Hillary wins New Hampshire!

[Highwayman]

The word from some is that the election was rigged by the GOP. Check it out.

So let me get this straight...Obama's been winning all day up until the polls close

Does NH use Deibold???????

New Hampshire Primary - All Diebold. All the Time. Your thoughts?

From what I've seen on the news it's because of a large young peoples vote. What concerned me was the interviews of some of these young voters, and their reasons for their vote. Top reasons were "charisma" and "looked cool." Looked cool? WTF? just how old were these kids?

What has happened to our youths thought processes? While technology wise we are extremely advanced compared to our past, our mental maturity seems to have receded as much. 3000 years ago a 13 year old was trusted to rule a country, while today we can hardly trust them to go straight to school and back.

What scares me is to think what could happen if one of these screwy politicians decided to use the young voters? If one could rally all the potential young voters to go vote, it could make a difference in the outcome.

You wanna know what happened? American Idol...lol

They are the American Idol crowd. MOST (not all but MOST) 18 year old HS students couldn't tell you the difference between a Republican and a Democrat.

I saw where they(news team) had a board with pictures of Democratic, Republican and some actors and these kids, mind you old enough to vote, were asked who was who and they had no idea. In fact, I'm thinking they said it was 100% none of the kids asked could tell who was who by name or even Democrat or Republican. They had some black actor that most thought was Obama.

Sad and scary at the same time

[old timer]

with candidates that believe the bible is literal, that their god was a man that walked the earth, and that don't believe in science, etc... how can young voters take any of it seriously? And, yes that list should include candidates that think sleeping in the white house is equal to making policy, etc. Very lame group for the most part, isn't it.

And not one of them has called for the us to cut back 10 percent right now in our wasteful consumption........... not one that I've heard, at least. We're going deep into economic crisis -- euro worth $20 now and canadian dollar stronger than us dollar -- first time in my life for that.

Hang on, sell your property, save some gold. And keep the ammo dry.

Speaking of rigged elections....there is a very good documentary on DVD that I would recommend that everybody watch. It is very interesting and enlightening. It is called "Hacking Democracy." I couldn't believe some of the things I saw in it!

Just put it at the top of my next flix que. I'll let you know what I think. It looks interesting.

Not trying to steal the thread(really), but another documentary I have on my netlix queue that I thought looked interesting was one called "Maxed Out." It's about credit card debt, the national debt, etc....

Obama is doing just that and it worked for him in Iowa.
