We have a lot of work ahead of us.  We need to keep a close eye on the battle ground states because I expect the Republicans will be up to their old tricks like handing out chump change on election day, scaring Blacks away from the polls and every other trick in the book.

NO DOUBT! (but my gut tells me that the market bottomed and that Obama will carry states with  educated voters).....Expect Repiglican shenanigans, but they'll be caught early this time!

What about Libertarians?  
We feel left out.

I'm officially forming:

Libertarians For Old Angry Sick White Dude For President

We will be voting on Tuesday November 4th with the Republicans.

Important note:
They have moved the voting for Democrats to Wednesday November 5th.

Please vote.
