Best guess yet. He's doing fine.

You can bet one thing, with his money, he dosn't worry about what anyone on this board thinks. I wouldn't, that's for sure. I doubt anyone on this board has been near as successful as he has or made near as much money. Analize that. In the wind.

All of ya'll that are so gleeful of how the election turned out, just remember that come the first of the year and you are paying 18% more in taxes for a start.

Economic success is nice but it is not the important thing in life, nor does mean you have had a "successful" life. No one on his deathbed ever wished he had spent more time in the office. Success in life to me is related to having good relations with family and friends, and we have no idea as to the quality of his friendships and relationships. They may be good, they may be terrible. Appearances can be deceiving. I hope he has had a good marriage and family relations, i.e., being a success in life, but none of us know that for sure.

Not me. I'm part of the 47% that Romney doesn't care about. I'm collecting social security and my income is no longer high enough for me to pay taxes. If the Republican party keeps insisting that the rich shouldn't pay more taxes, the burden of that will fall on the middle class.

You mean the 47% that pay no taxes I guess. Wake up MP, the burden will fall on middle class with or without your "fair" increase on the rich.

$250 billion over 10 years is what Obama was asking for. $25 billion a year to fight a multi-trillion deficit, where the hell do you think the difference is going to come from?

If you think "big money" didn't get what it wanted you are delusional.Big money got exactly what it wantd. It just wasn't Mitt Romney money or his money that got it. Obama spent a billion dollars more or less to get re-elected. Most of it demonizing Romney and those that have succeeded and driving a wedge between the haves and have nots. It may not have been Obama's money but it most certianly was "big money" supporting Obama and what got him re-elected.

Michael my friend your the perfit example of why the country is as it is. You have NO stake in how WE, the working folks, are to be taxed. Yet you vote for higher taxes that YOU will not have to pay. I have alway felt that ONLY those with a stake in a thing, should have a say in a thing. You prove my point every time you post. And that my friend is sad beyond words.

All indications are he has a good family life and is well respected in his church and community. Given the scrutiny he has been through the past year or two I would say if there were any problems in his family or personal life they would have come to light. Forgetting politics I would wager from what we do know of Romney's personal life and Obama's I would consider Romney the much better man. We know he has been involved in charitible work and not just by giving money but by giving of himself as well. Obama has a history of miserly charitable giving prior to becoming a Presidential candidate. Both men seem to be good husbands and fathers but I would much rather Mitt Romney have my back than Obama.

I'm sure Romney speaks Chinese from doing business with them all these years.

It was only a few short years ago that Michael was part of the working class. He put into SS the same way you are doing now. Are you going to refuse your monthly SS and give it back to the treasury?

Sheesh! Thats pretty self rightous and self centered there. Another lover of the consitution that wants to take someone's right to vote away. You think the right to vote should only apply to people like you.
