Wowza, I thought that WAS combined income. TBF Aug 2015 #81

The main reason that Obama won was that people felt they could "HOPE" he would be better... cascadiance Aug 2015 #85

To be fair, there was change. He was NOT Bush's third term. merrily Aug 2015 #87

And that fear card is always played on us to avoid a change being made to the Democrats... cascadiance Aug 2015 #89

That was no fear card. It was a statement about Obama. merrily Aug 2015 #91

Yes, many of us pragmatically voted for Obama in that instance... cascadiance Aug 2015 #92
