What happens when Rep. Paul Ryan (R-1313 Mockingbird Lane) addresses the AARP national conference? This…

‘Time and again the president has ducked the tough issues,’ Ryan said. ‘He put his own job security over your retirement security. Of course he said he would be willing to work with Republicans, but he has not moved an inch closer to common ground. When it comes to bipartisanship, it’s easy to talk the talk but there is only one man running for president this year who has actually walked the walk: that man is Mitt Romney.’

He was shocked that the crowd knew he was lying. The moment he mentioned 716 million, the boos started.

For people who love the sleeping giant meme, the GOP doesn't seem to realise the danger of alienating seniors. (Many of the "47%" Romney deried are retired, for example). If seniors start turning on them en masse, this is going to be a landslide.

Something to think about: Bernie Sanders was on MSNBC just now. He's concerned for the future of Social Security, even if Obama wins.

This might be a good time to write your representatives and also President Obama, asking that SS not be cut, nor the retirement age raised, in some deficit bargain.

Realistically, Social Security isn't much to start with now and expecting most workers to stay on the job until age 67 doesn't make sense given two factors: illness and job availability - and of course - there's ageism.
