Unless the GOP comes to terms with
its failed campaign tactics, anachronistic platform, leadership vacuum and the specter W's looming legacy and, instead, stay focused on their vigilante O witch hunts and endless smear tactics, that election may as well be skipped. I can't see any evidence on this forum, in the media, on the net or in the chambers of Congress that they are even aware of those problems, let alone any efforts to address them.

For that reason, I will be continuing to keep my altercount based in that reality, so plesae spare me the civics lectures. You have every right to believe in fairy tales, but they won't win elections either.

You are speaking in terms of only 1 ...
Calm down and have another drink of your Obama Kool-Aid and watch the other 2, maybe you will catch it.

G-O-P -- yeah, you know me.....ROFL. Steele not only has no clue about the hip hop community, but his following obviously has no clue what he's trying to do. Yeah, I'm gonna enjoy this one.

The terms used against Bush can only be described as hatred. sm

I can truthfully say, this place sounds like the DU and that is not a compliment. Oh, I know, I know, this is the liberal board. Gosh, I long for the days when we talked on the same board.

No, I was correct 1473 days - If you want to keep it real you have to come to terms that
Don't you get it? Don't you understand the basic concepts of our political election system here in the US. Every four years there is an election. The next election is 2012. That means 1473 days.

Don't you realize that Obama has not taken office yet so we don't know yet whether he will be a good president or not. Why don't you just want before assuming he will be in for eight years. As you know what they say about people who assume.

Yeah, let's keep it real. Next election will be 11/4/2012. As far as I know America has not changed our laws and just decided to skip that election.
