This seems more relevant to election news: http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/10/...tgage-program/
A small step forward in the biggest bankster heist of all time. Quote:

And this ... makes it nearly impossible for any fiscal conservative to even *want* to be identified with the "new GOP".

Odds are high that this will settle for far less, no major convictions will be had, and it will drain more taxpayer money with no real punishment or reform. Countrywide was a terrible investment for BoA, and as a former customer of both I know that firsthand, but Countrywide had extensive money/property dealings with high ranking political officials and there is no way that will become something discussed nationally on MSM outlets. Besides, the settlement from this year was a good indication of how even state governments are more interested in using settlement money to help their budgets than screwed over homeowners. Remember Walker boasting about how he balanced the budget? You can thank part of that to a nice chunk of money meant for struggling homeowners.

"Agribusiness" (which primarily means huge conglomerates, not small family farms, like ADM and Monsanto) are heavily Bush because they don't want oversight into their practices. Example: GMO labeling, tracking meat sources to market, etc. Trial lawyers tend to support Dems for a variety of reasons, some good some greedy. Expect to have to use a stick on the MPAA/RIAA idiots with Dems at the wheel. The *biggest* thing that should leap out is the amount of 'superPAC' thank-you-Citizens-United money that comes from "anyone anonymous on the damn planet" basically. ========================== There's been some noise about needing international observers in key swing states. I'd say that couldn't hurt - the true answer is better than someone's preferred answer.

Oh boy...here we go with "who's to blame."
http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2...a-campaign/?hp Can't they wait until after the election. Obama hasn't lost yet...or does Matt Bai know something we don't?

It will be painful for the US and the world though ... The most morbidly interesting outcome would be Romney taking the White House and Congress flipping to Democrat control.

Honestly I don't think it matters who wins (of the two major parties).
They're both ruled by the corporatists (big banks, Unions, Wall Street firms, Big Pharma, and other monopolies/duopolies). We the people (normal citizens/small business owners) are screwed. Call me cynical, but I just call it like I see it.

COLIN POWELL STANDING BY OBAMA IN 2012 PRESIDENTIAL RACE
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Former Secretary of State Colin Powell, a longtime Republican, is sticking with President Barack Obama in this year's election. He told CBS' "This Morning" he respects fellow Republican Mitt Romney but thinks he's been vague on many issues. Powell said the president got the United States out of Iraq, has laid out a plan for leaving Afghanistan "and didn't get us into any new wars." http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories...MPLATE=DEFAULT |
