The rural areas, like where I live, always lean to the GOP. It's the large cities that will be the "swing" point. We're just hicks out here. Hyuck hyuck hyuck.

Also you should add better choices to your poll. ;)

Obama I think they're both in company's pockets from what I understand and Obama's such a smooth talk'n guy.

Besides all the changes a different government would bring would just be painful and cost a lot of money.

Of course this is just speculation on my part I don't know a lot about American politics beyond the fact Sanctorum was a psychopath, but he's gone now.
Scum of the highest degree and don't let charitable citizens tell you otherwise.

Yeah, I decided to go between the two candidates who might get the job. I'd love to see a strong Libertarian bid, but I don't see it happening this time.

Must say I'm sad to be the only 3rd-option-chooser. :(

Jubal

I might well vote for a third party if I was American, but by the wording of the question I'd prefer Obama over Romney. I just think the latter would be a disaster.

Winning the Republican candidacy ths year doesn't exactly count for much in the realm of sanity.

Interesting little test I've found http://www.isidewith.com/

Apparently me and Kent Mesplay are total bros at 86% agreement, in that case it's a shame he's green and well therefore never be in office.

I was with Obama and Mesplay the most, though I was in agreement with Johnson on domestic & foreign policy. I think putting science issues as high priority probably pushed Obama up (evolution and climate change in particular).

I noticed that Omegle is running Gary Johnson adverts, interestingly.

You sir, have won your good share of internets. It took me as while to find Mew in the bottom and understand the point of the weird placed text.

It's still neck and neck; Romney has the economy as his only real strength, as Obama seems to be more trusted as commander in chief and on social issues. That said, the economy is still by far the biggest electoral issue.

Johnson doesn't seem to be making enough news to get noticed at the moment, and seems to be losing rather than gaining ground in his home state of New Mexico.
