[Vision2020] Romney's Promise of 12 million Jobs Obviously has NoEconomic Basis

[Joe Campbell]

Didn't he? I can't remember the thread but I do remember him saying on
several occasions that he doesn't vote. Not to rag on Donovan, who is
great and at least has reasons for not voting besides just being lazy.
But I do think all who can should vote. I also think that if we
encouraged everyone to vote it might make voting for a third party
candidate a viable option as opposed to a waste of a vote -- but a
waste of a vote is still a vote and I'm not about to tell people who
they should vote for. That's up to them. (Tom said this too.) Joe
