Polls are showing Obama and Romney are running a close rate. When will they start to factor in Gary Johnson, and what affect, if any will this have on the race?
 
here's a factor. me, and my sister, are both sick enough of Obama not to vote fro him, nor stupid enough to vote for Romney.

That's 2 Dem's votes for Johnson in Florida. Watch out !!! could be significant like Nader in 2000 :rolleyes:
Ah. we do what we can do. even if it won't matter to the election, it does to us.
 
I'm also voting for Johnson. Of course, my state is safe for Obama, so it really doesn't matter much to the election.
 
Johnson will receive less than 700,000 votes nationally. This may be a factor in some swing states, but I think Virgil Goode (the Constitution Party candidate) is a bigger risk to Romney in what is perhaps the most undervalued swing state: Virginia. He used to be a Congressman there and is still popular in the state.
 
...that said, I think by November things will be so lopsided it won't even matter. Romney is going to make a clean sweep in Virginia, Ohio, Iowa, Florida, Colorado, and possibly New Hampshire and Nevada.

No polls of any kind reflect anything like that. And nothing like that will happen. But dreaming is dreaming. I don't want to wake you up if you are finding that one a pleasurable one.

You bring up an interesting point. The next move for the OWEbama loving media will be to trump up a third party candidate, whether it be Ron Paul or Johnson in an effort to replicate the Perot effect. Had Perot never entered the race we would have not had a Bill Clinton. Things are bad for OWEbama. The only polls the lame stream media are running are of adults and registered voters. They are oversampling democrats and the best OWEbama can do is tied with Romney. That spells mega trouble. Now the true sycophants out there (many on this board) will drink cyanide laced kool aid for OWEbama, but you obviously not of that ilk.

Truth be told, I am not fan of Romney in the least and if I didn't think OWEbama was so dangerous for this country, I wouldn't write in Calvin Coolidge and call it a day. I don't think Romney would do much better than OWEbama and I know in his heart of hearts he is one of those squishy "moderate RINOs" that I despise. But, I don't think he is dangerous the way OWEbama is. So I will probably hold my nose and vote for him. There were much better candidates to take on OWEbama, but the RINO establishment thought this was the best they had.

tue, but many just mindlessty vote the Party, or by their demographic. We've had very little discussion of "what is the plan" for next term.

Obama is banging on Bush, and the Republicans/Romney is banging on....his head against the wall.
Nothing is clear, no real discussion of "what would I do" -yet 95% of the electorate has already decided (source Chuck Todd)

Because as usual, the two major parties have rigged it so the third parties get no media coverage, no chance to participate in debates etc...

Johnson would crush Obama and Romney in a debate. So you will never see him. Instead, the sheep will be content with the same crappy two parties that have nearly destroyed us. The sheep like you will be content to let them lead us down the path of European destruction.
