Catholics can decide the 2012 election, expert says
04:15 am | DENVER, COLO., May 25, 2012 ( CNA/EWTN News).- As the presidential election draws closer, political expert Brian Burch is telling Catholics that if they turn out in slightly larger numbers at the polls, they will be “the decisive vote this November.”

And this is exactly why Florida and other red states are trying to make it much more difficult for minorities, including Hispanics, to vote.
If they won't stay away from the polls on their own, try to reenact some 2012 versions of Jim Crow laws.

My prediction: President Obama will win a second term by a thin margin.

I'm not being trapped or lied to by Obama or by Romney . . . oh, I mean Obamney . . . both are funded and bankrolled and are beholden to Megacorproations and Banksters (Goldmann-Sachs pulls both of their purse-strings, if THAT isn't an alarming sign, I don't know what is!)
Romney, Obama --- they're both the same. It makes no difference if either one takes office. Just as Obama was Bush Jr's Third term, Romney would make it a fourth . . .

My daughter likes him, and I know he's on our state ballot...I imagine the liberatarians will be on most state ballots.
I saw him on TV once. The kind of straight-talking anti-establishment guy that 20 year olds like....
I think we need some different voices.

The only way Mr. Paul can win is for Mr. Romney to back out. Even then, I would predict Mr. Obama to win by a much wider margin than Mr. Obama will get over Mr. Romney.
If Mr Paul runs third party, Mr. Obama will win in a walk.

Much like the elections in 2000 (Honestly, the worst EVER), 2004 (A close runner-up in my book), and 2008.
I will come clean. I registered in 2004 and my first vote was cast for...  ...John "Herman Munster" Kerry. This is what happens when you're enrolled in a college with a liberal air.

Paul would garner a great majority of the independent votes, young conservatives have rallied around him and there are a plethora of Democrats who also agree with Paul.
But there definitely would be something finally brought to the light: would right-leaning news outlets sabotage Paul? If that were to happen, that would only compound the truth further of Republicans-Democrats being in cahoots with one another.
