The choice we face in the coming election has never been starker. Those who understand that we are all in the same boat will vote for President Obama. Those who think a dog-eat-dog world will make us wealthy will vote for Mitt Romney.

Do you stay on the boat if it is sinking?
Let's see... George Bush drilled holes in the bottom of the boat, and Obama plugged them and started bailing. Now Romney's ready to cut through the bottom of the boat with a reciprocating saw. I'm voting Obama.
kate2468, Are you voting Obama because of his record? Why plug the holes and bail when you can get off the boat and start over?
Yeah, the Obama boat that is sinking. Or the one that is up sh*t creek without a paddle. My dogs would vote for Romney.
And your dog has about the level of cognitive thinking of the average Romney voter. Thanks for the clarification. P.S. Why is it that these Romney partisans think swearing boosts their "arguments"? It is tiresome.
Your over-simplification (and categorization of others) is poorly constructed in light of the complex situation voters face. And does your vote hinge on just one topic, perhaps?
