This is FREAKING BULLSHIT! HOw the HELL can he win when romney has more votes! Its fucking bullshit! I think that is ridiculous! Yes i am ranting. The United States IS (as it already has) going to go more and more into debt! I know people arent gonna agree and thats fine. I didnt really like EITHER candidate. But I choose the less of 2 evils... (plus Ryan is cuter) But still. I dont understand the electoral vote crap. It pisses me off.

Sorry that you feel that way, but how Romney and the Repubs view women (among other thing)--I'm happy with another 4 years of Obama.
Yup hard times for me again...
For many.
They will regret their votes in 6 months....what I dont understand is why they cant see past the speeches.
And go by the progress..which is none..there is nothing to show for all the spending...we should be booming..its sad
I just feel we need to pull the USA out of debt. I dont think anything is going to happen with abortion or anything else for a long time. That is a womans right. Its their body. Noone should decide on their body but them. My views are way more democratic. However, with the amount of debt that the nation is in right now... and with everything else.. I havent had a raise in 4 years!! The economy is crazy! I have 2 houses that I cant sell. And no, im sure its no easy fix, but the economy NEEDS help. Democratics are wonderful. And they help out tremendously, but we need someone to FIX our money problem and stop giving it away to people that DONT need it.
The electoral system screwed us on this one for sure.
The electoral votes works as such....people vote in the states...each state gets so many electoral votes....the state then casts those votes for the state.
In other words lets say it was 90 percent to 10 percent for Obama in a state...the state is still worth so many electoral votes regardless...they are still worth the same if it was 51 to 49.

I don't think ANY President can fix our money problem.
Such as....what regarding women.
The country doesnt depend on how a party may view abortions.
The country depends on decisions regarding security and the economy in general.
These are the pressing issues.....the rest are social issues.
We dont need to be worried about abortions pot etc at the moment...they are not important.
These are things we work on while the ship is running smoothly not while it is sinking
Sure they can...you have to reduce spending

Well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
*shrugs*
*shrugs*
We waited 4 years...and only dug ourselves deeper...what will 4 more years get..a deeper hole.
Not saying Romney would have fixed it for sure but I think he would have made a difference in the right direction.
If not we wouldn't be any worse off that we are now .
The public just reelected a known loser...Romney doesnt have a bad track record...should have been an easy win.

Fair enough.
And thank you for being polite with me about it. Politics turns MANY people into huge douchebags, which is why I stay away from talking about it most of the time.
Too often politics is about voting for the lesser of two evils. I liken it to dating.
Pre-election is the time when a guy is trying to woo the new lady in his life...buying her flowers, taking her out to dinner, etc. Election day is like the third date.

The thing is, that as MUCH as the US is a two party country--there ARE other choices like some of the third party candidates (hell, I almost wrote in for Gary Johnson (he wasn't on the Michigan ballot), or just don't vote at all.
While obviously, it's HIGHLY unlikely that they would ever get elected--there's always other choices other than the Dems and Repubs.

im just disappointed.
Me too.
Gonna be a rough one ahead..lots of businesses will suffer..some will fold...others in high demand will get away with increased prices...with less money in our pockets...its not a good picture.
Big business will get bigger and small business will be tougher to survive..We are creating what we are trying to avoid.
The liberals just gave the monster the key to what they complain about...large businesses and not enough small business.
I agree...but for this election that would be a throw away vote.
What we need is an asshole....not one that tells us what we want to hear...but one that tell us this is how it has to be.
Yes, there are more choices, Heck, I wish that we had a FEW different democrates or republicans we could pick from instead of just the 1..
They all try to woo ya... I almost compare them to car sales man! LOL And what kills me is the AUTOMATED calls? If you cared, you would call yourself!
Agreed. I have 2 rental properties that at one time I tried to sell that cant sell.. My husband has already been told that the airforce base is CUTTING 700 jobs IN HIS DEPARTMENT!!!! If his job gets cut, I will HAVE to go bankrupt. There will be no way around it. I cant afford what i have on my income alone.
