Post #143 Sympathy For The Devil, Pt. III

All I can say is that I am better off now than I was fours ago.

It's the economy, stupid; it's ALWAYS the economy. In fact, of the Presidential elections I've voted in, I have gone backwards under Republicans -- '84, '88, '92, '04, '08 -- and forward under Democrats -- '96, '00, '12. I'd rather vote for Jill Biden's husband -- in case there any James Earl Rays reading this -- than Mitt Romney.

It's very simple. To get my vote, to make me ignore 32 years of history, Romney needs to explain what happened in '08 and how his policies will address the causes of '08. All I've heard so far is hot air.

Hey, I'm as much a redneck as the next guy and voted for Hillary... twice (once in the primary and once as a write-in the general)... in '08 instead of that black Muslin from Kenya. But President Barack Obama has earned my vote in '12.
