Obama just won...

In Illinois, there is not a straight party option. It used to be, but not for the last several election cycles. I think straight-ticket disappeared in the mid-1990s if memory serves.
I did vote for Republicans though, because they're the candidates I liked the best-- or disliked the least-- as the case may be.

If there was a straight party I would join it.

So would a whole bunch of gays, lol - some for the 'protective coloration' and the rest because they have a warped sense of humor.
Don't you just hate knowing that?
Include the people that didn't vote as morons . That was 46% of eligible voters . Only 29% of eligible voters voted for Obama . Did those voters consider things like the economy , defense , foreign policy , or education ? No , the minorities combined to become the majority . Issues most important to them were race , immigration , and sexual disorientation .
Romney shouldn't have pushed so hard on issues like abortion and PBS . Voters knew liberals are for abortion . No need to rant against it and lose some of the independents .
Still , Obama was pretty popular with 100% - 113% of the vote in some districts .
Well , the GOP now knows what it will take to win . They won't give the Democrats 93% of the black vote again . Clinton vs. Rice is U.S. best bet for 2016 - Paul B. Farrell - MarketWatch
Absolutely. That was one of the options. Options 2-5 are voting moron.
1. Vote Romney
2. Vote Obama
3. Vote third party which is voting Obama
4. Vote write in which is voting Obama
5. Abstain from voting which is voting Obama

I don't. I was exercising my warped sense of humor as well.

Well Texas did it, they reached the goal for signatures on a petition to leave the US. It now requires a response from Obama which will likely be a rejection. There are still another 19 states waiting to get the signatures needed.

The number of blue states petitioning to leave the union comes as a bit of a surprise. Wassa matter, ya vote for the guy and then ya don't like him??? (Seriously--- New York??? Michigan???? I haven't looked at the last report, but I wouldn't be surprised if Illinois is petitioning too--- and we're Obama's home state!!!)

Maybe since so many of you know how this country should be ran you should have ran for public office, Romney was a douche bag, Obamas an even bigger one, but at least Obama is trying to look to the future, if we keep consuming our natural resources at the rate we are now our children won't bear the burden of debt there will be no debt because there will be now planet, at least he's looking into alternative energy, unlike Romney who is just fine with following out our planet and consuming every last drop.of coal and oil

The originator of the petition is one Micah H. of Arlington, TX. I seriously doubt the state of TX is behind this. And if they were, there would be more to it, than a petition on the White House's website.

I won't run, because I don't want to become a bigger A-hole than I already am. So there!
I already am president-elect. The rest of this was just for show, the fix was in as we say near Chicago. The Feds arranged it all behind the scenes, and I'll be taking the oath of office in January.
Do you think I could do any worse than the guys we've been electing?

Unfortunately, no one has found a way to run planes, trains, heavy trucks, etc on solar panels or windmills. We are an energy driven economy and the key to this nation's prosperity is to have available energy sources at our disposal - preferably our own. Obama is content to drive the oil, gas and coal industries out of business or force them to ship their products overseas to China and India so they can pollute the earth's atmosphere from over there. Keep in mind they don't have the environmental concerns prevalent in the US. But the result is their economies will continue to grow while ours remains stagnant.
We are decades away from viable solar/wind/hydroelectric options as Solyndra and many others so readily demonstrate. We need serious research in those areas. More importantly, we need intelligent serious research into those areas. That means very focused very limited scale research in the millions or possibly dozens of millions of dollars, not the billions of dollars Obama and the tree hugging morons readily waste while bemoaning the inadequacy of the expenditures.
In the meantime we need oil and gas here. We have more than enough resources if properly managed. That means out of the hands of bureaucrats and politicians who know nothing and care less about what is in the best interests of the nation.
