Now is the time for him to get to Florida and clearly explain his plan. Do not let Obama’s people define him as they have already started.

But young voters overwhelmingly sided with Obama by a 23-point margin, 53 to 30 percent.


But, if mommy and daddy throw their sorry asses out of the house the number drops to near Zero. I wonder how many of those will actually stop smoking doobie long enough to vote.

are you serious?

She is elderly but can;t get the proper ID, what on earth has she been doing for her life, ow does she get around, how does she get her benefits?

Sorry if you are serious and not a troll but that post of yours is what the elft state but I’ll also answer your question.

Why are we playing with voter ID laws.

Well it;s to stop illegals, dead people and those wanting to vote more than once.
Only the Dems want no ID but they demand ID for Amtrak, to fly, to get beer, cigs, etc

If someone has no one and lets say they have gone through life never having to show a photo ID which is impossible today then take her to the DMV and get the ID, simple isn’;t it.

AGREED

You need one for just about everything today , hell my MIL had to show hers 3 times before she even got on the train Amtrak.
What elderly person today does ot have the ID and canot get to the DMV
Asking why we need ID to vote shows why th eleft are just either plain dumb or ignoant

I know my elder relative is a lifelong conservative and she does not have the proper form of ID to vote now.

WOW.. just WOW!! A... er.... ah... Do you want to rethink that BS.. I'll wait..

We seniors have to pull out ID's almost every time we leave the house.. Medicine, wrote or cashed a Check, Travel, any Gov office for Social Security, Medicare.. or ever bought a drink, a bottle of beer, liquor, a pack of cigarette, cigar, pipe, prescribed pills, used a credit card with cash back..etc (rolling eyes)

He or she, has never had a hospital visit, driven an auto, or visited a relative in another state, by any other method than your overwhelming/sacrificial/humanitarian, volunteerism??

I think I'd love to know a bit more about your relatives' advanced age, 110+, and your unique generosity to our cause, and pearl clutching, advice..

Maybe we should watch out for all of these people that are still living in cages, and caves, OR, maybe we should just watch out for lurkers.. Hummmmm?.. jus sayin

Questions:
1) At what age must one be to be considered a Senior?
2) What percentage of the voting public are seniors?
3) How likely are Seniors to vote compared to other age groups?
Answers:
  1. 62 (that's when you get the Senior Discount at most Golf Courses and some Barbers)
  2. Pretty Dang Big (Since most live to 80. My MIL is 85 and like a spring chicken)
  3. A Lot More than the 'yute' vote. Seniors are 2nd behind, Middle Age Voters.
    ('08 was an anomaly. most yutes stay home on election day -- especially the Dem yutes)

    NOTE: The above is the best way I know of answering without 6 hours of searching Bing for Pie Charts and Graphs. (not trying to be sarcastic or disrespectful)


Now as to the article.....

No surprise with the numbers. 'Seniors' aren't like Moonbats who fall for mindless sound-bites. 'We' can all read and still comprehend what we're reading, unlike most Moonbats. And most of us seniors can still wash and dress ourselves in the morning -- also unlike the Moonbats

The fact is that the days of: 'The AARP Senior' are over. AARP screwed the pooch big-time by their lies and playing mouth piece for the RATS Commies (there aren't any rats left in the democRATic Party). I think AARP stays in business by selling insurance. Membership has dropped like a rock.

Gotta run now. This 'Senior' has to get out his Fender Statocaster now and Jam to some Rock and Rock. Think I'll warm up to Roll With The Changes by REO Speedwagon

I guess I am almost a senior since I am 60. But I have no plans to ever retire although my wife who is 62 is already retired. Not only do we support Ryan, we wish he would take Obama out behind the woodshed and whip his ass.

*** Okay, so why are we playing around with voter ID laws that will make it difficult for some seniors to vote? ***

If they can get a handicapped sticker for their car, they can get a voter id.

So does your relative live in New Jersey like you do?

I believe that NJ requires an ID only if voters didn't present one when registering. Has your relative never voted before?

Maybe the seniors are starting to realize you can’t collect medicare benefits, RX benefits, etc. IF THE PLAN IS TO LET YOU DIE because you are a drain on the system.

Thread worthy. Dems are going to push stories about Social Security BECAUSE they think it works for them.... Why those stories are pimped here is beyond me... Anyhow, your reply tsowellfan was wonderful - should be a stand alone thread.

My guess is that M & D are able to smoke doobie and still vote.
