Hahaha, Visible Penis Humor mojo for Strangler Lewis!

Heh, the 3000th random political thought (Part Deux) was about co<ks and mojo. Welcome to the LoT.

Doesn't seem like Romney is completely dead yet - he has a lead (though a slim 38-35 lead) in delegate rich CA, and a national poll shows a 38-38 tie with McCain. There are Rasmussen polls just released today (or at least that I only heard about today).

Filed poll says 32-24 McCain as of today. Meanwhile, Obama's shot up to within 2% of Clinton in California, with 18% undecided. Too close to call.

Completely my bad. I misread and the 38-38 tie was in CA. Still what I've read today isn't 34-24 McCain, it's 33-29.

However, the numbers certainly vary. I've seen 38-35 Romney over McCain in CA, 37-33 Romney over McCain in CA, and anywhere from a 4-7 pt McCain national advantage.

Why do I bother to look at polls anyway?

Obama IS energizing young voters
 

I have seen it, right in my own family.

My daughters (15 and 18) are for Obama. They are actually getting involved. They are organizing a voter registration drive at their high school for the Wisconsin primary and very much looking forward to an Obama event on Tuesday night here (Mr. Wonderful won't be there but whatever).

Why doesn't this surprise me?

I love the government forcing the populace to do stuff.

Romney won the Gold in Maine yesterday 52% to 21%:)

You mean like passing a driving test and getting a license and paying registration, those kind of things?

Yes, i get the difference ... the new one is a regulation and tax on simply being alive, while the other is for the privilege of driving.

But make no mistake, driving has become central and irrevocably entangled with my, and millions of others', prosperous american lifestyles. And i don't balk that the government makes me do it.

If this is what it takes to improve healthcare significantly in this country, it will hardly seem more of a sacrifice of freedom to me than a driver's license or hand gun license.

It seems like a better analogy would be that since driving is so important to freedom that everyone should be taxed to provide all with a car and insurance. Afterall, it isn't fair that some people don't have a car or a reliable one. So let's garnish wages and raise taxes to force everyone who doesn't have a car to get one....it's only fair.
