    With what's going on in OH tonight and other interesting races around the country, looks like the OWS message is mounting.

    While good-intentioned... it's scary how unorganized and confusing political movements like the OWS (filled with clearly uneducated people) can sway a population so heavily...
    And this is coming from a liberal.

    OH rejected the anti-union law.
    ME reinstated same day voter registration.
    MS rejected defining eggs as people.

    OWS is infant. It hasn't learned to talk yet.

    I thought I have grown a pretty decent manifesto right here. It's taken 66 pages and maybe 200 posts, over a month, to get it to a point of clarity. I'm not sure why it hasn't swept the innertubes like wildfire. I guess I should consider sending back my George Soros ACORN Shill grant.

    You know your campaign is desperate when you resort to the "HE'S A HINDU!" card.

    Also glad Ohio repealed that garbage law. Good work Ohio.

    Why do you think the folks of OWS are uneducated? Please don't denigrate a movement without facts.

    I am not sure what you mean by poor, but their debt per capita is decent compared to other states. Do you mean their citizens make/have less in general (average income)? Ill assume you mean average income which is a meaningless measure. People go where the jobs are and low income jobs are in the south where they keep a low minimum wage.

    There's this new thing called Google you can use to look stuff like that up, but. Missssippi will rank at or near the bottom in the US for per capita income and education dollars per student, but highest in the nation for chlamydia and gonorrhea infections.

    A shining beacon.

    Doesn't take any longer than posting one of your pointless minutia video's. Try 'Mississipps Sucks'.

    poor/po͝or/
    Adjective:
    Lacking enough money to live comfortably in a society.
    (of a place) Inhabited by people without sufficient money: "a poor area".

    I disagree that the folks are so uneducated. They also are correct and much more sound in their vision for America than the miseducated elites who run Goldman and Wall Street. Thank you.
