows are better than the rest so it's worth a shot and often they like them. Foreign concept? Just..living life outside of politics? Not to most Americans surprisingly enough. Contrary to this board...most of my GOP friends don't have to turn off a fictional comedy/drama b/c they say something mean about the Tea Party. I know this is a "lib show" to you. But in reality...away from PPP...it's actually just a show.
  18. LOL follow your own advice. I'm just trolling around at the moment Rob don't take it personally. You are one of the posters I don't hate so much, although I still hate you somewhat like I hate everyone on this planet as any good liberal should. That said, I'm just being sarcastic to get a rise out of you for my own amusement. No hard feelings.
  19. I'm being serious compassionate conservative "do-somethings" have no place in the party. Not one person has been prevented from getting aids and last I heard there has been no medical advances in treating the disease, curing it, or preventing it since the 80s. It's a joke.
  20. There is no room for compassion in sound public policy I'm agreeing with you. Spending my money to fight someone else's aids disease is terrible and they'll always want more.
  21. im concerned that the Bills may not have a good second option at WR according to the general forum
  22. No, it's the ultimate truth.
  23. True. Aids would be better off if we just did nothing. Kind of like the '08 crash.
  24. Just finished. Got them all right.
  25. Cheney slimed up the ball before he left office
