So we could have our first black-pink government.

Does OVP prefer NEOS to FPO?

Oh yes! The FPÖ isn't a right-wing party similar to Republicans, it's a far right populist, xenophobic, anti-EU party.

So this creates an interesting logic problem - if this poll (as I assume it will) indicates a consensus for "yes" I'll have to start basing my opinions on the forum consensus.

Any of these VP choices would be a stronger candidate than O'Malley himself.

Maybe he should pick this guy then:

Too charismatic, he'll outshine O'Malley every time they appear together.

I think this poll is another outlier, and this race is still a toss-up. Ed FitzGerald is a brilliant candidate. He has shown by being the mayor of my city, the Cuyahoga County Executive, and the best-looking politician in the country, that he can win this race and that he cares about the people, unlike the people who are looking out for their own interests. However, John KaSick and Jon Husted's racist voter suppression tactics have shown that in reality, Republicans are desperate to win this race.

I will be waiting for a reliable pollster like PPP or Rasmussen to poll this race before trusting Kasichpiac. It is clear that Quinnipiac's pro-Kasich bias is skewing these numbers In addition to the sketchy numbers, voter registration does not add up, saying that this poll is 29-29 Democratic. They clearly should have been sampled more Democrats, and it shows that FitzGerald is a perfect candidate for the job.. In a reality, if this poll was real, Kasich only leads by 45-40, which puts FitzGerald in a perfect place to take the Governorship. Once people learn about Republicans' assault on blacks, women, and gays, and that FitzGerald will #KeepOhioStrong, they are doomed.

Brilliant.

Massive Republican wave, naturally.

If you people seriously think that the death of an American Ambassador, a great representative of the public service, is going to go unnoticed any longer you are clearly insane.  Nobody thought that the Watergate Breakins were a serious issue in 1972 when Nixon won a landslide, what makes you think that we are suddenly going to give up because Obama and his race baiting socialist cronies pulled a fast one on the American public in 2012?  If this were just some innocent mistake, like the Great Ministry of Propaganda keeps insisting it is, then why oh why can't Hitlerly and crew give us a straight and honest answer?

I mean for crying out loud, it's Benghazi damn it!  Dead bodies!  An ambassador murdered on American soil!  An aloof and careless Executive who blames "Islamophobia" first and terrorism last!  BENGHAZI!  HOW MANY MORE TIMES DO WE HAVE TO SAY IT!?  HOW LONG?  HOW LONG MUST WE SING THIS SONG?

Instead of straight answers, the Administration and it's tyrannical allies, like Hitlerly, have evaded all reasonable inquiries into the death of a faithful public servant.  Whatever they say are going to be lies, and the American people know it!  And they will show that they know it when they elect a massive Republican wave in the House and the Senate!  And just to think that this could've all been avoided for the Great Messiah and his army of cronies if he, the Secretary of Statism, and other members of the Administration gave us the straight story straight from the beginning!

As far as I'm concerned, there is no greater issue than Benghazi.  American democracy and the will of the people, and the future thereof, will be decided by how the American public and the law system responds to this great calamity.  Those who think otherwise, well they are just as criminal and fraudulent as the statist Islamophiles that allowed this to happen.  That such liars, cowards, and moral degenerates can get elected now days is testament to how much this nation has fallen.  However, the truth of Benghazi shall prove to be so overwhelming that everybody and their grandmother will kneel and confess aloud that Barack Hussein Obama II is a crook.  For all of time his name, and the name of the Traitor Party that follows him, shall be associated with corruption, lies, damned lies, and more damned lies.

Seriously, no chance in hell libs.  It's time you start applying for welfare, cos your asses are getting kicked out come November!

Oh lawd I pray this is sarcasm

It clearly is

You dare question my sincerity lieberal?

The only people who are sarcastic are the meanspirited and downright immoral and corrupt liberals who seem hellbent on forcing every state and city ever to accept gay marriages while bowing down hand and foot to the Islamic fascist forces in the Middle East!

How dare you question me sir?  HOW DARE YOU!?

From now on, consider this the Benghazi Channel!  24 hours a day! Seven days a week!  Until American knows the truth!  Damn it!

If the forum consensus is that Obamanation is an awful poster, does this mean oakvale and him are now best friends?

Would an international friend zone be something along the lines of the following?

israel: hey palestine can we have all your stuff

palestine: no can we just be friends

israel: god palestine you're such a bitch i hate you

Too bad the voters of Ohio disagree with you.

Hillary was an unapologetic supporter of the Iraq War.

Next question.

The Republican who beats any non-Hillary Democratic nominee will be too.

I didn't realize Hillary was a Republican too! Now that you mention it, that makes a lot of sense...

Progressive Realist's post probably also belongs in the simple truths silver mine.

I'm hoping to start recycling more of my trash in the near future, FTR.

What are the potential obstacles you may encounter on this admirable quest?

Time for a lawsuit against the right-wing school officials.

How is this right wing?

Sometimes I get the feeling that something traumatic happened to you as a child, perhaps a vending machine ate your dollar, and you swore to forever hate all things free market related. In your anger you began to associate anything bad in your life with the "right wing". Your bike got a flat tire, "Damn capitalist tire manufactures!" A fellow OWS person accidentally steps on your toe at a rally "Watch it you teabagging fascist!"

You may benefit from talking to a therapist about this.

I'd love to see a reverse article interviewing a bunch of millionaires in Manhattan and Connecticut and then proclaiming that the GOP is wrecked because it's losing its core constituency and needs to run a Mike Bloomberg to win those people back.

That article would be missing the point on roughly the same scale.

I did my best:

Falls Church (United States) (AFP) - Jim Feltner's days are empty. He is a rich man in one of the richest counties in the United States and has never used unemployment benefits or food stamps in his life.

But the Northern Virginia resident has nothing but scorn for the Republican Party, which wants to relieve people like him of the burden of paying for those who actually do use food stamps and unemployment.

Feltner sits in a hard wooden chair at an Au Bon Pain in Alexandria, his MacBook Air perched in front of him.

People around here, he says, are "thriving, indisputably. I know, because I'm one of them."

Armed with two master's degrees, he lives off a salary he receives working as a healthcare management consultant in Deloitte's public sector consultancy practice.

Feltner voted for George H. W. Bush in 1988 when he was an undergraduate at Tufts University, but now says: "I will vote for anybody against the Republican Party."

"I don't care who the Democrat is, I'll vote for him or her. I don't care if they're a pedophile, a convicted felon, an Indian, a Pakistani, even someone who attended an SEC school!"

"They talk about this Real America and Fake America and make fun of the president for going to Harvard. I mean, I did post-graduate work there,'" Feltner alleged.

"Is that something for a major political party to say?," he added. "They have a problem with the educated people."

The same aversion to the Republicans is heard to the north, in Suffolk County, New York.

Alison Dahlberg-Tate, 38, whose necklace of pea-sized pearls hugs her slender neck, says she does not care about politics. She hasn't thought about it since her senior seminar at Sarah Lawrence. But one thing is clear: she does not like the Republican Party.

"I guess Republicans just worry about money in their pocket, what they and their friends are doing. They're not worried the poor, about the women, about the people who have been victimized in this patriarchal society," Dahlberg-Tate said, stepping onto her sailing yacht.

"The Democrats, they are the ones who get us," Dahlberg-Tate added, as her husband Hugh Marsden "Skip" Tate, IV, climbed aboard the vessel with a picnic basket.

"And what if we make poor women pay for birth control? I mean we might as well be in Somalia," Dahlberg-Tate said. She and her husband receives $3,800 each week from the H. M. Tate, Jr. Family Trust, the bulk of which goes to supporting their dogs Millie and Beckett. Skip's freelance public relations work for a New York City-based tech startup is their only other source of income.

"It's unfortunate, when the checks come out, there's a festival atmosphere in the bank," said Mike Bryant, director of client relations for Northern Trust's wealth management division, which oversees the distribution of trust fund dividends to their heirs.

"If someone dared say, I already paid for four years at Haverford and grad school at Yale and you're not getting anything else out of me, it's going to be a really awkward Memorial Day Weekend at the Cape," he said.

The Tsar's hysterical behavior only shows the world he has suffered a mental breakdown and is therefore medically unfit to exercises his authority.

There is no other option but to recognize that the Tsar is incapacitated and wait for anyone, who is really in charge in Petrograd, to speak of Russia's behalf.

Ottoman Empire's out.
