edit accidentally a word
hockeywings said:Of the independents, my beef is only with Lieberman. Hence why he is the only independent I referenced on why the supermajority wasn't really a supermajority.
He will most likely support a Republican Shays when he retires. Republicans support him more so than democrats http://hotlineoncall.nationaljournal.com/archives/2011/10/lieberman-prais.php
He was for the extension of the bush tax cuts. http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2010/09/lieberman-organizing-against-obama-on-bush-tax-cuts.php
He endorsed Mccain in the most recent presidential election.
And basically all of this: http://rightweb.irc-online.org/profile/Lieberman_Joe

It's likely to be Romney vs Obama and Romney faces an uphill battle according to oddsmakers, he's a 4-1 underdog to become President.
Every important indicator in the polls are in the wrong direction. Using historical data, Obama has little to no chance. To use a sports analogy, Obama's numbers are a lot like the Lions defensive statistics in the 0-16 season. Vegas is irrelevant. They aren't political scientists or historians.

This is why I wont vote for Obama. He's just more of the same. He's not even the slightest left of center on 95% of the issues.
MichChamp02 said:Obama WILL win re-election.
Here's what this means in practice:
- since Obama & his policies have been basically center-right, Wall Street & dept. of defense friendly, don't expect much to change.
- We'll keep our expensive presence in the Middle East, and our massively bloated defense budget. Social spending, i.e. medicare, medicaid, and social security will continue to be cut/eroded. Spending on other programs: research, regulatory enforcement (SEC, EPA, etc.) will probably stay stagnant, if not get cut.
- Republicans & the retards in the Tea Party will continue to scream bloody murder that taxes and spending are too high, even though they aren't, and haven't been since before Reagan. Even if you point out the GODDAMN tax rates to them, and compare them to what they've been in the past, they'll just wander away from you and go complain to someone else.
- Big Business, the US Chamber of Commerce, Business Roundtable, etc. will continue to scream bloody murder that government regulation is "stifling" business. Meanwhile, they will continue to pollute, fire workers whenever they want, trample over unions, and keep hoarding their record amounts of cash, while executive pay soars.
- Right-wing talk show hosts peddling "doomsday" talk of gay-communist-islamist-UN sponsored takeovers will continue to profit mightily, while their advertisers peddling gold, bomb-shelters, ammunition etc. will also do well.
- The NRA will continue to rake in the BIG $$$, because even though gun ownership rights have EXPANDED under Obama, both by state action, and direct action by him (signing the bill allowing you to carry in Federal parks), he's "TRYING TO TAKE YOUR GUUUUUUUUUUUUNS!!!!111"
