What is Mitt Romney views on health care?
He has stated numerous times he would repeal "Obamacare" (The Affordable Care Act), which, ironically, is based in part of his health care plan in Massachusetts. For more information on want the ACA entails, Google it or look up the Reddit thread "Explain to me like I'm 5".
Currently the healthcare plan developed with his running mate Paul Ryan is based on a series of voucheres that would be distributed in place of Medicare. These vouchers would give seniors discounts to buy their own private healthcare plans. For more details on Romney's "Voucher-care" plan, look on his official website.
If anyone gave money to god, or to a religious denomination, with the belief that doing so would result in a favorable outcome of the presidential election, then they did so mistakenly, since the outcome of elections in the United States is determined by the electoral college.
-Another Answer-
Never have I come across any authority of the Mormon church teach that if we sacrificed money, we would be blessed with a Mormon president. I do know that God is aware of our situation. God knows all things. He knew the outcome of the election before the first vote was cast. That is not to say it was his choice. He must leave us to make our own choices. If we always received the blessings we desired just by paying money, faith would be non extant. How hard would it be to desire to follow Christ if everyone who belonged to the church and paid money got all they ever wanted, while everybody else did not receive their petitions of the Lord? Everybody would do it if it worked that way. God does not work that way.

Is it unhealthy to not wear underwear at all?
It is very healthy not to wear underwear, particularly if you suffer with thrush etc. as it keeps the area dry and cool.
Many women (and men) don't wear underwear at all. If you wear very short skirts then it is too alright. It does mean more laundry and/or dry cleaning as going 'commando'is very sexy and you tend to lubricate more with no panties to soak it up. Going commando lets the air blow up into your vagina and therefore it cleans it out!

Was Barack Obama expected to be re-elected for a second term in office?
Barack Obama won re-election in the 2012 November 6 election by a large margin and is currently serving a second term as president. Many people in the Republican party were surprised by the outcome and did not expect him to win the race. Republican Karl Rove, who acted as Senior Advisor and Deputy Chief of Staff during the George W. Bush administration, seemed almost astonished at the news of the defeat of former governor Mitt Romney while he was on the air at Fox News during the election night coverage of the election results.
Written before the president was re-elected, these are the opinions and comments of contributors about whether they thought he would be reelected:
An ABC/Washington Post News Poll has put President Obama and Republican Romney neck and neck. The re-election seems too close to call. Gov. Romney ran against President Obama in the 2008 election but was defeated. He is now the leading Republican candidate nominee because of the advantage he is with name recognition and his financial resources.
As of September 2012:
According to trading at Intrade (a world-wide prediction market), President Obama has a very good chance. As of mid September 2012, President Obama is listed with a 66.3%likelihood to win the 2012 election and that trend is going up daily. They have his opponent, Governor Romney, at 33.2%likelihood with a continuing down trend.
It depends, if the economy is good he will likely stay in office, but if the economy doesn't get better (seems like we're getting out of a recession) he may not stay in office.
He has lost some of the Jewish voters and may not carry 96% of the black voters again. He has a tough race ahead of him.
If the GOP continues to field candidates that are seen as too extreme, Barack Obama will be re-elected. If he is, many will see it as a triumph over extremist and blatantly misogynistic politics.
Nate Silver, a now much more well known statistician, predicted the President's win before anyone else and was spot on about the win and about the wide margin of victory. He is a writer for the NY Times and has a blog there called the 538 Blog. Keep an eye on his predictions on various topics.
Barack Obama will be reelected because the Republicans didn't give him a chance and the American people are well aware of this.
Note about how intrade works for predictions:
The Intrade site (link is in related links section below) is the world's leading stock-trading-style market (called a "decision market" or "prediction market") which attempts to "trade" the likelihood of various people being the next president, in the same way people trade stocks. While certainly not a guarantee, it's a good way to see how people who actually bet money on an outcome (instead of just answering a random poll) predict who the next President will be.
With Intrade, these numbers don't necessarily have to add up to 100%, the numbers are based upon active "betting" with investment on one or the other to win the election. Many believe this is a better and more accurate way to determine what people are willing to put their money down for, as opposed to getting the numbers from polling opinions.
Who was the first morman to secure the presidential nomination on a major party ticket?
Mitt Romney was the first member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) to be a major party's presidential nominee in the 2012 US election.
How do you condition a softball mitt in the oven?
i never used an oven to break in my mitt but a very good way is to oil your glove (you can buy glove oil at almost any sporting goods store), put a softball in the web, rubberband it, stick it under your matress as you sleep. this will not work by just the first time, i did it to my glove about 3 times and i already felt a difference as i played.
Did Mark Harmon support Barack Obama?
While some people mistakenly believe that Mark is related to actress Angie Harmon, a noted Republican activist, they are not related. Angie has been very vocal about her politics, but Mark has not. In fact, Mark has said little about his political views, so we can only speculate about which candidate got his vote.
Which debates did Mitt Romney win?
You technically cant win a debate. Debate's are supposed to be for the candidate to get his information to the general population ( or to help him get a vote)
What is the nouveau tech secret society?
Nouveau tect secret society is a non-religion base group that provides you with the tools to improve/develop your life in all aspect: money, romance, love, power, friends, family, ect... they teach you how to see the world on how it really is and the reality of things. Do not be confused and think this is related to "the secret." If you think you are gone to get something for nothing, well, it won't be found in the Nouveau Literature.
** The above is how the people selling "Nouveau tech" literature want you to view it so that you will buy it. It is a scam. They send spam mail to private people after getting your address off of mailing lists that have been sold by skeezy businesses. They got my name from Kevin Trudeau's company ( I know this because of subsequent research that i did to discover how they got my name and address) because many years ago I was stupid enough to buy one of his books. A few months later I got a letter from Nouveau Tech trying to tell me that they were sending me the letter because I had some qualities that meant that I was worthy of being in the elite. That they had had their eye on me for quite some time and that they felt I was ready, that it was "time" for me to take the next step in my mental evolution, that incredibly famous and powerful people knew about me and were just waiting for me to join their ranks. They tell you that all you have to do is to send a form back to them saying "yes" that you want to join in this society of the elite, and its ALL FREE!
Out of curiosity I sent it to them. Then they sent me a little pamplet of personal accounts of how Nouveau tect changed their lives! In no great detail of course, The letter was accompanied by an order form so that you could order the book with all the Nouveau tech secrets. It costs something like 200 dollars as i recall. It's a scam. It was obvious, so obviously I did NOT order the book.
I've since researched what it is and have found that it is, indeed pseudo-psychological and meta physical nonsense that is different from, but on the same level as things like "the secret" "Scientology" and any of those other ridiculous cons.
Don't be scammed!
Also, I had an answer to this before and the above poster deleted mine to wright that raving review. I will monitor this answer to make sure that if you delete it I will re-post. I will leave yours so that your "perspective" will not be censored and if you truly are an honest person who feels that what you say is true then you will leave this alternate point of view here as well. You are welcome to edit your response as you see fit, but should you decide to do so, please leave the following un edited so that others can know exactly what I am responding to.
Your original answer:
