What can we expect when the crippled gop get 4 more years of Barack Obama? [View all]

I've been wrong, several times, but I'm betting $10,000 that there's no way romney/ryan/akin can win now that the rock has been overturned and the ugly side of the gop has been so glaringly exposed, (Thank you Lord)!, I'm beginning to think the only way the assholes can win is the old tried and true republican way, CHEATING.

I think we're seeing the total implosion, the titanic sinking of the republican party, they've been eaten alive from within, and it's all their own damn fault, no one else to blame, not even Obama.

It's a gift from the Democratic God! Maybe todd akin's big mouth has turned things around completely toward our side by revealing the horror of a romney/ryan/rape/akin run nation.

I know I'm not supposed to count the chickens, or votes yet, but if the election were held next week............?
