IMHO, it doesn’t matter who wins.

Listen to you, Allan.
How can it not matter?

If Obama gets re-elected, the GOP will go into all-out trench warfare mode and guarantee he’s a lame duck from the jump.

On the one hand, you have a president who is attempting to do right by the people while facing trench warfare from the Republicans.
Who knows? Obama could break the obstruction.

If Romney wins… well, I’m pretty sure we know how that’s gonna turn out – great if you’re a member of the oligarchy, not so great otherwise.

On the other hand you have a candidate who will turn America into a Russian type oligarchy for billionaires.[/quote]
Brian: Stop taking my comments out of context. I opined that it didn’t matter and then explained why. If you’re going to try and bait me, at least do a better job.
Obama is NOT doing right by the people, he’s playing cheap partisan politics and the class card. If we’re being brutally honest, we’re looking at two members of the 1% playing stalking horse for their respective machines (Rove/Armey versus Axelrod/Chicago Machine). Thus, my challenge to you on reform, any reform, but especially tax reform and entitlement reform.
Neither party wants to bell that particular cat and one has to wonder why. If we don’t engage in some serious and meaningful reform, entitlement spending will literally crowd everything else out (with the exception of debt service) by 2035.
Want to discuss that? Or no? You need to quit with this binary/Boolean thinking, where if it is not A, it must be B. It’s shoddy thinking, it lacks any sort of criticality and it’s dishonest.
