Obama vs Romney

[Shockwave]

Hmmm,  I think they will vote for OB because the GOP candidate is a turd.  Combine that with the perception that the economy is getting better and maybe gas prices easing at the right time and there you have it.  

I don't think they will vote for OB because they don't want to admit they were wrong.  Many will just vote party line regardless.

Lol, this was my A. reason in the above post, and the biggest one. The other one was less common, but still there.

There is a lot of people that I personally know, that are invested with Obama SO DEEPLY that even when confronted with all the things he's botched, they falter and say "No, he's for the common person, he's the candidate for change and I dont want to go back to Bush". < --- dead serious.
They simply dont want and cannot admit that they were taken in by him, they still are stuck in his campaign fantasy land. This is something I have observed multiple times with my family and friends.

They want to believe his excuses, that its congress, that its everyone else but Obama, because they let themselves believe so deeply that he was going to bring them change. Its hard for people to admit they were taken for fools.

[Straw Man]

I believe you have also said there's no way OB gets a second term.  In fact you even went as far to predict that he would even run for a second term.  Does this mean you are changing you tune?

he also said Obama would withdraw before the election though way too much of a pussy to put any money on it

[Straw Man]

In other words - we have an idiot public who are wortheless sheep that can be swayed by lies from the messiah.  

Most obama voters are skells and useless parasites on this society.   Whoever votes for this scumbag is a traitor and a communist whether they want to admit it or not.      

dude  - I really hope Obamacare helps you get some desperately needed mental health treatment

Yes - I am in that after the Fluke nonsense - I have lost all hope and faith whatsoever that the so called swayable 20% in the so called "middle" have any real abilitiy to discern fact from fiction.  

Our nation is now in a cult of personality w a communist street thug pimping welfare scumbag like obama that is only made possible by an economically illiterate public swayed by communists in the media seeking to push an agenda.

Yep. Anyone who doesn't share your political views is a traitor.

Obama.....Romney is unelectable in the South as its been proven.  He can't win without the South

How do you figure, what do you mean undetectable in the south? I live in the south south and 90% of us whites are going for romney santorum or gingrich and will vote for whoever the repub nominee is. I woukd think the south, being as racist as we are, would never vote for.ovama.

Maybe I misunderstood your post but that is my thinking and expereience.

If it was Santorum or Gingrich, it would not be an issue.  However, Romney is a Mormon and the South will not vote for him as already proven with him not winning any Southern State.  It didn't help that Romney mocked the South with his Cheese Grits statement.

Quite frankly, since Romney will lose a number of Southern states, he'll get defeated and very badly

Well I can tell you who the losers are. THE AMERICANS THAT ACTUALLY HAVE JOBS, LIVE WITHIN THEIR MEANS, THAT ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILIES, AND DONT LIVE OFF OF THE GOVERNMENT.

Hardly.  "The South" will not support Obama.  They got fooled in 2008, like many across the country.  Not going to happen this year.  The people who voted for "not Romney" in the primaries are going to vote for him in November.  You're dreaming if you think Republicans are going to vote for Obama this time around.

4 more years of Obama will br four more years of total political warfare 24 7.   Sounds great!

Strongly agree. This was my exact thinking.

What happened to all the conservatives on this board saying it was a nearly a sure thing Obama was going to lose?

The GOP is in a sad state of affairs if it cant beat OB, considering how bad of president you all say he is (i believe he's as bad as you say), however, Romney?

when even mitt romney admits the economy is recovering...

bin laden and kadaffi are dead...

what else can the repubs run on? 

IMO, Mittens admitting things are getting better was HORRIBLE for their chances.  Obama simply has to say "Do we choose my path, which even mitt admits is working, or the paul ryan plan, drastically different, which mitt has endorsed?"


Mitt's only strength was on the economy, and he surrendered this when he admitting things are improving under obama.

You really have become little more than a leftist hack for obama.   I gave up all hope for you long ago.

I'll accept your insult.  Please, tell us though - was romney WRONG in saying the economy is getting better?  Yes or no?

[Soul Crusher]

Yes!  I dont give a damn what he says!  You wallow in spin and shell games, while most of the regular posters on this board destroy your nonsense easily. 

BY WHAT MEASURE ARE ARE THINGS GETTING BETTER?

I agree things are NOT getting better.  WE agree there.

My point is that the GOP nominee (and yes, he's gonna win it) disagrees with us.  He thinks things are getting better.  He admits it.

Now, if he is WRONG, then it completely undermines his entire platform that "I know the economy!"  If he gets this simplest of items wrong - how the hell can we believe he knows anything about the economy?   it's like claiming to be an expert on weather who can't tell snow from sunshine.  Romney wrecks his chances saying shit like this.

240, the economy IS coming back because that is what economies do after a recession. But that doesnt mean Romney thinks things are great. What he is saying is that this recovery is way more tepid than it should be. And this is why Barack Obama is so pathetic and is such a loser. People called Bush's expansion tepid, but Bush had atleast some months with 300000 + jobs, and that was coming after the most mild recession in history, which means that the expansion was supposed to be tepid. Obama hasnt had 300000 + jobs yet in a single month. People blamed Bush because the economy went into recession under his watch, even though he had 4-5 % unemployment for 5 years. Well, the economy has to go into recession roughly every 7-10 years. But the economy always recovers within 1 or 2 years. NOT so under Obama!!! After a nasty downturn we are having the most tepid recovery in history!!!

[tu_holmes]

Here's the problem.

If the Republican would overturn the patriot act, shut up about porn and abortion, get rid of government waste, balance the budget, and curb spending I would vote for him in a nanosecond.

He won't though.

Thats the problem.

Why vote for a white Obama when I have the real 1/2 black one doing the same shit already.

Question for 333336.

If Romney wins, what will he do different?

Serious question.

Because I don't believe he would do ANYTHING differently at all.

His policy history has already shown it.

Do you think 20 gives a damn?  He is a leftist troll whose understanding extends only to what msnbc and Obama spoon feeds him.  Garbage in garbage out.
