B-Large Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Most Americans don't vote by issue, most have no idea about what happens in Washington, they vote part line no matter what, and the others tune in 30 days before and get emotionally charged over the capaign mud. We are in the minority since we actively take an interest in Politics and Policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Jim Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I'd probably relate more to Obama than Romney, is my guess. Obama has money, but Romney is wealthy.... big difference... Obama's not wealthy?? What planet are you living on?

B-Large Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Obama's not wealthy?? What planet are you living on? Obama's net worth, from what I remeber is 5-7M. Romney's net worth, 250M. People can related and hope for 5M, probably will far far short, not many people without Powerball can concieve 250M in their lifetime..... Heck, my Aunt has 4M and is considering moving out of Souther Calfornia because it is so expensive... Obama's not wealthy?? What planet are you living on? But you'll base your vote on whether or not they can relate to you running out of toilet paper. Ok..that makes sense. Did I say I did? Did you read the post? My original statement what that I can see why people would not connect with Romney, and thought it should not be all emotion, Americans do vote with their hearts.... I mean, heck, Americans can relate to Santorum more than Romney or Obama.... when I ask myself who of the Republican candidates understand the masses better, I would say Santorum.... he has been there, faced everyday issues, he is probably more like the everyday guy.

I don't want an everyday guy. I want an exceptional guy. Someone that has been a huge success. It doesn't matter one iota to me if he knows the price of milk or not.

B-Large Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I hear things are getting pretty expensive a little further up North in San Fransisco San Fran is ridiculous...

Chef Jim Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) Did I say I did? Did you read the post? Ummmm, yes you did. My vote would be for someone more like myself, middle class with the hope to secure and self sufficeint someday.... somebody who really identifies with my struggles Obama's net worth, from what I remeber is 5-7M. Romney's net worth, 250M. So a net worth of $5-7 million is not wealthy? Once again, what planet do you live on? Sure Romney is wealthier but that does not mean Obama is not wealthy too. My cousin has an art gallery he open in SF, by Union Square- $15K a month just in the lease, and the gallery is tiny- His wife has a trust fund from a rich banker is Tennesee or someting like that.... lucky bastard... Phone number please. Oh and BTW if he has a gallery by Union Square he's selling some very nice ****. I've been wowed by many of those galleries with what they have.

Seriously, I don't have the artistic ability for that. And my friends twin toddlers wasn't my first choice. At first I was going to suggest driving into Norfolk and giving the supplies to Dave. But then I realized it probably wasn't a good idea. I would end up having to drive him to the Emergency Room to get the uncooked macaroni un-glued from his intestines Edited March 29, 2012 by /dev/null Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDBillzFan Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Obama's net worth, from what I remeber is 5-7M. Romney's net worth, 250M. And yet when the biggest challenge facing our country right now is reducing debt and deficit and giving companies reason to expand and grow and hire, you think the average joe on the street would prefer the guy who lives to divide and debase? Every time I pass a car with an Obama 12 sticker on it, I increasingly find myself thinking "How in the holy hell can you be that gullible?"

Alaska Darin Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 Obama's net worth, from what I remeber is 5-7M. Romney's net worth, 250M.. That's funny, because Obama's policies don't see ANY differences between the two. Rail on, minion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacka Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Some of that stuff is really !@#$ed and some of it is fascinating. Art is like wine and music. Who give a **** if you're the only one that likes it. I went to the art gallery at Pitt when I was at a conference there and killing time. Saw part of an egg carton, and a piece f pleated construction glued to a piece of painted wallboard with a pencil line down to the floor. I actually said out loud :What is this ****?!"
