The United States presidential election of 2012 is the next United States presidential election, to be held on Tuesday, November 6, 2012. It will be the 57th quadrennial presidential election in which presidential electors, who will actually elect the President and the Vice President of the United States on December 17, 2012, will be chosen. Barack Obama, who is eligible for a second and final term as President, has announced that he will seek nomination to be the Democratic Party's candidate in this election.

The 2012 presidential election will coincide with the United States Senate elections where 33 races will be occurring as well as the United States House of Representatives elections to elect the members for the 113th Congress. The election will also encompass eleven gubernatorial races as well as many state legislature races.

The 2010 Census changed the Electoral College vote apportionment for the Presidential elections from 2012 to 2020 in the following states. The candidates are: Mitt Romney, Sarah Palin, Ron Paul, Herman Cain, Gary Johnson, Newt Gingrich, and more, against the incumbent President Barack Obama.

Sorry about that. It seems to me that Rick did have some kind of verbal gaffe or other (a gaffe only to liberals, of course) that derailed his election effort.

T-Paw is one of them I really want to see gone. I am from Minnesota these days, and I cannot express how big a RINO T-Paw is. Our taxes kept going up and the State Government doubled in size and all he did was toot his horn about how much he had saved the State. (Which is now bankrupt)

From T-Paw’s answers to BOR it sounds like he passed the buck on taxation so local governments were doing the collecting.

Rick did have a minor gaffe when he compared Abortion to Slavery, while the MSM tried to make it a major hit, it received little traction. Santorum is not prone to gaffes and has had far less than the rest of the candidates.

Minnesota Care (Obamacare on a stick) is also something T-Paw had a chance to do something about but he punted.

Because of that Minnesota Care, the state is on the verge of the same deficits that Massachusetts now faces. And business is running from the state as fast as they can pack their bags.

‘who is eligible for a second and final term as President’=====

Just because they print it, doesn’t mean it’s true.
