Romney's The Man

It would seem like Obama is ripe for being beaten. Unemployment is not great, and IMO that may be the most important number to look at in any election. Then again Romney may not be the candidate to do it. I remember thinking anyone could beat that idiot Bush in 2004, but John Kerry was one of the least inspired candidates ever.

I still haven't forgiven the Dems for that.
 
I'm guessing it is because of his daughter.

It's his daughter as well as where he currently stands politically. If Romney loses in the general then he can conceivably do what he did this year(Romney) and run in 2016. If he were to draw this out and lose his home state of Pennsylvania(which could have happened) then he would have hurt his career going forward.
 
Is it just me, or do Romney and Obama seem pretty similar?


Politically, no. One is a moderate Republican and the other borders upon Socialism. That being said, they are both similar I guess in their personal standings. I believe neither can relate to the average American. Obama tries to pretend that he can now but he is also one of those hated 1% people.

Depends on what the etch-a-sketch says that week. Mr. Romney has never had a constant thought, word, or policy other than "SAY AND DO EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING TO GET ME ELECTED! I WANT POWER!"

Which... To me... Is scary. I understand politicians need to flip flop. But the amount Mittens has? Jeez. It makes you wonder if he really does have an independent mind. When will he become a leader? Once he's finally elected? Or will he constantly be letting others bully him around?

Holy ****....I hear Brazil is a nice place to live.

And it is. Ever eaten at Tucanos or Rodizios? Amazing food.

Sao Paulo is the "New York" of the country.

Plenty of jobs and foreigners there. I personally wouldn't really want to work in Sao Paulo. Travel 45 mins-60 mins south to Santos. One of the biggest port cities. Haliburton and Petrobras I heard are doing a lot of exploration in the "Santos Basin." I guess there are a lot of oil deposits off the coast.

If you're looking for paradise on earth, you would definitely want to travel up north to places like Maceio, Recife, Fortaleza... I'm guessing the job outlook has improved there and they're certainly modernizing... It just hasn't exactly kept up with places in the south...

I've been back a few times, it's a great place. I would love to live and work there. Summer all year long, beautiful country, cool culture, awesome people, etc.

I guess the drawbacks would be #1 salary (although.... In Sao Paulo they might not be that far behind... And if you get a job at an American firm, you can make bank) and #2 not being able to personally watch Jazz games. Which... Meh. You can get most sports, that you care about, NFL/NBA on dish. I remember seeing a lil bit of the Giants vs... I think it was Cowboys game. When Romo screwed up the hold... lol

And beautiful ladies!

Well If I was moving out of the country (which I will NOT do because of my kids) I would figure out how to watch the games online.

Japan, Australia, S. Africa and Singapore are also on my list.

Edit: Living in Brazil would also teach me Portuguese. Between that and my English and Spanish I would be set.

I don't know much about Singapore... Why Singapore? I guess I don't know much about it.

But Australia and S. Africa are definitely on my list as well.
