NBC News discussed its most recent Presidential Poll last night:

Obama v. Romney: Obama ahead by a point or two.
Obama v. Gingrich: Obama ahead by about 10 points.

Accompanying analysis:

Obama's poling results are surprisingly higher than one would expect. Romney has not been accepted by conservatives because he is too moderate, but appeals to Independents. Gingrich appeals to the conservative end of the R's and Tea Party, but does very poorly with Independents.

Most interesting point made:

This election cycle is ripe for a third-party candidate to get a notable number of votes, but they will be at the expense of the R's candidate.

Interesting, huh?

What we DON'T need is yet another inside-the-Beltway political hack whose campaign was bankrolled by donations from Wall Street banksters and Big Ag/ Oil/ Pharma. Nor do we need another slick talking empty suit, all smooth talk but business as usual when it comes to viable economic reform. This nation needs good private sector jobs and an economically healthy and independent middle class, not yet more government meddling and cradle to grave nanny state manipulation.

I don't really see any solution either. We've got millions of multigenerational Welfare parasites, a military involved in unresolvable Middle East political conflicts that have been ongoing more or less for two thousand years, an education system focusing on lowest common denominator achievement, a media that spins every topic until the real facts are unrecognizable, a southern border so porous that Gengis Kahn and the Mongol Horde could walk across in broad daylight, and a mostly clueless dumbed-down electorate that salivates on cue like Pavlov's dogs whenever a presidential candidate mentions the word 'entitlements'.

Oh yeah, in addition to all that, we're also stone-a$$ broke. The only thing keeping the rest of the world from dumping the US dollar as a reserve currency is, they still think we're the best looking horse in the glue factory. Most of Europe is in deeper hock than we are thanks to unsustainable spending on social engineering. China is in better shape but they're dependent on us buying all their crap so they can turn around and loan us back the money. Right now China and the US are circling the drain together until China's own citizens themselves can afford to buy the crap they make and sell over here. When that happens, they won't need our market anymore. At that point, we're pretty much toast.

I think Ron Paul is the only candidate who has any chance of steering the nation back on track. Or maybe Allen West. Maybe. All the others are just more of the same business-as-usual pandering to special interests and kicking the can down the road so our kids can clean up the mess.

Unfortunately, neither guy has a snowball's chance in Hell of getting into the White House.

Anyway, that's how I see it lately. I truly hope for all our kids and grand kid's sake I'm completely wrong.

That is EXACTLY what it is ... make no mistake about it ...

However competent and attactive one might find a 3rd party candidate to be, they are NOT viable ... either Obama will be re-elected or the Republican candidate will win ... there is no alternative ... voting for some other candidate may make one feel better on election day, but then there's 4 years of living with the consequence ...

Don't dash the Paulbearer's hopes and dreams.

Interesting for a biased NBC poll indeed.](*,)

Well, we DO have 'Dancing with the Stars'...
