Obama drops another point in the national polls, and for the first time McCain takes the lead in Ohio polls.

This supposed to be a political forum, and there have been no posts on this thread for the past ten days.

Sad and lame.

So my question is this:

How long will the love affair with the US last once Obama get's his new drapes? (I am presuming he will, cause the alternative, whilst possible, has a predictable post game.)

I am putting it here and not starting a new thread cause it is mainly Mattus i want to hear from.

Frogen, shut the fuck up. I wanted to say that in advance, so i can keep my promise that i will not respond to your idiotic drivel.

Don't bother, cyn. This is no longer the place for threads like this. :|

It's a lefties' board, but some opposing views and very entertaining.

Can do.

You and Mattus agree away.

Why should I enter an arena with "men" who only want to hold hands and slobber the same palms?

Our dear God must be suffering much, as you forgot to capitalise the start of a sentence and the word God.

I won't call you on the obvious fact you have never read the psalms, that is a given.

The Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away.

Cynik, you should be expecting a big refund this year.

"THE time has come, Senator Barack Obama says, for the baby boomers to get over themselves."
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/21/weeki ... ref=slogin

footnote- "Mr. Obama would be foolish to run solely as the anti-boomer, Mr. Lehane said, if for no other reason than that the baby boomers are the largest generation in American history, and they vote."

And they still cling like a pack of decrepit desperados to power:-

"The over forty fives are ageing with attitude and the Baby Boomers Lifestyle Expo brings together everything baby boomers crave as they burst into retirement."

"If one considers how the interaction between aging and the medical revolution is likely to ratchet up the pressure on health spending—potentially, far beyond existing projections and expected growth in GDP—growth in the aging-driven cost of Medicare will further accentuate the massive shift in health resources from people of working age to the elderly.
The main beneficiaries of the higher taxes and higher health expenditure will not be the proportionately smaller base of taxpayers of tomorrow, but the significantly larger number of retir­ed baby boomers. Demography and tech­nology will change the balance of rights and obli­gations between the generations in ways that raise real concerns about intergenerational inequity, if not conflict."
