Which candidate are you endorsing at this point JoeB?
Still going to vote for Newt, like I told you the last six times you asked me.

So you'll be voting to give Nancy back the gavel? Good on you
It seems the Republicans are most worried about Newt because they believe he could lose the House, not Romney.
It could be a really weird election. I expect President Romney will also retake the Senate and the House, but it wouldn't surprise me if the GOP lost the House as the electorate throws out all the bums.

YOu know what, guy, see my comments above on the 8th Congressional district.
I think that Newt would probably be better in teh congressional race. Given the way congressional districts are gerrymandered, he'd bring out enthusiastic Republican voters in safe and marginal districts. So although he's just as likely to lose the presidency as the Weird Mormon Robot is, I suspect the GOP would do better in Congress.

YOu don't think they are going to Hate Romney every bit as much?

No.
The fact that you do is not relevant.

Right. because the fact that he can inspire hate isn't relevent at all.
Honestly, Bush-43, as crazy nutty as he made the Dems, he was more likable as a person than Mitt is on his programmer's best day.

I'm an Atheist & I'm more tolerant of Mormons than JoeB is JoeB claimed to be an Atheist a couple weeks ago but there aint no way as one of his primary reasons for opposing Romney is his religion, as if they all aren't as equally far-fetched.

Well, no, I just have different standards.
Starting a religion because you have a different intrepretation of holy books than the established religion- i.e. Luther, Calvin, etc. - Morally nothing wrong with that, if you believe in an invisible sky friend.
Starting a religion because it's an easier scam than Gold Divining, and your idiot followers will let you sleep with their teenage daughters i.e. Joseph Smith and David Koresh - Probably just about everything morally wrong with that.
You don't need to believe in an invisible sky friend to understand some things are just wrong. You are preying on people's vulerabilities and fears. That's what makes Mormonism kind of contemptable.
Yes, just like black people inspire hate too.
"I hate black people. Some black people screwed me a long time ago. So now I hate all black people. I make lists of black people and won't do business with them. I certainly won't vote for black people either. Oh, did I say 'black people?' I mean to say 'Mormons.' "
Outstanding.
Now that the GOP is going to throw the election by nominating Romney and we are all going to have to learn to live with four more years of Obama, can the Democrats retake the House?
Maybe. Charlie Cook has an interesting article hereAll Stirred Up - Charlie Cook - NationalJournal.com, but here hare the raw numbers.
31 House members are retiring (18 Dems and 13 Republicans)
24 incumbants are "double bunked"- Two congressmen running for the same district. Only two of those are likely to produce a switch in party.
A total of 47 districts will have no incumbant at all...
Then you have massive dissatisfaction for both parties in Congress.
Now, historically, when an Incumbant wins, (as Obama will do, because honestly, Romney's a bad joke) he usually doesn't have long coat-tails in the house.
2004- Bush - +3 GOP- Mostly due to remaps in Texas.
1996- Clinton + 9 Dem
1984- Reagan +16 GOP
1972- Nixon +12 GOP
1964- LBJ +37 Dem
1956- Ike -2 Gop lost two seats despite Ike's win!
1948- Truman +75 Dem
However, the factor of redistricting combined with the fact that Romney is going to be an absolute trainwreck might put them over the top.
