I go to the University of Florida, and I can tell you the greek system here is strongly for Romney. I'm vocal about my support for Obama, but I'm probably one of the very few in my fraternity that supports him.
So in my case, if you're a member of a fraternity or sorority, chances are Romney is the "cool" option.
Well duh. They're all rich white scumbags.  LOL, Yeah I'm a gator too and I can that's basically what it is in the South.

Looks like Lindsay Lohan isn't better off than she was four years ago.
however its all self inflicted with her. She basically effed up her chance to star as Liz Taylor, hasnt done a movie in a while, and she gave her mom 40k to pay off her house which just ended up being spent on Colombian snow that they all used.

there you go again lying making stuff up. I understand you upset ryan lost the debate have fin being an republican opps i mean independent I'm not making 'stuff' up, watch the video. Joe Biden cannot defend Obama's record, it's a tough position to be in. Brushing it off as something funny, is not funny. Secondly, Ryan did not lose the debate, read the polls from CNN. Ryan won 48%, Biden by 44%. And ABC said it was 50%-31% Biden. But of course you know that. BREAKING NEWS ALSO CBS SAYS JOE BIDEN WON THE DEBATE So winning the debate by being arrogant, laughing, smiling and interupting his opponent while he cant defend his record over the last 4 years? Sure, I believe it. Hold up, didn't Romney steam roll the hell over Lehrer and Obama last week in the same fashion!? Didn't that make him presidential all the while waffling on positions he held over the last 6 yrs of running for office?!

Okay nice to see that VA is still favored for Obama, whatever lead Romney does have in some polls is small compared to Obama's. So VA goes for the President in the end. WI is something else. +3 for Obama?! I guess that's what happens when the electorate that gave Scott Walker more votes than they gave McCain are enthusiastic to vote again. Colorado?! Idk, that state does tend to swing away from the incumbent though.
Romney being Western matters a lot more than a lot of people realized. Regarding VA, McCain had several unique advantages for that state that Romney does not. Most significant is the Navy connection. McCain outperformed generic 2000-09 R in some of the VA beach suburbs. That won't be happening again, and Appalachia should also tighten. Romney will gain over McCain in NOVA, though. PS: McCain is very underrated. Holding the challenger under 55% in that economic environment was seriously impressive. Romney's Western!? This is the closest thing you'll get to western Romney.  LOL, that and cheesy grits are coming thru to save the day!

If Romney can't fix the economy in 4 years, I think it's time to look into third party candidates. Surely, the Democrats obviously can't get the job done either.
To answer your question, he'll have to lower the corporate tax rate for all income brackets, open up drilling in Alaska, California and other places domestically. Secondly, cut unnecessary spending in all government departments (sorry gov. workers, you have to learn how to live with less). Thirdly, balance the budget, it's out of control, the debt is over $16 trillion and no excuse for it being that high. Lastly, cut funding to foreign countries that hate us (Pakistan, Egypt, and middle east). We have over 24 million people that are unemployed or under employed and need full time work or any type of work, not other countries. Sure, these sound like Republican talking points, but it's a starting point that leads to something better.
There are other issues that I will bring up when they come to mind.
Government's been shedding employees for years now, if anything it's hampering this recovery. Especially since during the last recession Gov't payrolls surged significantly. Also foreign aid is crumbs to what the real whole is. That's lead me to scratch my head and ask, how does that fix the economy?!
