People saying that they are basing their vote on economic issues always make me laugh my ass off.

It translates into 1 of 2 things:

1) They are economic idiots (highly likely even if 2 is what is actually going on); or

2) That isn't the reason, that's the excuse. to vote for the guy/party/identity the are behind but they don't want to say that (or even actually realize it, themselves).

This is especially true when 1 of the two parties has exactly zero plans/policies that would supposedly "fix" the economy--unless you define fixing the economy as cutting taxes on the rich and corps and cutting spending on regular citizens.

I am laughing my ass off over that in order to avoid throwing up in disgust.
