svelteParticipantDidn’t get them far, even in local elections.
I just checked out UT to see how they are treating the subject. Their overview of who won was short and sweet. Wish all their articles had been that way.
And look at the comments section – quite a few are not happy with the media monopoly!

svelteParticipantFlu, you are getting more childish with each passing. Your insistence at putting ‘k’ in the word America just makes you look like a giant ass. You have grown to be a crotchity old white man way before your time, not to mention having miraculously transformed racially to achieve it. Quit whining about every vote that didn’t go your way. Enjoy life for christs sake.

November 7, 2012 at 7:28 AM in reply to: Post Election Blues: Dow -176pts, Nasdaq -39, S&P500 -21 #753918svelteParticipantGuess some of you forgot the upswing yesterday? Today so far has just shaved it back off. Back to square 1.
svelteParticipantSupreme Court nominations over the next 4 years is one of the major reasons I supported Obama this go-round.
svelteParticipantThe big story isn’t Obama getting re-elected. Anyone paying attention should have known that for awhile.
The big story has to do with the states that legalized gay marriage and marijuana by popular vote!
Exciting times we live in, my friends. Exciting times.
Just when I give up on the voting masses, they come together and do things that make me smile.
svelteParticipantEnjoy the day piggs. Finally this horse race is over…one way or the other.
Now we can get back to discussing wine, women, and maybe once in a while housing.
svelteParticipantdupe
svelteParticipantOh I’m with you ocr.
I focused mainly on the first three paragraphs of the article.
Picturing Romney next to legendaries such as Lincoln, Franklin, and FDR is extremely laughable and I don’t agree with many points he makes about politics, but the 80 year cycle concept is intriguing and worth additional thought for sure.
svelteParticipantOld man wanna be rich
Rich man wanna be king
And a king’s not satisified til he rules everything.And if you can’t be with the one you love honey, love the one you’re with.
There’s nothing you can’t learn from a rock song. 🙂
svelteParticipantI’ve noticed how humans get too caught up in the minutiae to see the big picture, the grand scale of things. Look at what all we’ve done to Mother Earth in the last couple hundred hears in comparison to how long she’s been around.
I like that 80 year theory…not only does it match up to a human lifespan it matches up with a lot of key events in American History:
1789-1809 Spring
1809-1829 Summer
1829-1861 Fall – Ends with Civil War
1849-1869 Winter
1869-1889 Spring
1889-1909 Summer – Industrialization
1909-1929 Fall – WWI, ends with Stock Market Crash
1929-1949 Winter – Great Depression, WWII
1949-1964 Spring
1964-1984 Summer
1984-2008 Fall – Ends with Wall Street collapse
2008-2028 Winter
I’ll have to think about it more, but the author may be on to something…
svelteParticipantsvelteParticipantsvelteParticipantHaving an HOA doesn’t eliminate a driveway full of cars. As long as it is a valid parking spot, a car can be parked there.
And it’s been my experience that many of the older homes without HOAs also have driveways full of cars. Take a look as you drive through a neighborhood like North Park…whenever you have homes close together, the cars get closer together too.
