    Arrow The campaign is turning ugly

    Did Republicans deliberately crash the US economy?

    Be it ideology or stratagem, the GOP has blocked pro-growth policy and backed job-killing austerity – all while blaming Obama

    Seems like the Reps have put our many pro business ideas that were squashed by Obama.
    None of the Dems solutions can even get themselves to vote for. Dunno, seems like they whole lot are guilty.

    Oh for fucks sake there is one thing I can't hear anymore: This totally unsubstantiated assurance that increased spending, regardless of the debt crisis, would evidently be good and austerity inevitably be bad.

    The one where John Kerry ran against Bush. That wasn't all that ugly. It tried to be, with the whole swift boat thing, but I think Kerry was terrified of actually winning.

    Even that one, there was the smarmy trick of sending bulk Emails to college students saying Bush was going to revive the Military Draft as soon as he won with no deferments for college. At the time the ONLY person in D.C. who wanted a Draft was Charlie Rangel, not Bush. Sure their are examples on the GOP side as well.

    Campaigns wants us to pick sides. It puts those of us who mangaged to graduate the fourth grade in bit of a pickle. Because anyone with a brain can see some sides of the democrats stance that makes sense, while also agreeing with many issues the republicans stand for.

    Not a surprise the guardian is saying this. Where there's injustice, Republicans and Jews are usually afoot!
