10 years ago the USA had Steve Jobs, Bob Hope and Johnny Cash ....
Now we have no Jobs, no Hope and no Cash.
Vote for Change. I already cast mine.

early voting has been strong here in TX. Some places have had the lines going around the buildings. They might have found shorter lines on Nov 6th.

In 2008 Obama looked at the financial statistics of our country and called for change. Our national debt was at $10 trillion, our food stamp program had 27 million needing a hand out and in October 2008 our unemployment was at 6.5%. After four years of his version of change, we have a record national debt of $16.5 trillion, an all time high of 46.7 million people on food stamps and 7.8% unemployment. Of course that depends on whether or not you believe these statistics. That last unemployment statistic was heralded as a huge turn around from four years of 8+% unemployment. Of course you have to try to ignore the fact that they didn't include California in that total or the fact that many have just given up looking for work. With those two minor political inconveniences thrown in, unemployment totals are more likely 14%. If Obama was right and there was a need for change in 2008, then there surely is a need for it now. We just can't afford another four years of his brand of change.
I can't wait to pull that lever. Obama was given his chance, but four years of failure are enough.

We've already had incidents here during early voting where the machine "defaulted" to the Dem candidate when the Repub candidate was selected. The machines had to be "recalibrated" to vote correctly. Isn't it odd that I never heard of one "defaulting" to the Repub candidate...

Yup, read about this and supposedly the story is to help 3rd world countries advance during voting. BS, at least the Texas AG is taking a stand. ---> www.kbtx.com/home/head...56101.html

Some of Obama's new plans and old plans for America. Sounds like four more years of the same failure to me.

But perhaps it's not a failure in Obama's eyes. Maybe just part of a greater plan too large for us to fathom.
