If a vague threat doesn’t do the trick the next threat will be EVEN MORE VAGUE. The vagueness will escalate until a resolution is reached.

RepackRider commented on the blog post Moron Labe
When responding to moronicity of this degree, the question, “What could possibly go wrong?” is hardly sufficient. The question is, “What could possibly go right?”

Fortunately for Mr. Friedman, there are still “jobs” that pay great and require no knowledge of anything.

RepackRider commented on the blog post In Candid Moment of Acceptance Speech, Obama Vows Voting Reform
Where I live the voting system is perfect and virtually fraud proof.
I get a ballot in the mail. It only comes to me. I can return it by mail, or drop it off at a polling place, which I did. In and out in a minute, no waiting.
Because my signed envelope is kept after the ballot is removed, there exists a signed receipt and a paper trail that I voted. The ballots being counted must match the number of signed envelopes they came in, making it impossible to change the number after the fact. If there is any question, the voter can be asked whether it is indeed a proper signature. The ballot itself has circles that are darkened so they can be read optically. It is a physical ballot that can be counted by hand if necessary, not a bunch of electrons that can be messed with.
To recap, I get the ballot at my PO Box, so only I can get it. When I return it, my signature is on the envelope, proving for recount purposes that my ballot was accepted and that it came from me.
How simple is that? Too simple for Florida, apparently.

RepackRider commented on the blog post Time is Running Out For Romney
I realize that your post is in jest. This cherry-picked analysis with no methodology or numbers or attribution is the most amazing piece of whistling past the graveyard I have seen to date. Baghdad Bob sounded pessimistic by comparison to this. By publishing this crap, Politico has surrendered any vestige of credibility.
If only the GOP pollsters and cheerleaders who will be shown wrong soon would accept that they are terrible at the craft and go away forever. Unfortunately, in the modern GOP, failure merely boosts you to the next upward rung.

RepackRider commented on the blog post Thanks all five of you — non-politicians
Law of diminishing returns is kicking in on the PACs. The percentage of voters that it is possible to influence is small and shrinking. Every vote you buy makes the next one more expensive. You can’t maintain an exponential rate of increase in the cost of votes.
It’s a bubble.

Did the money dump improve the economies of the “battleground states” in any respect? Would an improved local economy have given votes to Mr. Obama?
Just askin’.

RepackRider commented on the blog post Too Failed To Bail
Who could have imagined that running a campaign with Republican financial strategy would fail? Was there ever a better example that Romney is not rich because of superior business skills, but by the accident of birth?
Apparently all the $ arrayed against Obama ran into the Law of Diminishing Returns, where every new vote cost more than the last. Once the next vote costs the Republicans a million dollars, they’re out of the game.
