"Anyone but Obama!"

Seems to me there's nothing about Rmoney Repugs actually like. They'll vote for him anyway just to get rid of the best president we've had in ages cuz he's a "black Muslim terrorist" and a "commie socialist".

Sorry to be such a Debbie Downer about this but it even in my mostly blue neck of the woods (outside Chciago) "Mittsters" are popping up more and more every day.

BTW, is it me or is Indiana actually turning RED? Why in the world is that?

outside of Indianapolis and maybe Muncie & Gary. It was miraculous that he won it in 2008.

That it was blue in 2008 is a quirk of modern history (note the word, "modern" there. I realize Indiana used to be bellweather blue).

Sorry to hear that he's rabid. I think they've got a vaccine for that.
