Republicans are getting depressed under an avalanche of polling suggesting that an Obama victory is in the offing. They, in fact, suggest no such thing! Here’s why:

Along with the reasons given in the article I have to believe that Obama is going to lose a lot of Jewish voters. Democrats traditionally get about 75% of the Jewish vote. I'd say this year it will be more like 65%.

It depresses me to think either one of these pro establishment candidates will inhabit the White House.
We might compare the alliance between government and big business to the alliance between church and state in the Middle Ages. Of course it’s in the interest of both parties to maintain the alliance—but all the same, each side would like to be the dominant partner, so it’s no surprise that the history of such alliances will often look like a history of conflict and antipathy, as each side struggles to get the upper hand. But this struggle must be read against a common background framework of cooperation to maintain the system of control. Roderick T. Long

Mussolini described the alliance between government and big business as corporatism.
And this law, founded on oppression, upheld by force and fraud, intended solely to preserve ill-gotten power, or ill-gotten wealth, to maintain the dominion of an aristocracy, and the supremacy of a priesthood, to perpetuate the slavery, ignorance, and poverty of the great body of the people, the political writers of our day, call on all mankind to obey, as the only means of social salvation. Thomas Hodgskin

Think of the banks and corporations (big business) as the aristocracy and Obama, Romney and congress as the priesthood.
No matter which priest you "choose" the aristocracy always maintains it's control over "the great body of the people".

I think the Univision interview may have hurt him, though to what extent remains to be seen.

That you view Romney and Obama as equally evil is evident.
I wonder who would be worthy of your vote for President.
If you have answered this elsewhere I missed it.

Are you unwilling to answer it?
It was an honest question, with no ulterior motive or intended insult.
