Subscribe to RSSDemocrats say they have reserved $46.1 million in TV ad time in 60 districts in their "Drive for 25."
For Democrats to wrest control of the House of Representatives back from Republicans, there would need to be yet another wave election -- 25 seats to flip. The Cook Political Report's David Wasserman predicts so far Democrats pick up fewer than that, from five to 15 seats at this point.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee narrowly outraised its counterpart in May, bringing in $6.7 million to the National Republican Congressional Committee's $6 million. The DCCC has outraised the NRCC this cycle $96.8 million to $86.6 million. But the NRCC has more cash on hand -- $33.5 million to $27.5 million.
The TV ad buys are in 37 districts currently held by Republicans, 11 held by Democrats, and 12 where there are open races.
The NRCC responds with two points:
(1) that it raised more than $4.5 million just this morning at a conference to launch its Battleground Program; and (2) Its Chairman Pete Sessions (R-TX), said at the meeting: “If we want to strengthen the majority, we’ve got to earn it.” The message was: the committee is in a strong financial position, but that it's not a time to rest on laurels, and that the stakes are too high for anyone to take it for granted.

I know one district where they can save some cash!
That is the 8th District in IL - Deadbeat Daddy & bat @!$%# crazy tea-bagger - Joe Walsh is going to go down in flames against decorated veteran Tammy Duckworth!
He only won the seat in 2010 by 296 votes & now that it has been redistricted (to include me I might add) he can kiss his seat GOOD-BYE!
Yea, this one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minnesota%27s_6th_congressional_district
I know a State where the Dems can save some cash! Florida baby, belongs to Romney. Florida is tired of same old same old from President Obama.
I know I have asked this question before, but I will ask again. What doe it mean when FR tags you as deleted and where can I read the rules. See, I'm a dumb independent according to the Libs. Where is Gingerbread Mamma?
OOOOH NOOOOOO -
More TEEVEE.
What a friggin' waste.
SO how much of this ad time will be spent touting O's accomplishments?
O care, Stimulus, Tax cuts?
'So anyone think Dominico is aware of what Holder's up to today?
Matbe it's the very next story?
Sure it is.
Now Spanky... there you go again, expecting FR to report ACTUAL news!
It's obvious that the average American will ever spend $20,000 or more to sit at a fund raising dinner for their favorite candidate. I know I probably wouldn't spend that amount.
But everyone can do as I continue to do. I send in a $50 donation every month to support the democrats. A lot of small donations continue to make up a large amount. If you are a democratic supporter and serious about wanting to oust the GOP/TP, I encourage you to donate what you can so the democrats can get their message out to everyone.
Don't you just love these poll numbers ....
Tuesday, June 19, 2012
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows Mitt Romney attracting 48% of the vote, while President Obama earns 44%. Four percent (4%) prefer some other candidate, and another five percent (5%) are undecided ....
But I thought the Republicans had all the money and were buying this election?
How could this be?
I know a State where the Dems can save some cash! Florida baby, belongs to Romney. Florida is tired of same old same old from President Obama.
CC - Wanna bet?
nomoresameo - $50?
Come on bro - you really need to step up.
Obama really needs you to step up.
Oh and when you say oust the GOP and Tea Party - you do know that you libbies control the White House and the Senate, right?
It's ok - your message is out there. O is on TEEVEE himself every week.
Your message is out there. Too bad no one's buying it anymore.
But maybe France will light the way. You know. lower retirement, 75% tax brackets.
Yep, that's the ticket.
Say, I wonder if Feisty could tell us how well raising taxes is working out in Illinois?
Obama can't fool the masses anymore ....
He's done ....
Your message is out there. Too bad no one's buying it anymore.
Too funny Spanky! if no one were buying it, how did the dems outraise the GOP as stated in the article?
From our less than erudite "Concern:"
"Where is Gingerbread Mamma?"
What POSSIBLE business would THAT be of YOURS?
Really nomoresameo?
So point me to where in the article the $ came from.
But see, you know where - fat cat donors and unions, but of course.
You know all them confiscatory dues and $45k per plate dinners.
Besides O has only done 5 BILLION fundraisers in just the last week alone.
But done let that get you down, they also really, really need your $50. :)
So nomoresameo - is your argument that the best message gets the most cash? Cause that's not so good for your side.
That broad has some serious stalker issues!
Poor thing is a couple of fries short of a Happy Meal!
On another note - I see where the green haired troll has made her return below! lmao!
God, no kidding, Feisty. That is a step beyond creepy.
Hey Concern, Gingerbread mama got either suspended or banned for plagarizing some stuff on and NBC thread.
Not once, but twice.
Guess her friends forgot to tell her when you wander off of Feisty's porch (FR) you need to be careful.
Seems they actually enforce the rules elsewhere at Newsvine.
Which explains why you don't have the balls to leave your comfort zone here... lol
I've met some pussies in my day, but YOU WCA take the prize!
Also explains why he doesn't actually get a hobby and go outside on weekends.
You know Feisty, we have already been through this once.
Just exactly how would you know where or when I post on other sites?
I asked you to explain your comment before, but you just ran away, as usual. gonna run away again?
So point me to where in the article the $ came from. But see, you know where - fat cat donors and unions, but of course.
LMFAO! But I'll humor you. Let's say that's where the money came from and no where else. Now humor me and explain where the money in the GOP war chest came from!!
There it is again - Feisty all concerned about WCA's sack.
WCA - it appears that Feisty is stalking you balls.
That's just nasty, even for the old gal.
Oh and nomoresameo - I'm a tad over 25, so do not speak text.
The GOP gets it's cash from fat stack donors, not $50 at a time small ball players.
Feel humored? Good. now how about up write a check to O for $5k? Shoot, he could use $50k, or $500K a lot more.
You good for it?
Not everyone puts in nights and weekends on this board like you do BCA.
Which surprised me as well. Not much to be concerned about there.
As if WCA knows anything. That suspension was for one day. It is neither YOUR business nor that of Concerns as to where posters are if they do not make an appearance on FR. They owe you NOTHING.
All of this goes to show that the research is correct. RWNJ's have a bigger area in their brain that controls fear and anxiety. Explains two things. Why they aren't terribly bright, and why we see the paranoid posts that we see.
Get a life.
Feisty Redhead Roselle, IL
That broad has some serious stalker issues!
Poor thing is a couple of fries short of a Happy Meal!
On another note - I see where the green haired troll has made her return below! lmao!
How many teachers, fire fighters, and police officers could be paid for $46 million dollars????? And this represents one single push in a campaign that is destined to go on for how many more months before we actually go to the polls to vote? We read about the President attending essentially 6 fundraising events in about a 48 hour period....where is the regard for the American people in all this? These events are not being attended by the rank and file, the out of work union workers whose jobs left this country....by definition, the politicians of all creeds are schmoozing the 1% that most of the posters seem to revile so much, but yet, you do not condemn your candidate for fraternizing with the enemy, nor do you wonder what sort of behind closed doors deal is being bandied about to secure this financial support for your favorite contender. What is being spent on campaigning, completely aside from the wasted time reporting it, filming it, analyzing it.....is criminal.

Oh, Spanky...since you know SOOOOOOO much about this meeting (and because you obviously ignored the last time I posted this), you would know that the meeting between Holder and Issa wasn't scheduled to begin until this afternoon...so there's most likely nothing to report yet.
We now return you to our regularly scheduled mayhem.
Geez NDD lighten up.
Your taking this posting thingie way to seriously.
Hey Feisty, please stop worrying about my private parts. Rest assured sweetie, everything works just fine.
Uh oh, his grammar is starting to suffer. Maybe you should take a break, you can always post again this evening. You also have all weekend free.
I've already told her there isn't much to worry about there.
Your cousin approved?
Really WCA: I am tired of the paranoia from the rwnj's like you and concern. It destroys threads, it destroys coherent conversations, and it destroys any sense of community.
But we can always expect those who are the worst about it, like you and concern are, to just claim the other guy needs to lighten up.
No I don't. It isn't funny and I am getting sick of it.
there you go again Ruken, trying so hard to show everyone how smart you are by pointing out typo's.
Tell you what, since you posted about Ireland around 50 times today, how about you spend a little time telling us exactly what is going on there.
Come on, I know you can do it.
Can't you?
Really NDD, when you and Feisty attack every dessenting opinion here?
If all you want is happy agreeable discussions with your point of view, your "sense of community" stick to the DDi or the Libs R Us Clubhouse.
If you're sick of it, here's an idea.
Don't log on.
OOOPS!
WCA has now pivoted to deflection mode... give him 20 minutes or so & he'll descend into the full blown victim! lol
He's playing all tough at the moment cause he has SpankMe's skirt to hide behind!
Poor thing doesn't do so well when he has to travel solo! lol
Oh dear!
Why so much anger little buddy?
More paranoia from WCA.
I would expect that from someone as brainwashed as you.
There are thoughtful conservatives here that engage in issues that are interesting to talk to.
The other thing we can expect from rwnj's like you is control issues.
I will decide where and on what topic I post. Get over the idea that you have ANY relevance here at all.
Feisty is right by the way, WCA: you have two schticks, both of which are boring as hell. Deflection and victim.
Take responsibility for what you do.
I can't wait for him to go
Indeed, he deflects because our discussion on his tiny balls made him uneasy.
Well let's see, no career, no hobbies, small testicles, low income...
By the way, President Obama should win Michigan, Ohio, Virginia and Wisconsin.
They are just the right size for earrings...
Speaking of genitalia, has anyone seen probe-boy lately? Maybe he's getting hair transplant surgery...
And we did forget the last part of WCA's schtick. When he gets his butt metaphorically well and truly kicked....
he disappears.
So predictable.
Shhhh. You're saying it like it's a bad thing.
Wow NDD for someone of no relevance here, you certainly seem to be in awe of me.
Can't get enough of me now can you sister?
Het NDD, I may have 2 shticks but you only seem to have one.
THat is being Feisty's little lap dog and purring at her feet and begging for approval.
Kind of sad really. You should really find a new site and try to go out on your own. It would be good for you.
I definitely see you saying that IRL.
Says WCA: who is so dependent on Spanky that it is LAUGHABLE!
Sorry, Ruken. I stand corrected! ; )
Ruken still waiting on your report about Ireland.
Or is it simply that you have no clue?
I actually had a post typed up, but then I saw I would have just pandered to your deflection.
Therefore I decided pandering to a career-less, hobby-less, low income and incestuous lunatic would just be a waste of my time.
Ruken, did I ever tell you that you are rapidly becoming one of my favorite people who post here?
But NDD I thought you hated the mean spirited icoherent rants here that worked against conversation?
Or is that just if it is from someone you don't agree with?
You are like most here, nothing but a hypocrite.
Me too - except for when he linked the Benny Hill theme song yesterday & I could't get it out of my head! lol
Although, I did laugh so hard tears rolled!
Still shooting blanks... eh... little buddy?
Come on - show us your victim mode, I could use a really good laugh!
I actually had a post typed up,
Sure you did Job1, Sure you did.
He just did, Feisty; read post 1.50. He has clearly lost the battle, and trying to find his way out.
Believe it or not, I really don't care.
But of course I tend not to give two sh*ts about low-educated slum-dwelling keyboard warriors.
Lost a bttle with you and Ruken NDD?
Really, a battle?
You are a spineles broad who can't stand up for herself. Clearly in need of Fiesty's approval as per 1.53.
Can you do anything on your own NDD?
There it is again, an effort to save face by WCA.
Sorry, won't work. You just look silly as always.
There goes his grammar again, the little (literally) b*tch is getting mad.
You gonna cry?
JOB1
BTW Obama should not win any states.
has any of you contributors to this article read the AMATUER yet? this is all about obama, just like this article is.............amatuer politician. the last 4 years have proved it. get him and michelle, the kids and the dog (if he still has it) out of the white house in November. he has put our country at enough risk, it will take Romney awhile to straighten out the mess obama caused. what a let-down he was...............! vote NO ON OBAMA in NOVEMBER.
This is only wrong when the Republicans outspend the Democrats.
Amen sister!
What hypocrites they are!
Obama's big donors are bailing out on him ....
Obama supporters use to brag about how much money Obama would have in his campaign fund ....
Romney's getting all the big money donors now and the democrats don't like it .... "LOL"
Oh the irony.
Us girls have to stick together. Hypocrites and elites prejudice.
I count 3 women votes here.
Romney 2012. Correct the error of 2008.
Adios , Obamos .... "LOL"
This is only wrong when the Republicans outspend the Democrats.
Gem - The dems can only play by the same set of rules laid out by Citizens United......And if you think the Dems can't raise money, think again....
Obama/Biden 2012
Sorry ....
Obama has to go ....
We can't afford him anymore ....
Each day convinces me more and more that your are correct- Ben!
Constant repetition, No matter how ridiculous, is always the factor that convinces the stupid. Ben likes to use this old GOP method to gather his right wing masses.
Hey Srich ....
You change your Avitar often ....
Nice ....
I see them all ....
You're cute .... ; )
I'm a registered democrat ....
Like many democrats that know Obama's the worst thing for America ....
And has been for more than 3 years now ....
Right ben,
Like voting for a republican to bankrupt our country for more tax cuts for the rich is the smart thing to do.
I know you want to keep running President Obama down, but wasn't it bush and the republicans that left our country bleeding millions of jobs and the biggest deficit in our history and a market crash due to deregulations?
What our country can not afford is returning to the very same policies that we are still trying to recover from. Not exactly the same, the republicans are planning on bigger tax cuts and bigger deficits and even more war. If you liked how bush and the republicans left our country you are going to love the destruction that Romney has planned to pay for more tax cuts for himself.
Romney ideals are so bad he won't even tell the people what they are. Romney said he learned before that if you honestly tell the people what you plan to do then they won't vote for you if they don't like the plans. So Romney will just lie and pander instead. When you are running to be the Norquist puppet, you don't really need to know what you are doing just like bush jr.
Didn't we all love what bush jr. the last Norquist puppet did to our country?
If Ben is a democrat then I am a pink dinosaur with green spots.
Such a democrat he is going to vote to bring a recession on purpose to America so the rich can have more tax cuts.
Such a democrat he is going to vote to starve our poor so the rich can have more tax cuts.
Such a democrat he is going to vote to take care away from our veterans so the rich can have more tax cuts.
Such a democrat he is going to vote to take medicare away from grandma and grandpa so the rich can have more tax cuts.
Such a democrat he is going to vote to end social security as we know it so the rich can have more tax cuts.
Such a democrat he is going to vote to end education so the rich can have more tax cuts.
Such a democrat he is going to vote to starve our children so the rich can have more tax cuts.
Such a democrat he is going to vote to raise taxes on the poor so the rich can have more tax cuts.
Such a democrat he is going to vote to increase the deficit so the rich can have more tax cuts.
Yes, we are all so stupid we believe that ben is really a democrat that loves America.
Hi Ben thanks, yes, I believe I have avatar ADD ; )
"Constant repetition, No matter how ridiculous, is always the factor that convinces the stupid" yes, I see this left wing method used on CNN every morning.
Let's be honest, there are stupid and intelligent people on both sides. Assuming that a person is one or the other based on Left and Right is narrow minded crap! Get over your silly self.
Just to throw this little kernel of an idea out there for folks to mull over......Romney may not be issuing alot of specifics, but that could be because he is to be nominated to represent the entire of the Republican party for the office of President...and as such, his views and policies should be, as reflective as possible, of the entire Republican party. It really isn't the views of Romney that matter as much as his willingness to work at the goals and programs that the convention deems important to all of the Republicans, or at least the greatest majority. This is something that has been missing in politics for a long while-real representation by our elected officials of what the voting populace expresses as their wants and needs, rather than somebody getting to office and deciding that they are more intelligent, more important, and more able to find solutions than the people who elected them.
American's First....
I would like to point out that our President's wife is out beating the drum for healthy eating and an end to the epidemic of obesity in the United States....Please tell me how this message meshes with your assertion that conservative fiscal policies are going to result in Americans starving????? We cannot be obese and starve simaltaneously, which means that one side or the other is creating an argument based upon lies. Which is it?????
Sue, that is exactly what libs attack him for doing in MA, he was the Gov of the most liberal state, was he suppose to try to turn it into texas? He passed policy the people wanted, and because it was policy libs wanted, of course it wasnt great.
ben why do you repeat what you hear in the conservative media? If you a democrat you should know whats driving the national dept. and who the real deficit and spend party is.
offthechartsblog.org/what%E2%80%99s-driving-projected-debt/
As for "big donors" again you should know that most of President Obama fund raising is from donors less than $500.
just say it ben your a conservative repuk, the party of george bush. come out of the closet already, and embrace the party of failure.
Chris..... this is for you. Don't be silly. Not even mentioning Maher and Clooney.

Hey Bigben,
Srich is actually a guy look at the picture.
Obama supporters = : (
Romney supporters = : )
"LOL"
Republicans are backward with a furrowed brow?
that explains it, I guess.
;)
More deaths in Chicago. Let's send thier community organizer back home..... VOTE FOR CHANGE IN 2012!
I wouldn't be suprised to see Illinois go Red, the Governer here is running the state into poverty, raising taxes by 60% and still can't fund the public pension plans.
Chicago is killing more people than the war in Afghanistan.
Illinois is a red state with the city of Chicago screwing everything up.
Once upon a time in Illinois, the state was pretty equally divided between the Red and the Blue and that served to keep everything in a sort of balance, perhaps not the ideal situation, but a balance nonetheless and the state of Illinois was able to go about business and generally take care of its obligations to the residents of the state......Since the state, and the County of Cook and the city of Chicago are all being controlled by policiticans who keep their positions until death because they pay off this group or that group with favors, contracts, promised pensions and benefits that nobody can realistically afford to pay out, the balance is gone, and the choices are simple....pony up and pay for what some idiot politician promised to somebody other than yourself or get out of Dodge....Unfortunately, or fortunately, whichever side of the fence you might be on....the housing bubble bursting has served to prevent alot of people from evacuating the disaster area that has become Illinois in greater numbers than already seen. What is absolutely amazing, is that with businesses being actively courted by other states to move their companies and the jobs and the tax revenue out of Illinois, and no businesses willing to come in and "pay the protection monies" due to the reigning liberal politicians, nor to pay inflated taxes and fees to do business in a state that has basically managed to dig out its own grave in rather short order (approximately 5 years from the top of the heap to the bottom) that politicians are not courting them with the same promises (empty though they may be) that they created the original mess with.
Sue - well put, moved up here from St Louis and was amazed at how much the whole state is red, however the state is controlled by Chicago, as you stated above.
I understand Illinois is about to be downgraded (again) credit wise...
So, how much of this TV ad money is just throwing cash away? Have they ever heard of TIVO or DVR?
I also find you libs funny how you cheer for dems spending huge campaign funds but condemn repubs for it, the hypocrisy is tough to stomach.
Right one or two billionaires spending millions of foreign money to buy control of our government is just fine with trudat.
Millions spending a few dollars each is the real democracy and is what real Americans cheer for.
If you are so dumb you can't tell the difference like trudat you will be voting republican.
Keep up the OWS avatar, your words really mean something to somebody, sure they are a selfish pothead too, but they care what you have to say.
BTW, dems take money from everyone, including everyone their rhetoric attacks, they are lying to your face you dolt.
Mr Obama's fund raisers are not the venue of real Americans each ante up a few dollars.....Each one of those fund raisers counted the offerings in hundreds of thousands of dollars or more. When are you going to wake up and understand, that just as in the work a day world, there are Red 1% and Blue 1%, but no matter how you cut it, by definition, they are the 1%. A Blue 1% will profit by exactly the same margin from tax cuts or incentives or subsidies as his Red counterpart....These wealthy choose up sides to enhance their agendas....Obviously, if your business agenda targets Green technology, you will ally with the side that is promoting that, because it benefits you. The benefit to society is only a secondary consideration. People don't manufacture solar panels to benefit the planet, but because they feel that they are on the cutting edge, and someday, they will hold all the power when fossil fuel resources run dry....Nobody goes into business for purely altruistic reasons, but because they have reason to believe that they will be profitable, and enjoy what profit can bring......Tell me, do you go to work for altruistic reasons, because your job somehow benefits the planet, society at large, your fellow human being....or do you go to work because of the reality of needing money to, not only survive, but to indulge the things that you enjoy? While your occupation may well serve the community or humanity, being able to earn a living definitely factored into your choice of job. As every employee is willing to go to the highest bidder for their work, so to do the politicians seem to go.
Sue, youre assuming AF has ever had a job, i think you may be terribly wrong.
Not only do I have a job, but I have a car and I own my own home.
But anyone who doesn't believe the same lies as you must be lazy and a non-worker.
As you vote for Romney who thinks the Ryan budget is marvelous, don't forget that the policies of the Ryan budget are the very same policies causing double-dipped recessions in Europe. But somehow liberals are dumb because we don't want another recession that the republicans voted on purpose to bring to America.
You know like how the republicans voted on purpose to create our deficit and now want to blame everyone but themselves.
To: Feisty Redhead Roselle, IL who so gracefully wrote.
“What POSSIBLE business would THAT be of YOURS? That broad has some serious stalker issues! Poor thing is a couple of fries short of a Happy Meal! On another note - I see where the green haired troll has made her return below! lmao!”
Honey you need some serious time to enjoy life. Get a reality check. As we say in Spanish “ alguien que te haga un favor” some one to do you a favor. Please nest time when you say lmao make it lmbfao. If this is what the Liberal have to offer, I don’t want it. What low class you are girlfriend.
Ginger, you are definitely hanging around with the wrong crowd. I was only asking about you to let you know that FR should not be your life and so what if you got deleted. Free speech and a Free Country. Hope my words make you feel better.
Thank you Dennis Columbus Ohio for the information.
So now liberals are low class.
But republican who voted with the Ryan budget to bring another recession on purpose to America are high class and good.
The republicans who voted to take food out of the mouths of our children for more tax cuts for the rich must be high class.
The republicans who voted with the Ryan/Romney budget to take care away from our wounded veterans also must be high class.
The republicans who voted with the Ryan/Romney budget to privatize medicare so their rich friends can make money off the poor sounds like more republican high class thinking.
Don't forget the republicans who voted to privatize education so Romney's son can make money while providing less education sounds about as high class as the republicans get.
You would have to be smart to see through the republicans scams and lie. One claiming how high class the republicans are have bought the lies hook, line and sinker. Then you wonder why the rest of us know you aren't very bright.
That's as far as i had to read, in your most likely propaganda filled rant of uselessness and ignorance, to answer you...YES, but it isnt a new thing as you implied.
Liberals as a group are certainly not low class; however, liberal individuals who resort to cursing, name calling, and verbal temper tantrums to make a point, most certainly are.....One would hope that we had all moved beyond the Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah, Boo Boo phase of debates, but clearly for some individuals that isn't the case.
To Americans First-3238795 and all the others that want to make it about Liberals.
Folks get a life and read it again "Feisty is a low class" but if the glove fits than you can wear it.
gracias mi amiga CC:) es verdad que yo soy la 'green haired troll'? lol
Thanks to the SCOTUS and their Citizens United decision, the Republicans feel they can spend like drunken sailors on leave after 6 months at sea. The Democrats are merely fighting fire with fire and the money mentioned here should be a good first step.
Have you ever felt like you just may be completely brainwashed?
Hmmmm...a lot of feisty, bored, curmudgeon people on this post who believe in the fairy dust mitt is throwing their way. Like you 'big ben', who claim to be a 'registered democrat'. Speak for yourself, but not for all the other Democrats. If you're bitter, it's proably because you live in alaska. How's that working for ya?
Obama baby in 2012!!! Thx GT 212701!
Well this is from a person who reads the article and gives an opinion and everything else that's being said back and forth between the libs and the repubs are just talk and that's it!!! I consider to be a pragmatic thinking democrat and the article is about how democrats don't want to be swftboated out of chance to retake the hous because of an inability to raise money. Someone said ( Ithink it was Sue) that how many jobs and how many other things can be done with 46 million dollars to help America, but Sue my friend on the right Mr. ROmney bragged last month that he had outraised President Obama 53 million to 46 million and Mr Sheldon Adelson himself has baiscally said he's going to spend up to 100 million dollars to beat the President so this is a two way street and how many more jobs can Mr. Adelson create with that 100 million dollar GOP stimulus he sending??!!! Just a question I had to as??!!!
Sorry about the typo's but hopefully you will get the point I'm trying to make about it being a two-way street when it comes to money in politics. And let me also say that I don't like that the democrats have to do the same thing but everybody wants to keep there jobs and having money to spend to keep your job is a major priority in today's political world.
Right now it doesn't matter how much Obama raises, he's behind or only tied in nearly every poll out there, which doesn't say much for the incumbent winning.
And in the meantime everyone gets to read the usual FILTH from Feisty and all the other left wing haters out there. It would be just wonderful if any single ONE of them could debate anything intelligently. But they don't. They spew hate, racism, class warfare garbage, and EVERYTHING else that they are told to by their handlers.
While Obama attempts to cater to every class/race/culture/group of people that he ALREADY has the support of and who did NOT actually win him the election in 2008, he's turned his back on the people that actually DECIDE the election, the Independents that are deserting this FAILURE by the millions as they see that "hope and change" really just meant borrow, tax, regulate, and spend spend spend.
Americans First, let's not forget the republican agenda to de-fund Planned Parenthood and ban all abortions, regardless of the circumstance.
There was an article in my Saturday paper written by Jennifer A, Marshall of The Heritage Foundation titled "Girls Deserve Protection in Womb". We all know The Heritage Foundation is run by and funded by the extreme right. The article was a manipulation of facts to rile the anti-abortion folks (mostly men as far as I can tell) into action once again. She wants Congress to pass the Pre-natal Non-Discrimination Act to "bar sex-selective abortion in this country".
My daughter had a baby 5 months ago and she didn't find out the sex of her child until she was 20 weeks along. If I'm not mistaken, President Bush signed a partial birth abortion bill in 2003 so her assertion that women in this country choose to abort their daughters made no sense to me. Another ploy to ban abortion.
Abortion using tax payer funds should be banned. If you or your daughter wants to get an abortion, then get one, thats your choice. Using tax payer funds to pay for it is not your choice.
Abortions aren't paid for with "tax payer funds". Those funds would come out of my pocket.
I'm sure you should have been the poster child for abortion.
Giving money to Odumbo is just like flushing it down a toilet, as America is doing that to the POS come November.
