Place Your Midterm Election Bets.

I'm betting either the Republicans gain massive seats in the senate or are one seat short of the majority.

I'm betting that Greg Abbot will become the next governor of Texas.

I'm betting Obama will step down and Romney will take his place.

I'll take that bet.

I'm betting that the actual losers of this election will be the American populace.

GOODNIGHT, EVERYBODY!! /theme music

I will bet that we will not have UN observers to check the honesty of our elective process.

Why again should the UN check our elective process?

I was inclined to vote for calc, but I heard there is a 16 pager due for English so going to have to vote for that.

I'm betting that, no matter who's elected this year, nothing will get done for the next 2 years.

If we have a Republican Congress, Obama would just veto everything cause it's highly unlikely that the Senate would bypass the veto.

If we have a Democrat Senate, Harry Reid will just continue to shelf anything from the House, so nothing will get passed again.

Either way, Obama will just continue his rhetoric of "Congress isn't passing anything I like doing anything again, so I'll just legislate by executive order."

I'm betting most Americans won't vote !

They have more important things to do like vote for the next American Idol.

We need a new vote or die campaign. Get the youths out !

NSFW !



P diddy representing 313 and so on !

I'm betting this will be a massive waste of taxpayer money that will be overlooked on an "Us versus Them" mentality, justified elaborate election spending, and *if* the Dems win, "voter fraud" or "indoctrination" parroting by the extreme republicans about "dey turk urr jerbs!" despite not wanting to do the jobs themselves.

And I'm betting that this will all be a giant waste of time, that *if* the Republicans win, there will be faux moral outrage by the extreme democrats, which don't really represent any kind of acceptable liberal values, claiming that only racist, evil, old white folk bent on sending jobs overseas for cheaper labor and faulty products, are the only ones in power.

So... I guess what I'm trying to say is...

I'm betting it'll be Business as Usual.

Speaking of waste of time anyone catch the hockey game last night ?


I'm really disappointed when the team I'm geographically located near lost !

first of all... you can't take both sides of a bet.

second, if you were going to do this properly you should have created a list with all the close races so people could bet on each one.

my money is on republicans take colorado because the democrats are too high to care enough to vote.

and then nobody cares and we spend the next two years the same as the last six trying to fix the blame rather than fix the problems

I care!

Hopefully this is good news for Massachusetts!

Personally Martha Coakley reminds me too much of Alice Drummond (Ray Finkle's mom in Ace Ventura) to get my vote. Plus she's a communist.

Anyone from MA? I know a few of you are.

Lets get some ballot questions feedback.

#1) Yes
#2) No
#3) No
#4) No

P., not W.

Well, would you look at that! I was going to put money on you saddling up for Spicybrown Sanchez this year. Fooled me! Someone has to pick up Kinky Freeman's reigns!

No Green Party, KN? WHY?

I don't know who I'm voting for probably whoever hands me stuff right before I vote. Got to love those people !

Greg Abbot cause I do think he is a better choice for the state than Wendy Davis.

John Cornyn cause he hasn't been bad as a Senator for us. At least he isn't Ted Cruz.

Dan Patrick/Ken Paxton/Eddie Zamora cause their opponents suck. Less of two evils type of thing.

George Bush just to piss off the liberals of the nation.

Errr...Did you miss the joke there? That should have been a relatively easy Texan inside-joke to pick up on. :/

I guess so, I'm so tired right now lol

BTW Zah, what's your idea on Texas Proposition #1?

I'm all for it. Maybe they can get the hell road...err...I35 done a lot sooner that way...

MA Liberal rag endorses republican?

Is this real life?

I need to do some researching~ but definetly voting for abbot

Here's one strategy Democrats aren't using: The "war on women" rhetoric

Nasui you wouldn't know a communist if one bit you in the ankle.

Long ago, in my wonderfully misspent youth, I could distinguish between at least 9 flavors of communists by year and vineyard.
