Top Liberal Calls for Eva Longoria's Resignation from Obama Campaign
 Breitbart ^ | 18 Oct 2012, | John Nolte

Posted on 10/18/2012 1:57:37 PM PDT by


After re-tweeting a tweet that declared as "stupid" any and all minorities and women who support a "racist/misogynist twat" named Mitt Romney, and then attempting to cover it up Anthony Weiner-style with a bizarre tweet blaming Twitter for "things in my timeline" -- actress and Obama campaign co-chair Eva Longoria is now learning something about accountability.

This morning, Longoria was forced to tweet out an apology. Now her resignation from the Obama campaign has been called for.

For high-profile Obama supporter, Alan Colmes, it looks as though Longoria's apology was too little and way too late. Today on Fox News, the Democrat called for Ms. Longoria to resign from her high-profile perch on the Obama campaign.

the only problem with that tweet is that they should not have called Romney a twat

That's somewhat factual. Obama's first term debacle has been well documented. Failed policy after failed policy, Obama's abysmal record is inescapable. With that in mind, I don't think it is premature to forecast the continued failure that would result from a second term. I guess you can at least plan for disaster in advance. However, that is a pretty hard sell as the lone reason to re-elect a politician. Four more years of managed disaster? We'll see on Nov. 6th

great insight as always

I have to admit that things were pretty awesome when he took office and they are a lot worse now

if he "fails" as bad in his second term as he did in his first that would be fine with me

Making a direct gender-pitch in hotly contested Virginia, Obama tells a college crowd that when it comes to issues important to women's health and jobs, Romney has conveniently overlooked his past stands.

Winners act like winners. Losers act like losers. And according to members of the same media elite who have spent months protecting him, Barack Obama is now looking like a loser in the closing days of his reelection campaign. This morning, a few members of the elite "Gang of 500," including Time's Mark Halperin, The National Journal's Ron Fournier, ABC's Terry Moran, and Politico's Roger Simon, publicly voiced their disapproval of a campaign they describe as "belittling," "not confident," "peevish" and worse:

@TerryMoran

The Obama campaign's tone right now--snarky,belittling--seems off for the closing days. Like McCain's "celebrity" attacks. Kind of flailing.

Uh, oh.
 
In 1984, President Reagan ran on "Morning In America." In 1996, President Clinton ran on a "Bridge to the 21st Century." In the final days of successful reelection campaigns, both Reagan and Clinton offered a unifying message meant to bring the country together. Their closing arguments were uplifting, forward-looking, and optimistic.

Flash-forward to 2012 and all we've seen from the man who promised us hope, change, and a new kind of politics is a nakedly cynical divide and conquer crusade that's only gotten worse in its closing days. While Romney focuses his closing argument on the future, his agenda, and the realities of governing, our president is literally going all in on Big Bird, contraception, Binder-gate, "Romnesia," and aids flanking him at rallies holding signs that read: "Women's Health Security."
 
This smallness and naked desperation is not only apparent, it's familiar. I don't mean to pick at an old scab, but in the closing days of the '08 campaign, we saw the same  kind of behavior from John McCain. He knew he was losing and in a desperate bid to gain traction, his message became erratic (suspending the campaign) and small (Joe the Plumber).

Probably with good reason, Barack Obama is also not acting like a winner.  So bad is his behavior, in fact, that he's given Romney a massive opening to declare Obama's behavior "unpresidential." Wasn't it just a few weeks ago that Romney was beaten senseless for his  lack of substance? The secret's out: Obama has no second-term agenda.

But the real problem is that Obama's run out of nonsense to hurl. That's why he's left with "Romnesia" and binders. Certainly, the corrupt media's been happy to go along with any nonsense Obama offers them, but guys like Halperin aren’t stupid. They know this silliness only serves to diminish the president and won't move a single vote. Moreover, they know it likely means that the campaign is panicking over internal polling that shows it all going the wrong way.

I'm not predicting a Romney victory, but with the polls as erratic as they are, one way to gauge where things are is by looking at the behavior of the candidates.

Winners look like winners.

Losers look like losers.

Michelle Obama's Desperate Plea For Votes
 breitbart.com ^ | 10/20/12

Posted on Saturday, October 20, 2012 3:38:13 PM by Justaham

Just 18 days from election day, the Obama campaign is beginning the final push for votes in the most critical "fire wall" swing states on their electoral map. To that end, First Lady Michelle Obama gave a rousing and impassioned speech in Racine, WI last night to a fervent and committed crowd of core supporters.

The speech, and the First Lady's delivery, was at times shrill and desperate as false straw man after false straw man was hoisted up before the devoted crowd only to be struck down by Mrs. Obama with passionate force. "Don't let anybody talk down your country!" she implored the crowd, not specifically citing any example of how her husband's opponents have done such a thing.

Instead of just focusing on the positive and personal traits of her husband, Mrs. Obama spent most of the 34 minute sermon on policy issues.

Count the hysterical straw men Mrs. Obama dwells on when she wades into policy: From taxation "teachers and firefighters should not pay higher tax rates than millionaires and billionaires, not in America," to deficit spending "we know good and well that cutting Sesame Street is no way to balance the budget," to health care, "we believe in an America where no one goes broke because someone gets sick," to pabulum that is not related to any specific policy but sounds a lot like socialism "we believe in an America where no one loses their home just because someone lost a job."

full title......."Obama bogged down in race to White House due to 'impatient' voters who can't see light yet" says Clinton

Washington, Oct. 20 (ANI): Former US President Bill Clinton has said that President Barack Obama is facing a tough re-election race because "impatient" Americans haven't fully recognized an economy on the mend.

Campaigning for Obama in Green Bay, Wisconsin, Clinton urged voters to judge Obama on the past three years since he took office, in which private sector job growth has made up for lost ground.

"This shouldn't be a race. The only reason it is, is because Americans are impatient on things not made before yesterday and they don't understand why the economy is not totally hunky-dory again," the Huffington Post quoted Clinton, as saying.

PRESIDENT OBAMA ANNOUNCES A CLEARANCE SALE (EVERYTHING MUST GO !!)
 Breitbart ^ | 10/21/2012 | LEE STRANAHAN

Posted on Sunday, October 21, 2012 1:14:52 PM by SeekAndFind


The President of the United States is apparently having a fire sale. The Obama / Biden campaign sent out an email on Saturday with a headline that any internet marketer would love, complete with stars and ALL CAPS. The email subject line is “? Our biggest sale EVER ?” and it promises big big savings of 30% off of everything (minimum order, $10) PLUS guaranteed delivery by election day at the “Last Call Sale.”

But don’t order yet! The commander-in-chief will ALSO give you free shipping! That’s right, America; at these prices, you can’t afford to NOT support reckless, failed policies!

Just what manner of swag can one purchase to help support the current leader of the free world? Aside from the standard items like yard signs, buttons and bumper stickers that you’d expect from any campaign, the Obama Store contains a few products that stand out.

Every infant needs a My Two Dads Support Obama Baby Onsie because at that age, they are too young to ask to obvious biological question and thankfully, it’s a steal at half-off; only $10! Don’t worry, there’s one for Two Moms--and if you’re heterosexist, there’s of Onsies that show men & woman holding hands; only $65!

Kerry Warns: 'President Romney?!'
 The Washington Examiner ^ | 10/21/12 | Paul Bedard


Posted on Sunday, October 21, 2012 6:41:03 PM by

Sen. John Kerry is pulling out the biggest of warnings: In a fundraising email headlined "President Romney?!" he is raising for the first time the possibility that Mitt Romney could win the presidency.



Referring to his own paper-thin 2004 loss to former President George W. Bush, Kerry is trying to scare Democrats into giving the Obama campaign one last donation so that President Obama isn't outspent by Romney, though September financial records show that Obama outspent Romney two to one.

Kerry's email:


Folks, it's time to get serious about this.

In these last two weeks, President Obama and Democrats are going to get slammed with a massive blitz of negative ads. Mitt Romney and outside groups are "hoping that burying President Obama in ads will give them a crucial edge on Election Day," reports the Washington Post.

You and I learned the hard way eight years ago: We need to respond immediately and forcefully.

We've got the right candidates, the right ideas, and millions of committed supporters -- but we simply can't win without the resources.

So please donate $5 or more today.

We cannot let Mitt Romney become president.

While Romney was governor of my state, Massachusetts, the debt burden per capita was the highest in the nation. He raised or created more than 1,000 taxes and fees on people across Massachusetts, while 278 wealthy residents in the state got a tax break. And Massachusetts plummeted to 47th out of 50 in job creation.

What does it say that the people who know Mitt Romney best trust him least? He is trailing by 20 points or more in the state where he was governor.

If that's not what you want for the next four years, then chip in $5 or more and help President Obama and Democrats across the country beat Romney and his Republican allies:

https://my.democrats.org/Finish-Line

Thanks,

John Kerry

P.S. -- The stakes could not be higher. Tomorrow is the final debate, and then we're just two weeks away. No regrets. Donate today.

We’re two weeks away and signs point to the Obama campaign flailing about like a chicken with its head cut off — or more precisely Florida, North Carolina, and, of all things, Virginia cut off. Colorado too seems to be slipping out of Obama’s reach making Ohio more and more necessary. Paul Ryan has begun making incursions into Western Pennsylvania, which gets Ohio media markets, but also helps Republicans in Pennsylvania — something Obama cannot do for Democrats.

Within a week, the Obama campaign will probably trot out some blonde somebody with Gloria Alred to claim Mitt Romney and his five sons have all been sharing her. It will be their October Surprise. No doubt Eric Holder will be enlisted to drum up a few indictments too. They’ll pin their hopes on last minute fiction.

The Obama campaign is desperate and scared. Desperate and scared campaigns, like animals. tend to lash out. We’re seeing signs of that now with the “binders full of women” nonsense among other things. The Obama campaign has made a near fatal — quite possibly fatal — mistake. The campaign has been run on what Barack Obama has done for people without barely a hint of what he will do in his second term. People want to vote for something. Obama has given them nothing to vote for — just reminders of a past that includes a whole lot of unemployment and a still deeply unpopular take over of the American healthcare system. At least there’s Big Bird and Sandra Fluke.

What’s more, Mitt Romney and the GOP both are benefiting tremendously from Team Obama’s pride. The Obama campaign cannot, out of pride, admit it is losing key states. Consequently, the campaign continues to pour money into states like Florida that have fully slipped away. The Obama campaign is also hoarding Democratic Party funds that could be spent on other races. An unwillingness to let go of states and money and an inability to help other Democratic campaigns is not just costing Barack Obama, but is costing the Democratic Party as a whole.

The United States House of Representatives will not fall to Nancy Pelosi as a result. The United States Senate remains in play as a result. Republicans just need to rally to guys like Todd Akin, whether they want to or not. The Obama campaign’s pride will be the Democratic Party’s fall.

Obama's contempt for voters
By: Keith Koffler
October 22, 2012 04:31 AM EDT

Are you an idiot?

President Obama seems to think that’s exactly what you are.

It must be the reason he is conducting a campaign marked by a certain contempt for voters. He probably thinks you’re not smart enough to notice the sneer.

But with Mitt Romney rising in the polls, Obama and his political advisers may be discovering that Americans are not idiots.

Obama shows his contempt when he fails to be specific about what he will do if he is reelected president. And he shows his contempt when he draws a caricature of a despicable Romney that’s as believable as Freddy Krueger.

And as he insults the American people, Obama is also insulting himself. The president is a man who has thought hard about the liberal philosophy that guides him. He once hoped to sway Americans with his ideas. Instead, he’s trying to obscure his program and vilify his opponent.

Though sometimes derided as being built on an empty promise of “hope and change,” Obama’s 2008 campaign offered tangible goals, including an overhaul of the health care system and an end to the war in Iraq.

But in the first two presidential debates, Obama has offered up mainly general promises to increase spending in a few areas, and almost nothing about how to solve the great problem of our time – long term deficits driven by entitlement spending that will have to be dramatically slashed.

Obama’s solution, served up in the first debate, amounts to, “Don’t worry, be happy.” At a moment when a leader is needed to propose the hard choices necessary and create a mandate to address an existential dilemma, Obama hopes you’ll fall for the idea that The Hindenburg is the perfect flying machine.

“So the way for us to deal with Medicare in particular is to lower health care costs,” he said. “But when it comes to Social Security, as I said, you don’t need a major structural change in order to make sure that Social Security is there for the future.”

This is nonsense that ignores the pain that’s on the way.

Obama’s plan for the near-term deficit, other than – somewhat counter-intuitively – increasing spending, is to smack the rich around with a tax increase.

Raising the taxes of families making more than $250,000 a year will not go very far toward eliminating the deficit.

Instead, the proposal is a symptom of Obama’s ideology, which wants to punish success and redistribute it.

But it is also an appeal to the basest emotions of voters, an effort to breed resentment against the wealthy and translate it into support for Obama, who fashions himself the champion of the middle class.

It’s an appeal to anger, built on the hope that you won’t be able to discern populist demagoguery and left-wing dogma from a serious attempt to tackle the deficit.

Driving parallel to Obama’s empty agenda but traveling on an even lower road is his extraordinarily personal attempt to brand Romney a liar and a shameless tool of the wealthy.

Obama was again testing your intelligence during the second debate, when he tried to peddle some snake oil about Romney aching to devote his presidency to making the rich richer.

“Governor Romney doesn’t have a five-point plan. He has a one-point plan,” Obama said. “And that plan is to make sure that folks at the top play by a different set of rules. That’s been his philosophy in the private sector, that’s been his philosophy as governor, that’s been his philosophy as a presidential candidate.”

It’s almost sad to see a thinker of Obama’s caliber lofting such simplistic left-wing rhetoric out of the mud, bellowing, in effect, “He only cares about rich people!”

It would be sad except Obama knows better, and he hopes you won’t.

And in what appears to have been part Machiavellian political strategy and part foot-stomping fit of pique by a sore loser, Obama reportedly chaired a meeting in which he and his operatives decided to make Romney’s “dishonesty” the central issue of their campaign. The charge, in essence, was that Romney cheated during the debate by lying about his record and his plans.

This was a new addition to the portfolio of insults the Obama campaign had already been spitting out at Romney, which had mainly focused on his supposedly unscrupulous business practices.

These are the desperate ravings of a campaign that has nothing more politically effective to talk about. Obama’s signature policies, the stimulus and Obamacare, are unpopular. The campaign’s slogan is “forward,” but it doesn’t want to give you too much detail about where “forward” leads.

The Obama campaign has a sense of unreality about it, both in its agenda and its argument with its opponent.

At its core, the Obama campaign is a cartoon. And it hopes you are dumb enough that you like cartoons.

I've heard this from a lot of people.   It's also been the impression I've gotten from his debates.

33, is it true?  Obama DID in fact cut taxes on middle class.  You know this - we paid less in taxes.  You can argue he fuckked the duck on 10,000 other things and I won't argue.

But on this specific point - WILL romney end the tax cuts that Obama gave the middle class/?

Of course, blue states pay more in taxes. Their governors keep jacking them up. Look at California and New York. People are leaving those states in droves.

What's rather pathetic is trying to make the case that Obama should be re-elected, simply for being a Democrat. Even if all that stuff you printed were accurate, it's HARDLY THE CASE with THIS PARTICULAR DEMOCRAT, Barack Obama.

Personal income is DOWN over $4,000.

Economy is LOUSY, under OBAMA.

As for red states receiving more in welfare, break those states down and see where the concentrations of welfare recipients are (and how those folks vote).

Personal income under Obama is down over $4000. (Notice your chart only goes to 2005! Gee...I wonder why  ::) )

Economy is lousy (two credit downgrades 44 straight months of at least 8% unemployment; GDP in the toilet), under Obama

He didn't get it done. He needs to go. Trying to associate him with past Democrats, when his record hardly reflects such, smacks of desperation to save a president in BIG TROUBLE.

Top Liberal Calls for Eva Longoria's Resignation from Obama Campaign
 Breitbart ^ | 18 Oct 2012, | John Nolte

Posted on 10/18/2012 1:57:37 PM PDT by


After re-tweeting a tweet that declared as "stupid" any and all minorities and women who support a "racist/misogynist twat" named Mitt Romney, and then attempting to cover it up Anthony Weiner-style with a bizarre tweet blaming Twitter for "things in my timeline" -- actress and Obama campaign co-chair Eva Longoria is now learning something about accountability.

This morning, Longoria was forced to tweet out an apology. Now her resignation from the Obama campaign has been called for.

For high-profile Obama supporter, Alan Colmes, it looks as though Longoria's apology was too little and way too late. Today on Fox News, the Democrat called for Ms. Longoria to resign from her high-profile perch on the Obama campaign.

Axelrod Sounding Sad: 'No Matter What, We've Given This Campaign Everything We've Got'

Four years ago, David Axelrod was exuberantly riding the Obama wave. Today, the poor guy sounds decidedly down in the dumps. Check out this line from an email he sent to people on the Obama campaign list: "I don't know how this is going to end. But no matter what, I know each of us will have given this campaign everything we've got."

Yikes! Take two Prozac and call me in the morning if you're still trailing by five in the Gallup poll!
