"I got to start off on something that was really troubling that occurred last night," said the Wisconsin congressman and Republican vice-presidential nominee at the top of his town hall here. "Did you guys watch that Packer game last night? I mean, give me a break. It is time to get the real refs."

Their may be a "Method to their Madness".
The GOP is self destructing so fast, many may feel a need to throw them a vote, out of Pity.
The GOP is after the Pity Vote, I realize it sounds crazy, But no Party can be that inept.

I've been registered Republican since I was old enough to vote (though gradually more & more disenchanted with the party!) ... and I can't take this ticket seriously. It's like a bad joke.
Please, tell me how this is all for show to ensure Obama gets re-elected, all staged by TPTB... because honestly, that makes more sense to me than trying to believe this is the best we can come up with, as a nation. If so, we are seriously screwed.

It seems that the GOP has become one big joke and 'Romney/Ryan' is the punch-line.

It's like making a choice between two clowns at the circus. One clown has a sad face and is generally unpleasant. The other clown has a happy face but squirts you in the eye with that plastic flower. Which clown makes you less sad, less angry?
Not really a clear answer, I know.

Do you want the clown that is first term or the one totally unrestraint in the second term?
I guess if a person cannot figure that out we deserve Obama for a second term. I kind of hope he wins... I think America needs to get totally screwed to get better.

As much as I hate to admit it, you might be on to something. Stupid Americans aren't going to get their fat asses away from the TV until the house is burning down around them.

I know too many people with advanced degrees who worked hard who either make nothing or don't have a job to think that "getting ahead in life" works that way.

I guess you can say that....as you ignore the state we are in....
The funny part is you would most likely say how much you hate Bush, BUT Obama has taken everything he has done and amplify it by 10 times.
Would you care to debate anyone area?
Hell I'll even debate Obamacare where 90% of America doesn't need it and 65% are totally against it as it was forces through congress where NO ONE actually read it... lol
Economy and foreign policy are easy kills for me, so let's talk the constitution or his transparency of government that he also promise.
As I said before, I care little for I will do well under either, but will you?

Actually some of us blame it on the economic policies of Reagan, which started off great but set up the evils to follow, upon the unbelievably corrupt lobbying system in Washington, open almost all Americans living with a debt to income ration that was absolutely irresponsible - and upon the financial institutions which allowed this practice to continue through irresponsible issuance of credit and, IMO, predatory lending practices in many cases.
IE I blame misguided fiscal policy, irresponsible banking, and irresponsible consumers.
At least for a start. It's a very complex web of ideas, but the above is a reasonable simplification.
