One and done Obama must be shitting his pants wondering where all the love is. After all there are a bunch of kindergarten children out there who sang a song praising his name.

Once those kids turn 18 he'll be primed to win his 2nd term.

We can't get to excited, there's still a lot of time before Nov 2010.

You don't understand, Buz. The only cure for failed socialism is more socialism in the minds of millions of idiots.

He has a good chance to be reelected. Not because he is going to make the country better, but because an ever increasing number of people pay no federal taxes.

To this bunch of free-loading scum, all he has to do is dangle another tax-payer-funded freebie to get a significant number of votes. Add those that would vote for Satan if he ran with a "D" after his name and any dem has a fairly good shot.

Reckon unemployment and stagnant wages with less buying power now than in 2001 account for any of the 'scumbags' not paying taxes?

FYI only 2% of Americans receive welfare, which is time limited. Care to know the Top 10 states where the largest % per capita of welfare 'scumbags' live? OK.

The Top 10 from the U.S. Census Bureau:

Rank/State/Percentage living below the poverty level:

01-Mississippi 20.6
02-Louisiana 18.6
03-New Mexico 18.1
04-Arkansas 17.9
05-Kentucky 17.3
06-Alabama 17.4
07-West Virginia 16.9
08-Texas 16.3
09-Oklahoma 15.9
10-Tennessee 15.9

You may consider aiming your angst at the correct folks based on factual statistics.

The list of the top 10 states that receive more money from the Federal Govt. than they pay in are all red states too except one. Wyoming, Alaska, Louisiana are 1-2-3.

Highest per capita income (highest Fed Taxes paid per capita too) according to the U.S. Census Bureau? All blue but Wyoming, which is 6th.

The list of states with the most college degrees (who earn higher wages) is all blue, with one swing state, VA, on the list at #7 thanks to Northern Virginia (near D.C.)

Those are the facts which you can check for yourself at:

Here's another take on the welfare situation, from my limited exposure to it. As you may already know, I teach a "job readiness" class (interviewing skills) to adults enrolled in the "Work First" program. It's essentially the former welfare program.

Students are there because they are receiving dependent child benefits, daycare, food stamps and who knows what other benefits from the state. They are compelled to enter this program to remain eligible for benefits.

I don't know how many of these folks vote, but from their talks in class, they were pumped up about Obama. The class is typically all black women with an occasional white woman... and the very rare case of a male there. Most of the women are single moms, etc.

And so, while some states will, overall, draw greater state benefits, the individuals collecting benefits in my small sliver of the world are overwhelming Democratic constituents.

If the job situation does not significantly improve and if they increase taxes to support health care while the economy is as bad as it is. They will be voted out.

Communism? Really?

Hahahahahahhahaha

TIMEX-
I'm not disputing your research. All I was doing was offering a sampling of what I see in my daily life.
