President Barack Obama shakes hands after holding a round table discussion with first time voters at OMG Burger in Miami on Sept. 20, 2012.
President Barack Obama leads Mitt Romney in Colorado, Iowa and Wisconsin, reaching the key 50 percent support threshold in all three battlegrounds, according to the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist polls of these states.
In both Colorado and Wisconsin, Obama is ahead by 5 points among likely voters (including those leaning toward a candidate), 50 percent to 45 percent.
And in Iowa, the president’s edge over Romney is 8 points, 50 percent to 42 percent.

Among a wider sample of registered voters, Obama’s lead is even larger – 6 points in Colorado, 8 in Wisconsin and 11 in Iowa.
While Obama still hasn't closed the deal, says Marist College pollster Lee Miringoff, “The advantage is his in all three states.”
He adds, “It is very important in an election when you start closing in on 50 [percent]. In politics that is a big number.”
The results from these new polls are similar to the NBC/WSJ/Marist surveys of Florida, Ohio and Virginia that were released last week. Those showed Obama ahead in all three battlegrounds. And they’re consistent with this week’s national NBC/WSJ poll (conducted by different pollsters) that found Obama up by 5 points among likely voters, 50 percent to 45 percent.
Romney’s favorability vs. Obama’s
These new surveys – conducted after the political firestorm over last week’s attacks on U.S. embassies in Libya and Egypt, and during the melee over a leaked video of Romney talking about the “47 percent” of Americans who are dependent on government and believe they are victims – also show the Republican’s favorability rating in an unenviable place.

In the final push in the 2012 presidential election, candidates Mitt Romney and Barack Obama make their last appeals to voters.
A plurality of likely voters view Romney in a negative light in all three states. In Colorado, it’s 43 percent favorable to 50 percent unfavorable; in Iowa, it’s 42 percent to 50 percent; and in Wisconsin, it’s 43 percent to 46 percent.
By contrast, out of last week’s polls in Florida, Ohio and Virginia, just one of them – Ohio – found Romney’s favorable/unfavorable rating under water.

Meanwhile, Obama’s favorable/unfavorable scores in Colorado (51 percent to 45 percent), Iowa (53 percent to 42 percent), and Wisconsin (51 percent to 44 percent) are all above water.
Romney casts himself as 'change' candidate in seizing on Obama comment
Yet the president’s job approval rating in these states is a bit lower – 47 percent in Colorado, 48 percent in Wisconsin, and 49 percent in Iowa.
Tied on the economy
According to these polls, Obama and Romney are essentially battling to a tie on the question of which candidate would do a better job in handling the economy. In Wisconsin, 46 percent of likely voters pick Romney, while 45 percent select Obama.
But in Colorado, the president gets 48 percent, and the GOP nominee gets 46 percent. And in Iowa, Obama is up by four points, 47 percent to 43 percent.
Read the Iowa poll results here (.pdf)
Yet when it comes to which candidate would do a better job on foreign policy, the president enjoys a double-digit advantage in all three states.
Other notable numbers
- In Republican running mate Paul Ryan’s home state of Wisconsin, his favorable/unfavorable score among likely voters is 49 percent to 40 percent (versus 51 percent to 44 percent for Obama, 43 percent to 46 percent for Romney, and 42 percent to 45 percent for Vice President Joe Biden).
- In Wisconsin’s competitive Senate contest, Democrat Tammy Baldwin gets support from 48 percent of likely voters, and Republican Tommy Thompson gets 46 percent.
- Obama is ahead among independents in all three states – by 1 point in Wisconsin, 10 points in Iowa and 11 points in Colorado.
- And there’s a significant gender gap in these three states, with the president up by double digits among women and with Romney slightly ahead among men.
The NBC/WSJ/Marist polls were conducted Sept. 16-18 of 971 likely voters in Colorado (which has a margin of error of plus-minus 3.1 percentage points), 898 likely voters in Iowa (plus-minus 3.3 percentage points) and 968 likely voters in Wisconsin (plus-minus 3.2 percentage points).
NBC's Domenico Montanaro and Chris Cillizza discuss on MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell Reports Mitt Romney's new moderate tone and new battleground polls showing an advantage for President Barack Obama.
About a quarter of all likely voters in these three states were interviewed by cell phone.

Some people will want to back a winner.
The more Myth Robme opens his mouth the further behind he gets. He should have stuck with his surrogates.
Oh snap!
The debate dagger is looming larger now.
Perhaps "The Daily Show" said it best, "Tampa, the road to Jeb Bush 2016."
If the Teapublicans don't completely burn down the party.
Even more proof...
Rombot.Has.Nothing.
Even the "new Mitt" unveiled last night on the Hispanic TV channel, Univision, is coming off as a rather clumsy attempt to try and humanize this man. Now, when he gets back in front of the "red meat" crowd in some rural area, he'll turn into the other Mitt, again.
Onward and upward to 55%, Mr. President. The only change Mitt will bring is a change of magic underwear after he gets the cr@p beat out of him November 6th.
Obama 2012/Romney 1040
ForePlinger - No Jeb Bush - I don't think anyone will vote for another Bush in the White House. And, remember, he'll be running against Hillary. NO Jeb!
Obama/Biden 2012 Hillary 2016
All states where Romney should be doing well. Guess the people living there have figured out what a two-faced phony he is. Romney = flaccid.
There is nothing Mitt Romney can do now. The polls are headed in the right direction and he can not stop them. What is so sad is this guy " Clown " is the best the Republican's can offer.
Obama/Biden win easy 2012 ~
No more neo-conservatives
No more Tea Baggers
No more Corporatists
Barack Obama / Joe Biden 2012
Hillary Clinton / Sherrod Brown 2016
Don't get complacent the super pac money is just starting to kick in and the BS will be flying. Tied together with that is the voter suppression efforts and of course as we've seen in the past, the GOP is not past stealing and cheating their way into office,
Of course, they've done it before. In fact it's barely plan B anymore.
So Mitt is going to lose the state in which he was governor and Ryan is unable to keep the state in which he has been congressman. If they can't take their own states, how can they possibly expect to win the rest of the country?
President Obama in November! He is clearly our only rational choice!
That's right about the money only beginning to flow. This whole gang has more money than brains. The Kock Brothers and Adelson have lost their perspective. They think they can spend a billion to save a half a million. They want their CEO in as President of their latest hostile takeover.
I think writing Gov. Romney off is a little premature. Remember there are the debates, and Gov. Romney could surprise quite a few people and turn things to his favor. I'm NOT advocating for either, but I'm just pointing out that it's way too early to be sticking a fork in either of them.
NBC, CBS, ABC and MSNBC polls have been oversampling Democratic voters and minimizing weighted averages of Republican voters. It doesn’t matter because here is the thing, no matter how one cooks the numbers, Romney is well within a comfortable striking range and there are still 55 days before the elections! And unless the media has learned how to make about ten great big white elephants disappear in front of a national electorate, there are still 23 million unemployed Americans in the U.S., we still have a $16 trillion national debt, a $1.3 trillion budget deficit, a Medicare system headed for insolvency, an economy headed for a fiscal cliff in January, a foreign policy that has imploded and gone up in smoke all over the world to the point that our enemies no longer fear us and our enemies no longer trust us. No matter how much the media attempts to distract or divert public attention away from the Obama record and no matter how many excuses Obama makes, no matter how many fingers Obama points at the dismal economy he inherited, the Bush Administration, at Congress, at two guys that made an offensive movie about the prophet Mohamed, at the end of the day, not even the press nor a misguided liberal media will be capable of running block for the president. There are still three debates and the history of Reagan defeating Jimmy Carter and Clinton defeating George Bush Sr. when the primary issue was a bad U.S. economy, demonstrates the overall collective wisdom of the American people.
SeekingSanity
I've changed my opinion about Hillary in the last few years. I'm willing to to give her a chance, providing what her platform might be. Jeb Bush...? I think your right, I like him but I can't vote for a Bush. I'm unaffiliated in Colorado and it looks like we will be sending America's President back to the White House!
Jonny R Goode
I like your ...Obama 2012/Romney 1040
Polls can be made to say anything. 16 trillion, failed foreign policy, fast and furious, and the list goes on. please seek the truth and stop listening to the biased media. OurAmerican lives depend on it.
...and PLEASE, let us not forget about the House and Senate!! We should not rest until Boehner is kicked to the Betty Ford Clinic!!
Are you kidding? The debates will be the last nail in the coffin for Mitt Romney. He's terrible at debating. He couldn't even contain mindless idiots like Rick Perry and Rick Santorum. And you expect him to beat Obama at something he is quite good at? You must believe in fairy tales.
Honestly, Daniel, stop whining because your candidate is circling the drain. He is all you deserve because he is the best your party can offer. Sit back and enjoy the election: I know I will!
President Obama in November! He is clearly our only rational choice!
Gotta wonder if there are any of those "leaning Republican" states that will turn into toss ups between now and election day ?
Can the Republicans lose the House as well ?
At this point, even George W. is voting for Obama, he has never liked that Willard anyway....
Willard reminds W. of that cowboy that gets his Salsa from Newyork city...
According to W., "he sure aint one of us...", I might as well vote for that dude that's going to secure my Pension, Medicare and government handouts...
I wonder how many republicans will feel obligated to hold their nose when they vote for this dud. I cannot believe anyone will vote for him with their head held high. Obama is going to win going away, when the debates come and he hands mitt his magic underwear, and then Ryan stammers his way through Biden. It is likely to be the biggest landslide in history.
Fixed it for you.
Seeing as how this is nbc reporting this,it figures they would say ovomit is winning:( Theres alot of polls out there and they all say different things.Did nbc tell you that ovomit confessed that the riots in the midell east werent from a dang movie but had been planed for quite a while,im sure not. Does this liberal news tell you about all your freedoms ovomit is taking away,well if the pig gets reelected id love to be there when your kids will be living a whole different way of life and ask you what is was like when you grew up? Then you can say,well little one we had all these freedoms but we drank to much of ovomits kool-aide and didnt know what we were doing,so we done voted him back in:( You fools better be ready for the end of life as you know it!!
Just another phony poll. If they are correct then it means that people are getting dumb and dumber.
Consider that not one dem can list anything that Obama has done to improve the economic situation in this country. Sure, you've got some that say he's saved the country from collapse. But, none of those people can say what he's done to save the country. Quite frankly these people shouldn't be allowed to vote as it is clear that they either aren't using their brains or they don't have brains.
Of course, there is the other fact that the DNC media has been reporting that the recession ended in June of 2009, thanks to Obama and the stimulus bill. So, things have been on the upswing since then, or so we are led to believe. Yet, today the same DNC media are reporting that the economy has "bottomed out." So, we've been in a recovery for 3 years and yet we've just bottomed out. I'm sure those who are voting for Obama can make sense out of it, but for anyone who has a brain and can think logically, it makes no sense at all, other than the obvious that the DNC media has been lying from the get go, which is the case. But, hey, let's vote for Obama because....... well, I don't want a lib, who has nothing better to go on, to accuse me of being racist. After all, no one could possibly disagree with the ONE.
"Polls ahead"
Seriously, .. SERIOUSLY?? If this is true, and I don't believe it is.. these have to be the stupidest people EVER.
Sixteen TRILLION dollars in debt and counting... 47 MILLION Americans on food stamps.. 1 in 6 Americans on SOME type of government stipend.. Unemployment over 8% for over FORTY straight months... GTMO still open... Gas at nearly FOUR dollars a gallon... Illegals streaming in over unprotected borders... and
THIS... is the path you want to continue on? Amazing.. Absolutely Mind Numbing.
Daniel, I know you guys have an issue with Arithmetic/matematics but you see in order for any sample (poll) to be accurate it has to matematically represent the population it purports to measure. Subsequently, there is this problem, the general populace has more democrats than republicans in it's makeup. So the poll ends up with more dems than repubs but it is also balanced again by the tendency of a greater percentage of republicans to vote than dems. Your real worry should be pointed at whether the dems turn out in high numbers. Not how the pollsters set up their polls. They want to be accurate, they don't care about your ideology but rather the math thing helps them represent the "universe" they intend to study. Sorry but I guess you will have to get over it and try to stop more people from voting. As to the debates, all I can say is HaHaHa Ha Ha Ha.
ever wonder why the democratic party symbol is an a$$
Nail meet coffin.
Hey Mitt, "the 47% say goodbye"
President Obama, "the 47% say hello and lets get this country moving forward!"
IPCMFG
It is because WE KICK ASS!
By the way, todays Senate vote on the Veterans work program just cant be true??? It was their plan, it had bipartsan support which must have been bad as they philibustered it. Really, do you understand that all soldiers stand together in support of each other, doesn't matter what war we fought, an attack on one is an attack on all. I guess if you don't have the experience or a kid in the military you don't understand this brotherhood thing, oh yeah thats righ all you want is to send them to war, what happens then is tough sh** you guys have some sad senators in congress.
mitt is nothing more than a spineless fraction of a little man. the only conviction he stands up for is his refusal to show his tax returns. could he be a part of the 47% of those who dont pay income tax? his behavior reveals a lack of any courage. a self proclaimed "patriot" of this country. no mitt we vets call you a draft dodger! no courage, and of course no apology.
There, I fixed it for you.
Your welcome.
Mr. Romney will make a better President then President Obama. Mr. Romney Made his Fortune with his smart brain. President Obama made it with his smooth talk. Anyone could talk smooth and blind you with his voice but at the end they do not deliver. Mr. Romney made it and wants The American people to make it and not to depend so much on the Government. President Kennedy said Ask not what the government could do for you but what you could do for you Government.
Roger Z...I agree 100%, the fact that this is the best the republicans could come up with says a lot ! I also feel that he has lost support from many who actually agree with what he said, but feel that anyone stupid enough to say those things out loud is not presidential material !
@tonybeeerm
I'm not implying that he'll do well in the debates. I'm just saying that he might (just maybe) have his 'moment' and people might connect with his message, whatever that may be. Most people don't have time to keep tabs on what each candidate is saying / doing on a daily basis, unlike the people on the vine. But many Americans WILL look at the debates as their way of making their final decision. The electorate can be fickle.
On a side note, I fall into the 47% that he feels are 'victims'. Raising 3 kids with a stay-at-home mom (by our choice) puts me in that category. I was offended, considering we don't get govt. aid and aren't looking for a handout.
Recent history shows that is 55 more opportunities to alienate and piss off the American People.
Obama/Biden 2012
Hillary Clinton/Sherrod Brown 2016
Do you really believe that gregorio057? So then tell me why Mr. Romney won't show his tax returns and thus show us how he made that fortune. Most people already know how, but it should be on the record.
IPCMFG,
"ever wonder why the democratic party symbol is an a$$"
Because Democrats don't see pink elephants like Republicans do. You guys need to lay off that homemade moonshine. I already registered for early voting so I can vote for Obama in the comfort of my own home without even having to go to the polls.
@re@son@ble in MD - no, I think most people are very well informed these days. And the closer it gets to the election, the more vocal they become. Mitt Romney is a proven liar and flip flop artist. That isn't a good trait to have. It basically kept John Kerry from unseating GW Bush, in which I was amazed. If any one president deserved only one term, it was Dubya. Think of how much better we may be by now if he hadn't had another 4 years to further bankrupt the country.
tonybeerm I'm not interested in his taxes. If he committed fraud i believe the IRS would have been on top of him. President Obama didn't show his birth certificate big deal. Mr. Romney would put this Great nation rolling again. do you know how many people are out of work. President Obama want people not to work and he will send them a check. he want to be modern time Robin hood.
tonybeeerm,
"Mitt Romney is a proven liar and flip flop artist."
Yes, I noticed in the news lately Romney has now flopped in a more "moderate" direction on a number of things. Or did he flip again? Was this latest change a flip or a flop?
Goodbye Romney!!!!!
OBAMA/BIDEN....2012!!!!
This "Obama ahead" stuff is old news.
It's tied at 47% each nationally. Romney has gained major ground since the whining, snivelling "Oh we're sorry for the YouTube video" garbage.
Sorry for the YouTube video. Real presidential.
Polls used to be fairly accurate, until some highly biased media outlets started 'playing with the numbers'.
NBC is one of the worst in this regard - oversampling about 30% more Democrats than Republicans in order to give the false impression that Obama is ahead. If they used the most current surveys of 'Party Affiliation', they would actually show Romney with a slight lead - but of course that would not play into their 'Romney is desperate and Obama is in control' narrative.
By the way - Marist has about the worst record for accuracy of any of the 12 major pollsters included in the Realclearpolitics average of polls for the 2004 and 2008 elections - overstating the Democrat by an average of about 3%. Rasmussen had the best accuracy - missing by an average of only 1% without any bias. Gallup also had a poor record - missing by over 3% with a Democratic bias. Others with nearly a 3% average error - always biased towards the Democrat, included Reuters and, surprisingly - Fox News.
Can someone tell me what is a FREE ENTITLEMENT, I know we have 7% on Welfare , Who are the other 40%? Are they the Senior Citizens who have paid into the Social Security INSURANCE part of the 40% are they the Military who fight and die for YOUR FREEDOM part of the 40% are they the struggling college STUDENTS who have a part time job part of the 40% Is it my 2 young kids (12 and 13) part of the 40% who dont pay Federal Taxes? Is it Mitt Romney who has not paid ant taxes in 2008, 2009, 2010,? I pay 22k in federal taxes, about 28% of my money. I have no problem being a good AMERICAN for my kids,your kids,My Military Your Military, My Senior mom and Your Senior Mom and Your College Kids because 1 day Hopefully my Kids will go to College. Why is it OK for Mittens and the top 1% not pay there Fair Share? are They and You REALLY THAT UN AMERICAN?
MEDICAL INSURANCE
SOCIAL SECURITY INSURANCE
DISABILITY INSURANCE
UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE
They are not Freebies They are Insurances That I and you all pay into
Why should we give them up so Romney and the 1%ers get more Tax Breaks, They have more than they and there children can ever use, it makes no sense for us to suffer so they can put more $$ in the Cayman Islands If Robme/Lyin Ryan get into office They will add an additional 2 TRILLION DOLLARS OF DEBT YEARLY for tax breaks for the WEALTHY
Jimmy Carter was ahead at this point in 1980. Who do they poll? People that have nothing to do all day but sit home.
This means nothing hehe. Oats for the sheeples...
It is going to be a pleasure to be here on the vine come election day :)
That is only if you want to see our children GET FATTER AND MORE AND MORE BEHIND THE REST OF THE COUNTRY IN EDUCATION.
Already SCHOOL BUDGETS ARE SO STRESSED WITH ALL THE CUTS THAT THE Republicans have made to Education, that schools are FORCED to serve French fries and BREAD for Breakfast. They have NO CHOICE.
Mitt Romney has promised to cut teacher's salaries and increase the number of student in the classrooms. What this MORON does not know, is that the schools are REALLY stressed to the max already.
Children that count on the school to have a nutritious breakfast ARE JUST PARASITES, ACCORDING TO ROMNEY. I AM SURE THAT Ann Romney WOULD HAVE STARTED TO work IF HER 5 SONS DID NOT HAVE A CHEF PREPARING SPECIAL MEALS FOR HER, AND HER CHILDREN. oH! BUT WE HAVE TO FEEL sorry FOR THE "Struggling"MILLIONAIRE, THAT ONLY HAS A ONE MILLION DOLLAR horse TO DISTRACT HER FROM HER SICKNESS.
-VIOLINS PLAYING-
pfft!
You know when Romney said the 47% who pay no taxes are Obama supporters, I guess he forgot all those American troops overseas in COMBAT ZONES (he know's nothing of those), pay no federal income tax, and, even I doubt they are all President Obama supporters.
Was he really picking on our FIGHTING men, and women?
OBAMA/BIDEN....2012!!!!
Gallup says even steven: 47-47. I guess Gallup is going to get a phone call from the Obamaczar White House telling them to "rethink" their polling data.
Carter was ahead of Reagan just weeks prior to the election, but the debates when Ronnie put that idiot Carter in his place swayed the thinking Americans to vote their conscious. Too bad today this nation is much more full of idiots than back in 1980 when that other president failed us domestically and internationally. We get the leader we deserve. That's why the thinking Americans are figuring out their exit strategies should Obama get re-elected...including exiting the nation in retirement. New Zealand is looking pretty sweet. I can start a business there no problem.
Don't be ridiculous. RETIREES and MILITARY are NOT included in the MOOCHER class, liberal. And learn how to spell "know's" next time. You'll at least look a little smarter. You clowns are just looking more desparate every day. See you Obamazombies in November when my vote cancels out your vote! Obama doesn't even know what the freaking DEFICIT is according to what he said on Letterman (much more important for him to go on talk shows than meet with Israel's leaders in a CRISIS).
The Quote of the Decade:
"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, "the buck stops here.' Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006
Restore America and get some adults in the White House again: ROMNEY/RYAN 2012
@tonybeeerm
For everyone's sake, I really hope you're right and I'm wrong. I really mean that. I just have a hard time believing this is the case when I see some of the outrageous accusations about both candidates. You have to really wonder; involved doesn't mean informed. I consider myself informed, because I actually take the time to confirm/ refute some of the claims made about either candidate. Hell, I've even gone to both of their web sites and looked at their positions.
My main concern isn't whether President Obama is re-elected. It's congress and the senate. i don't want to see 4 more years of 'nothing happening', because congress and the senate WON'T work with the president. I view America as the human body: everything in moderation. No extremes. We ARE and will continue to be a great nation of people. We (collectively) have somehow lost our way of working together for the better of everyone. I'm only one vote, but I plan to do my part.
I wonder if anyone won the presidency while still losing not only HIS state and the one he was governor of and the one his car elevator is in, but the state of the wannabe VEEP? I wonder if the repubs remember all their celebrating the fact Gore lost his home state? 55 more days for etch-a-sketch to shake it up, but remember, an etch-a-sketch is a temporary art form.
Swallow-2813582 "Daniel, I know you guys have an issue with Arithmetic/matematics but you see in order for any sample (poll) to be accurate it has to matematically represent the population it purports to measure."
Therein lies the problem with some polls. For a Liberal news pollster to say that there are 10% to 13% more people who self-identify as Democrats than Republicans defies logic. Even in 2008, when there were a record number of self-identified Democrats and record low for Republicans, their lead was only 7% (39% vs 32% for Republicans). Recent surveys show that Republicans now have a slight advantage (37.6% Republicans vs 33.3% Democrats - and the 2010 blowout by Republicans in the 2010 mid-terms tends to confirm this), so dramatically oversampling Democrats is a severe distortion, and since it is happening all of the time with Liberal media driven polls, one has to ask "Is it just 'chance', or is it deliberate distortion?"
A 10% oversampling distortion would create a false Obama lead of 8% (exit polls in 2004 and 2008 confirm that 90% of party affiliated voters vote party line). If Obama has only a 5% lead in these distorted polls, then it's quite possible that Romney has REAL lead of about 3%.
This guy forgot to write SARCASM at the end of his sentence.
Honestly, Roy. Your candidate couldn't possibly be choking simply because he is blithering idiot, could he? The polls report the opinions of the American people and they are rejecting your imbecilic candidate. Deal with it.

Re@so@ble in MD,
"It's congress and the senate. i don't want to see 4 more years of 'nothing happening', because congress and the senate WON'T work with the president."
I know what you're talking about, but Congress is a harder problem to solve. Everyone says, "Throw the bums out!", but, of course, the bums they are talking about are someone else's Congressmen which those people might happen to like and will vote for. To them, it's your Congressman who is the bum.
Jhawke "Gallup says even steven: 47-47"
Interesting, isn't it?
Here's some other scary information for Obama - Gallup is polling Registered voters, which overstates the Democrat by an average of about 4% (see link). Also, since Gallup shows a 7 day moving average, and Obama was well ahead among Gallup's Registered voters just a few days ago, that means that Obama's current number must be below that 47%.
One other thing to keep in mind about Gallup - they have a poor track record of consistently OVERSTATING the Democrat's strength - by an average of 3.05% for 2004 and 2008.
http://www.gallup.com/poll/110272/Registered-Voters-vs-Likely-Voters.aspx
Yeah Irrespond...is that the only beef you have with my post? I see you didn't have a WHOLE LOT of counter-points to my post. The truth is toxic to you liberals.
Make a Conservative mad: tell a lie.
Make a Liberal mad: tell the truth.
Even right wing Rasmussen is showing Obama ahead, along with Associated Press, Monmouth, Pew Research, NBC, FOX, and CBS, and the best you can scrounge up is that Gallup shows them as tied? Doesn't that sound a little pathetic to you? No? I didn't think you'd be able to recognize it...
Romney casts himself as 'change' candidate in seizing on Obama comment
Willard, if the Mitt doesn't Fit, we must Omit...
witchrunner - Consider that not one dem can list anything that Obama has done to improve the economic situation in this country.
Here ya go, witch:
Best argument there is for not going back to the policies of the GOP:
Private Sector Payroll Employment
This was the CNN Money headline in Bush's last month of office:
Job loss: Worst in 34 years
Employers slashed 598,000 more jobs in January
'Nuf said!
http:/www.morningstartv.com/oak-initiative/marxism-america
watch the video and choose for your self
Yeah, I'll be voting for Obama over a lunatic, Magic Underwear Mormon Cultist, who also works full-time as a LIAR and a FRAUD
I can only hope the GOP does nothing but continue to prop Mittens up in front of crowds of people and give him a microphone. What a goddam moron -- it's like watching reruns of Dumbya "oh, did I say something stupid again?" Bush.
Romney no longer leads in even a single poll:
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/us/general_election_romney_vs_obama-1171.html
And for those of you chanting "Obama is Carter", let me remind you that the ONLY way Reagan won that election was by stealing Carter's debate prep book and using it to cheat in their single debate - held one week before the election.
Don't you remember?
There's no way in hell Reagan could ever have pulled off that performance without knowing what Carter would say in advance. But Carter made a mistake in scheduling only one debate, held a week before the election.
And the rest is history.
Better hope Mitt has Obama's debate book!
OBAMA/BIDEN 2012 SAVE SOCIAL SECURITY< MEDICARE<VETERANS,MIDDLE INCOME AMERICANS...
Romney/Ryan LIE and LIE.. he dont care about the poor, he dont care about 47% of the population. He will do this and do that but NEVER tells you HOW.... He refuses to show you his Income TAXES to prove he can do what he claims. just trust him... SINCE WHEN DOES ANYONE TRUST A POLITICIAN?
The DEBATEs will prove very interesting... Romney cannot claim off the cuff when he screws up this time.. they have what the subjects will be FAR in advance.
All you Romney followers... Donald Trump says Your Fired... Romney has your pink slips ready and dont care how you take care of yourselves.. so GOOD LUCK!
Don't worry, ROY WILSON. Even after you continue wasting your time here with your misinformation -- at this MSNBC website you continually whine about but spend all your time at (go figure...) -- after Obama trounces Mittens and his Magic Underwear (the Mormon Cultist that you blindly follow) you'll still be able to go back to your full-time job as mayor of Smallpenis, Wyoming, sit behind your big walnut desk, and dream of the Dick Cheney glory days.
Both parties have been co-opted by big money. Obama is like a dog that has been trained to fetch for his master. Romney is like a dog that has been trained to rip out throats for his master.
Im not too thrilled with the Obama administration's obvious corpratocracy-governing, but it is corporatocracy lite with the DEMs. There IS a lesser of two evils here.
I have listened to Celente rag on people who will vote for Obama with a lesser-of-two-evils mindset. Celente says that these people have no self respect. What Celente refuses to deal with is reality. If people stay home and dont vote in some deluded idea of sending a message, the only message that the power-crowd will get is that we have given a "mandate" to the Republicans, who would then end up winning because all of their crowd will vote because they cant see this country dissolve into neofeudalism fast enough. Sadly, without serious revolt from the masses, that is where we are headed. The real question we answer now by voting, is whether we want to take the slow-boat there, or the express train.
In a nutshell, it will be a cold day in Kolob before I vote for Romney.
but that doesn't mean we will turn this Titanic around. Its heading for the ice regardless. In a strange way, perhaps if Romney won, then when this whole ultracapitalist mess hits the glacier , the Repubs would be forever tagged as the undoubted cause of it. Its coming either way.
But then I think - these Republicans are cynical and amoral - and the CEOs (who are almost all repubs) would miraculously start hiring like crazy if Romney won, to give an artificial goose to the economy to bamboozle the people that republican governments cause strong economies. I do believe that the economic issues are being exacerbated here by a capitalist system the power of which lies largely with republicans. I do believe there is an organized effort to NOT hire to make this president look bad.
Either way, you are all witnessing the end-results of the greed-is-good amoral philosophy of capitalism. Every form of governance is vulnerable to corruption and dysfunction. American capitalism has become riddled with corruption (which was bound to happen with the greed-is-good philosophy). It IS failing.
Even so, I am not letting the dog that will rip my throat out into the White House, if I can help it.
Cold day in Kolob if Romney gets into the White House now, and God help Obama in the next 4 years... People arent going to stand for much more corporate largesse, and the DEMs are far from blameless.
Jhawke, I suggest you know what you're talking about before you say something stupid, oh wait it's too late. Service members deployed to a war zone do not pay any taxes, that puts them in the 47%. Since I have family and friends that were in war zones numerous times I think I know what I'm talking about.
What I don't get about Romney supporters is are they in a hole? do they not see how terrible this man is at foreign policy, his campaign is poorly run which is a reflection on how he would run the country, he has yet to tell us what he would do except increase the debt by $4 trillion with tax cuts and increased spending. What is known about his plan experts have proven will not work. Here is a suggestion, turn off fox, rush and all the other idiots and think for yourselves. I'm tired of hearing "facts" from conservatives that I can quickly prove to be false with non partisan sources with facts.
BTW those of you who think it's a close race, stop looking at the national polls, the state polls are more accurate, and it's the electorit that matters. The polls have gone way up since Romneys 47% speech.
forestgirl - Morning Star Ministries?
That's the best source you've got? The new name of Jim Bakker's "Heritage USA" ???
Girl, you need to get out of the woods and learn something!
MorningStar Publications and Ministries is a ministry founded by Rick and Julie Joyner in 1985. It began with the biblical mandate of Matthew 24:45-46: "Who then is the faithful and sensible slave whom his master put in charge of his household to give them their food at the proper time? Blessed is that slave whom his master finds so doing when he comes."
Yeah, I'm all for following some nut who things I'm supposed to be a blessed slave.
Strengthinnumbers - that is the best and most realistic post i have ever seen on these sites. Because it's true.
From MSNBC:
As well as 60% of American corporations.
Heck. Even Fox "News" is predicting a President Obama landslide. They're shaking their heads wondering why they backed these losers.
For the 47%, the 52%, even the riches 1%, vote for President Obama and a congress that will work with him.
Have you heard of the new party? Mainstream Republicans. Made up of the sane people from the republican party.
Anybody else tired of this crap?
Because the money is going to those at the top. That makes the median income drop.
Income Gains at the Top Dwarf Low- and middle-Income Households
Let's roll!
House/Senate/Obama/Biden 2012
T'was the night before elections,
And all thru' the town,
Tempers were flaring
Emotions ran up and down.
I, in my bathrobe
With a cat in my lap,
Had shut off the TV,
tired of political crap.
When all of a sudden,
There arose such a noise,
I peered out my window,
Saw Obama and his boys
They had come for my wallet,
They wanted my pay
To hand out to others
Who had not worked a day!
He snatched up my money,
And quick as a wink,
Jumped back on his bandwagon
As I gagged from the stink.
He then rallied his henchmen
Who were pulling his cart.
I could tell they were out
To tear my country apart!
'On Fannie, on Freddie,
On Biden and Ayers!
On Acorn, on Pelosi'
He screamed at the pairs!
They took off for his cause,
And as they flew out of sight,
I heard him laugh at a nation
Who wouldn't stand up and fight!
So I leave you to think on this one final note...
IF YOU DON'T WANT SOCIALISM GET OUT AND VOTE !!!!
Author unknown
Obama big FLIP FLOPPER.
I do not think that the advantage of Obama last long, once demonstrated his incompetence in the handling of foreign policy, denying facts to protect himself from the embarrassment of his failure in the Middle East. The death of Osama has not stopped to AlQaeda, only reaffirms how wrong that was Obama in his relationship with the Muslims. The Arab spring is a failure as well he is.
Obama like Carter one term President
Send Obama back to Chicago to do his job of Community Organizer.
We need a leader, with right policies.
Romney 2012
You guys have really raised wishful thinking to a fine art, haven't you?
If Obama is so sure of his victory, he must go to the White House and stop campaigning and start to act as President. But he won't, because he knows anything can happen, because he needs to continue lying about how "good" is the economy, because he needs to continue lying about his success in foreign policy, when the Middle East is in flames, and Muslims shouting, Obama, Obama, we are all Osama. Right now his great triumph of kill Osama already is not relevant. They kill Ambassador Stevens and Obama did not admit the truth.
Hey oskar - mind telling us what Romney's "policies" are?
Since he doesn't seem to want to tell anyone.
Reasonable
Obama has to beat Romney silly before the debates. That is why the left campaign is Romney might as well through in the towel is showered upon us, and the polls are run to show him winning even though he is actually flopping in most areas of responsiblilty.
Even during the 2008 there were rarely polls reaching 10 points in disagreement. I'm seeing 10 + points sway in many states. It all has to do with sampling.
You two most consistently correct pollsters are Rasmussen & Gallup. Rasmussen works on the likely voter side. They do an extensive monthly poll of 3000 - 5000 registered voters to determine what mix of voters is going to vote. This is the results for August. People seeing themselves as Republicans is now over 37.6% and democrat as 33.3%.
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/mood_of_america/partisan_trends
Now, compare that to the majority of polls being run, they are using 5 - 13 points more democrats than republicans.
Gallup's tracking survey follows actual party registrations. Last month there was another company that found that in the 10 swing states, Republican registrations were down 79,000 and democrat registrations were down 800,000. This makes the 5 - 13% more democrat voters a total farce, but that is what the polling companies are doing.
Why? 79% of the news media is registered democrats and from following up on the polling companies, about 75% of them are owned by democrats.
Wait until the last week or last couple of days before the election. Then and only then will the poll companies switch to the reality of what really is happening.
I don't know about you, but I hate when people try to tell me what to think. So I am pretty immune to being outnumbered in reading opinions. If we care about our country, we need not forget the loyalties of those who are feeding us news, and poll results.
I had 2 GOP/TP=American Taliban over for dinner 1 night and I told them That I knew where the Fountain of knowledge was and That I would gladly take them there. I told them that they would know the meaning of life, They would know about god. They would be smarter and Richer than 10 Mitt Robme as I told them this Cletus looked over to his 1 tooth Brother Butthead and said." cmon butthead and lets git home ma is cookin sum possum fer supper" The moral of the story is you can take the GOP/TP=American Taliban to the fountain of knowledge but you cant make them THINK.
realamericanfirst: funny things about graphs, they lie. Now according to what you have there approximately 3 million people are employed in the private sector now than were employed when Obama took office. But, a funny thing happened on the way to the market, according to the Dept. of Labor figures there were 142,187,000 employed in the private sector. Now according to the Dept. of Labor, there were 142,101,000 employed in the private sector as of the end of August this year. Last I knew, 142,101,000 is less than 142,187,000 by 119,086. You need to look at the facts, even as put out by the Obama administration to get to the truth. We all know that these figures are guestimates to begin with, but you'd think that if they were making up numbers they'd at least make up numbers that support their position. http://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/surveymost
nuf said!
Talking to some of my republican neighbors in Wisconsin they are even getting upset with Romney. Several didn't sound like Romney supporters anymore although they didn't say they wouldn't vote for him one said he would sit this one out. Things could get even worse for Romney as the conversations took place before his 47% remarks!.
independent--I hope the "SD" in your "handle" stands for "San Diego" because if you are from South Dakota you are giving the rest of us a bad name, irrespective of party affiliation.
I can field that one. Start aimless wars with no end. Blood and violence here and abroad. That's the Romeny / Republican plan.
Tom ,Yreka
That's why sane people are voting for Mitt Romney.
You can not borrow your way out of a financial disaster. Which you will see very soon.
You di not here this part of what Romney said the other day while talking about the people Obama has stuck in a corner with welfare and food stamps.
BTW Romney will not take anyones welfare check away. What he will do is fix the economy so that check will continue to come. America is on the verge of bankrupcy and the checks to everyone will stop when that happens.
If the second credit down grade the other day did help you figure it out well you deserve what Obama is about to do to you and the rest of America.
This is what Mitt Romney said is the biggest problem in our country and what he says about the Federal Reserve.
“Yeah, it’s interesting…the former head of Goldman Sachs, John Whitehead, was also the former head of the New York Federal Reserve. And I met with him, and he said as soon as the Fed stops buying all the debt that we’re issuing—which they’ve been doing, the Fed’s buying like three-quarters of the debt that America issues. He said, once that’s over, he said we’re going to have a failed Treasury auction, interest rates are going to have to go up. We’re living in this borrowed fantasy world, where the government keeps on borrowing money. You know, we borrow this extra trillion a year, we wonder who’s loaning us the trillion? The Chinese aren’t loaning us anymore. The Russians aren’t loaning it to us anymore. So who’s giving us the trillion? And the answer is we’re just making it up. The Federal Reserve is just taking it and saying, “Here, we’re giving it.’ It’s just made up money, and this does not augur well for our economic future.
You know, some of these things are complex enough it’s not easy for people to understand, but your point of saying, bankruptcy usually concentrates the mind.”
Economists are warning it is just around the corner. Obamas policies and spending are taking us there at a high rate of speed.
Don't stop at not voting for Romney. If we want our country back we must stop the take-over by the extreme right by not voting for any Republicans in this cycle. If this election is such a landslide for Democrats, who are still true Americans, we can stop the slide of the conservative side toward the un-american tea party advocates. We need an alternative, and the way to get a legitimate alternative is to completely eliminate the bought and paid for, illiterate and unthinking, completely irrational tea party as the alternative. We need someone of character to stand up on the right, not the likes of Newt Gingrich and Michelle Bachmann, or (gagg) the erstwhile queen of the north.
You better believe Mitt Romney will take your welfare away foodstamps,healthcare,Medicare,veterans benefits,social security and what ever else Mitt has to cut to give the 1 % their big tax cuts.No Obama's policies are not doing it. It is the disfunctional congress,Norbert Norquest and the policies of George Bush Jr. that has brought us to this crises. You Republicans have it all worked out. Throw the poor,old,disabled veterans in the street and everything will become ok over night. You are only fooling yourself's if you think that. If you want to do some budget cutting then start with all the susidized programs for the rich corporations along with their big tax breaks and get off the backs of the poor and down trodden. You republicans say you have christian values but they sure don't come thru in your policy's.
maggiemay: A bit dramatic. Maybe if you took some time to read Romney's platform you'd understand how it can really help all Americans. If Pres. Obama is re-elected, we all lose.
FOX REPORT; Breaking News - once the election is over all citizens will join hands and become one big happy family.
Believe'n..... Sorry but the only people loosing in the election this year are the Obama haters and republicons, as it's obvious by your posts that you know as much about Romney as Romney knows about the average American voter: NOTHING!!! I've got a big box of Kleenex and depends for all of you right-wing cry babies. After we elect Obama AGAIN, will you whiners finally get out of the way of progress and let the adults start repairing what you morons crushed during 8 years of having it your way? We've had enough of your OBSTRUCTION and FAILURE to do anything in CONGRESS.
VOTE A STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC TICKET THIS YEAR AND REMOVE AS MANY REPUBLICANS FROM OFFICE AS POSSIBLE!!!! THEY ARE ALL THE SAME AND THEY HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING TO HELP THIS COUNTRY FOR THE LAST 11.5 YEARS!!!
Romney made his money from destroying jobs in this country, and ship them out to China. He also made his money firing people, then rehiring them, at lower wages, then sticking the newly acquired company with huge debts, and taking whatever money, to give to himself and investors. Romney made his money by STEALING it.
Buh bye Smitty, don't let the door hit you in the arse on your way back to the country club!
SO 3 states BFD. I thought there were 57 states..???? OOPPS!... I mean 50 states ;o)
jeff: Actually, I think there are more! He said he had visited 57, he didn't say that he had visited ALL 57. So that makes one think that he hasn't been to all of them.
stephace: I realize that's the party line, but if you and the others really believe that then I feel really sorry for you. I also feel sorry for our country because so many people are making such important decisions based on ignorance and lies. Care to give an example of what you were describing? If you don't, then I will assume that you know that what you posted are lies and you just wish to deceive others.
Stop watching the ads !!!
Make all that corporate money as effective as a fart in a wind storm !!!
I read the breakdown on the Colorado poll,and it wasn't weighted to give any advantage to Democrats.I read that crap all the time.But more importantly I urge everyone that canto vote in the early voting.And avoid the crowds on Nov.6th. But if you can't then get out and vote on Nov.6th. Polls or no polls,this election isn't over.The Republicans can still try to steal the election,and the vote of everyone of you counts to stop them.Voting is one freedom that all Americans share. So do your duty as an American and vote. Your vote counts as much as the vote of any 1%'er.
That kinda puts the kibosh on the Tea Party's claim that independents will not vote for Obama.
tony,
Do you think Romney's superpac guys are thinking of spending more millions to get him a uptick in these states?
I am thinking maybe not.... they will let him sink or swim with his debate preformance.
Maybe they are already being talked to by some folks for 2016.
Northstar...interesting thought. They may indeed cut their losses and dump a huge amount of money in the Senate races. They're going to have to get cracking though...the election is coming up fast. I noticed with the House races, they're being much more selective this time.... more money but more selective.
northstar - me thinks those financial backers are going to start looking real hard at the figures and begin to wonder how much longer they want to back a dead horse. After all, they didn't get to where they are by throwing money down the gutter. I would dearly love to be a fly on the wall at some of those behind closed doors meetings. LOL, i'll bet the language used is pretty intense.
tonybeeerm - I'll bet the Koch brothers are going insane right now.
You know, Ol Doc, I bet the brothers Koch wish they could get their money back right now. Squandering it on Romney's failed campaign was big mistake.
Most have already jumped ship. They are focusing on congressional elections now in an attempt to continue obstructing progress for 4 more years.
Wallstreet has shifted from Romney to backing Obama (so they can have favors when hes re-elected), which I find deplorable but its what they do.
All that is left is debates, Which is the presidents strong point so I can see why the money is betting on Obama. Still, shame the Republicans can't get back to being what they used to be. They have let Fox News and the teaparty destroy the core values they once stood for. I am forced to choose between a president who will only look out for the rich, destroying the middle class and ruining our quality of life, or one that can't get congress to work with him (even if I don't wholly blame Obama for that, the first 2 years he could not even reign in his own party).
Ol_Doc - no they went insane when they backed Romney! Now they're just shaking their heads and asking "Why?"
Obama/Biden 2012
joe32 - don't worry, if Obama gets back a majority, he won't squander the opportunity again. He's had 4 long, hard years of experience and he won't be running for re-election. I hope he gets the chance.
The smart money has been betting on Obama from day one. In the coming days, you will see the Pac (pun intended) join.
Down ballet Republicans are truly starting to get worried, particularly the Tea Party Senate candidates whose philosophy Romney has embraced and espoused (or at least tried to.)
Can GOP Representatives start to sound the "abandon Mitt" alarm soon, lest they lose the House too.
I didn't think there could be any worse candidates then McCain/Palin. I was wrong.
not really check out who the leftist pollster are
I hope your right Tony. It was always my thoughts that his inexperience was to blame for him not being tough enough on his own party. Still, a golden opportunity lost.
They've already started...in at least 2 Senate Races. I believe one was Florida, don't remember the other.
How many "transformations"can a person do IN A YEAR? EVERY TIME THAT THE ROMNEYS TALK, THEY SAY SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
They should just keep him UNDER A ROCK!!!! Where he belongs. Ann should just sit tight on top of the rock to prevent it from moving.
We are all free loaders: "I do not care for the poor, I do not care for those parasites"
I am not cutting my legs.
VOTE FOR OBAMA.
your vote is very important!!!!!
http:/www.morningstartv.com/oak-initiative/marxism-america
watch then choose for your self its not a hard choice. come on americans
To Republicans:
Sheldon Adelson ($36.5 million and counting) and the Koch brothers (multiple hundreds of millions and counting) are investing in this election. BIG TIME.
Don't you wonder what they expect their return to be?
Did you like the Citizens United ruling? Because it looks to me as though they're trying to buy a couple of more Supreme Court seats.
forestgirl - Morning Star Ministries?
That's the best source you've got? The new name of Jim Bakker's "Heritage USA"???
Girl, you need to get out of the woods and learn something!
MorningStar Publications and Ministries is a ministry founded by Rick and Julie Joyner in 1985. It began with the biblical mandate of Matthew 24:45-46: "Who then is the faithful and sensible slave whom his master put in charge of his household to give them their food at the proper time? Blessed is that slave whom his master finds so doing when he comes."
Yeah, I'm all for following some nut who things I'm supposed to be a blessed slave.
I have no doubt that the Republican party does not want Romeny to win. They would rather nothing get done for the next 4 years than to have someone in the White house who they can't control. Romney doesn't follow the party, he does change his views based on whats popular with the masses, but once in office he would be in charge not them.
You can't tell me that a campaign can be run this bad, that his handlers can't do better than what they are. They don't want him to win so they can get one of their men in office in 2016, after all they never wanted Romney nominated in the first place and the Clint Eastwood fiasco was part of the sabotage
gregorio057 - I'm not interested in his taxes.
Where your President gets his money, where he keeps it and how much he pays in taxes SHOULD be of interest to you.
Otherwise, how do you know who he's beholden to?
Can you imagine Republicans saying to Obama, "Never mind, Mr. President, we don't need to see your tax returns." ????
H Y P O C R I T E S
Many of the GOP superpacs are moving their spend over to the Senate and House races, especially after Mr Magic Underwear's comments about 47% of Americans.
DCC70
You don't speak for the republican party, and never will.
What is going to turn out this year is people who will vote for anyone but Obama. Romney may not have been the conservatives choice, but he is the only viable alternative to Obama. They could have put a cardboard figurine up and would probably win right now. Mitt in some ways is pretty close to that!
And neither do you, DB. What is your point?
Good thought Northstar, but keep in mind that half of those Romney superpac people have a strong chance of either being broke or in prison by 2016. That's just the kind of people they are.
Even DB Akron, well known conservative troll is turning against Romney:
"They could have put a cardboard figurine up and would probably win right now. Mitt in some ways is pretty close to that!"
Still posting the fantasy that he is paid to post, but...pretty much close to a cardboard figurine. Akron, the uninformed, Romney's not even quite cardboard, closer to the poorest quality newsprint, or...TP (and not the soft kind).
Actually DB Akron, wrong again.... the neo-cons would be better served using a cardboard cut out for a candidate. At least it wouldn't constantly be saying stupid crap like Mittsy does! lol
Db Akron..... At it again with that proud authoritative ignorance you so boldly wield in these threads. Good to see that even a die-hard right wing mental midget like you can't even stand Romney. How's that going to do for your voter turnout this year?
President Obama needs more than just a symbolic victory over the MT suit Willard, but he needs all of those voters that support his ideas and support his platform to VOTE A STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC TICKET this November. We gave Republicans a chance to cooperate in bringing this country back from the hole they put us in, but they turned their backs on the American public and they did it together! REPUBLICANS ARE ALL THE SAME. Now is the time for democrats to rally, work together, and get as many people to the polls as possible!!!!
GET OUT AND VOTE, VOTE, VOTE!!! THIS GOVERNMENT WILL ONLY FUNCTION WHEN WE REMOVE EVERY LAST TEA-BAGGER AND REPUBLICAN!!!!
Stop watching the ads !!!
Make all that corporate money as effective as a fart in a wind storm !!!
yawnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.....
Why NBC is your polls always have more Democratic then Republicans....... so one sided....
NBC. nuff said
Umm.. The latest Fox poll has Obama widening his lead in battleground states as well. So much for liberal polling bias.
NBC. The most viewed network in America. nuff said.
It might be due to higher numbers of registered Democrats, registered Republicans and registered Indies/Unaffiliated in the particular states and the sample of likely voters being randomly selected according to the proportions of each group.
American Idol or the news portion? seriously Tony.
999,
Maybe that happens because there are more democrats than there are republicans in America?
Why NBC is your polls always have more Democratic then Republicans...
Even Rasmussen has Mr. Flip-Flop being.
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/president_obama_vs_republican_candidates.html
American Idol is on FOX. nuff said.
It's called fact time, that's why! The American people are sick of the corporate smokescreen and attempts to brainwash them. We're sick and tired of politicians who only worry about their own well being and the hell with them. Obama was handed a mess. These "people" have shown just who they are. They are getting what they deserve. Now regardless of what you believe, V O T E! Obama/Biden 2012!!!
tony...
American Idol is on FOX And, a lot of people have even stopped watching that!
Obama/Biden 2012
don't watch any of the garbage. NBC is watched for its outstanding news reporting and stellar Journalism. LOL RIGHT TONY
It's only been the top network news program for the last 30 years, or whenever Walter Cronkite retired. But don't let facts get in the way.
And if Simon Cowell was an American, he'd make a better presidential candidate than Mitt Romney, lol! Hell, for that matter, so would Paula Abdul.
metoo999...Judging from your grammar, I seriously doubt you could read "Dick and Jane", let alone the latest polls...
Can't you teabaggers find at least ONE person that isn't illiterate or a liar to speak for you?
good thing about hussein, there is no way to go down from here
better question is whether or not any of you deplorable Liberals can think for yourself.
yeah dont let current events get in the way. Im sure you remember Walter Cronkite? That was real journalism.
You can always go to the FOX blogs. Plenty of people there that agree with you. Their blogs are stupid and poorly created.
Perfect for the GOP audience!!!!!
Referrring to our current and future President by his middle name is like putting a dunce cap on.
It does not matter what news station you listen to,they all limit as to what you hear is to their liking.
Um...That part of what I wrote that included liars...caesar...that would be you.
Anyone else want to try???
http:/www.morningstartv.com/oak-initiative/marxism-america
watch and choose for your self it isnt a hard choice
Do you? If you did then you would know he was a life long Liberal and even supported Barrack H. Obama.
PJ
The number of registered democrats has been shrinking at 10 times the amount that republicans have experienced losses. The Polls are cooked pretty good.
oh yeah DB? Really... have you ever heard of Rasmussen Polling before? The self-professed best conservative election poll stats organization there is? In fact they like to tout that they predicted a George W Bush win over John Kerry all the way through. Well guess what pal? Rasmussen has President Obama over Mitt by 2+. The rest of the polls show as much as 8+, and none of them have Mitt ahead. Including your precious Fox!
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/us/general_election_romney_vs_obama-1171.html
Now mind you these results are up to date and do not include the projected Electoral College votes... don't look at them though because it will REALLY ruin your day!
Stop watching the ads !!!
Make all that corporate money as effective as a fart in a wind storm !!!
Its not over to the fat lady sings! some people are still trying to figure out if they are voting for dumb or dumber and dumber has had 4 years that can not help.
Boy, you need to turn your radio off, Obama is very successful, even with an obstructive tea bag house blocking almost everything.
NBC also the lowest rated news network in america. They misreport so often I doubt they would know the truth
John in Mi ::::You you need change your Union paper. The independant have not yet Voted and the polls stay away from them.
WE DO NOT WANT THE "FAT LADY" CHIRS CHRISTY SINGING "victory"
PLEASE REGISTER AND VOTE!!! THIS IS NOT A DONE DEAL. THE REPUBLICANS ALWAYS HAVE DIRTY TRICKS UNDER THEIR SLEEVE.
REMEMBER WHEN BUSH WON FOR THE SECOND TIME??????
Take what IRESPOND says seriously. We still need everyone to get out and vote like their life depends on it. You can never trust a Republican any farther than you can see them.
http:/www.morningstartv.com/oak-initiative/marxism-america
forestgurl, saw it, hated it. It's trash. Two thumbs down.
my turn wi
actually the use of independents vary from state to state. Sometimes they oversample independents when the independents trend in their favor their point, and other times they way undersample independent, when the independents don't favor their point.
You can actually alter the poll by polling weaker and stronger partisan areas of a state to throw the results too. The polling company can do that with race too. Example: If you want to make Obama look better in Florida, you can avoid polling in predominantly cuban hispanic areas, because they tend to vote republican. If the trend is solid republican in the hispanic areas, the thing to do would be undersample hispanics in favor of white americans or african americans.
Is this where you tell everybody that FOX contracted a Democratically controlled polling service? I mean, if you are going to write fiction, DB, you should include UFOs and dinosaurs to make your insane fantasies appear a little more believable.
Wow, I'm shocked. I would've thought most women would welcome the TP/GOP into their private areas. I guess the message is loud and clear. Stay away from our reproductive systems.
tonybeeerm grow up you fool watch this video and choose for yourself
http:/www.morningstartv.com/oak-initiative/marxism-america
Aw, the TP/GOP just want smaller government so it will fit up women's vaginas.
Forest Girl. I watched the video and I wonder why this seems so significant to you. This guy does not claim to be an historian and sites his point of view based on what? One could suppose you're predisposed to this slant but there's nothing but opinion being expressed here. My opinion is that as the population continues to grow out of control, socialism (its already here darlin') will continue to rear its necessary head in order to keep complete chaos from taking over. There's only a limited amount of earth and resources and this system channels the greatest amount of that to the wealthy and powerful. Then they appeal to your fear to keep their status. That's humanity dear, for better or worse. Willard's world is the world we all imagine we'll live in some day but not in your or my lifetime, I guess. I call that myth and many seem to buy it. Thats the Romney/Republican base.
If Obama is elected for a second term, just think of the mess he will inherit this time.
not if we get rid of the obstructionist Teabag Republicans in the House. It will be clean up in Aisle 3 time.
Fred, nope - we're going to get rid of as many of the obstructionist Republicans as possible so we can move the country forward - for everyone!
Obama/Biden 2012
The chances of that tony are slim to none.
whose fault from 08-10? Tea Party? GOP? Face it your canidate has a crappy record, so keep blaming away.
Translation, ONE PARTY RULE: AVE OBAMA MORITURI TE SALUTANT!
Considering the way the GOP/TP/Neo-Fascist Party is crashing and burning right now, in a few months there may only be one political party left to represent the American people. Where is the once-mighty GOP and when will they return to a more centrist position and give up on the right wing lunatic fringe? It has discredited them and it has alienated most Americans.
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/2012_elections_electoral_college_map.html
President Obama by default in November! There doesn't seem to be anyone running against him!
I'm not buying it. Obama has my vote, but mostly because Romney is such a horrible candidate and person. The only thing he can successfully tout is Romneycare (we got that, thanks) and his business experience (which is just a @!$%#ton of shady practices that screwed Americans out of jobs while he picked them clean like a vulture. So, 0 for 2.)
But Democrats had congress for 2 years. No, not a supermajority but enough of a majority that it should have been easy to buy out a few republicans on any issue and get it through. Yet they bickered and stalled on healthcare, each trying to get an earmark in there for themselves. Essentially, NOTHING got done those 2 years save healthcare. Which is why teabaggers got elected.
TLDR: Nothing will change for the better. All we can hope for is to maintain current standards.
you guys said that back in 08. and 10. how do you put it, 'not too bright are ya'
You wish. Too bad you libbies just couldnt have a coronation instead.
Caesar...you're starting to sound nervous. Could it be that you are beginning to see what the Republican party has degenerated into? The party of Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, and even Ronald Reagan no longer exists. The conservative party which counterbalanced the progressive party is gone. Gone are the days where members of Congress could disagree with one another but still come to a compromise in order to enrich the lives of Americans and defend the Nation. When the United States Government is attacked by a presidential candidate over an act of terrorism, before the Government has had a chance to issue a statement...that's beyond the pale. That's politics over Country. When the Senior Republican in the United States Senate states their number one priority is to cause the President to fail...that's beyond the pale. When Congressional members voluntarily sign an agreement with a lobbyist limiting their options to govern this Nation, for their own political advantage...that's beyond the pale. When corporations are granted more rights than American Citizens...that's beyond the pale.
Republicans speak of wealth redistribution as though it's something possible if Democrats get their way. Why wasn't it wealth redistribution when the top tax rates were reduced under Reagan and under GW Bush? That was the effect you know...redistribution of wealth to the top moneymakers. Why would you believe that when all is said and done, the American People would even consider voting for supply-side economics on steroids. The only thing to trickle down to the middle-class in the last 30 years has been warm, wet and yellow. It's time to bring back the Clinton tax rates at least. Better still would be the rates under Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Poor Caesar. His candidate is failing and he is spending his time either grasping at straws or concocting lies in a desperate effort to make reality conform to his insane fantasies. You think he would be used to being a loser by now, wouldn't you?
President Obama in November! His coronation will be in January! Don't miss it! LOL!
joe32,
The tea party wins in 2010 were all squandered away with the debt ceiling crises they created.
they get their next chance in the lame duck session...
And on top of that not one worthwhile job bill from Congress.
82% of the country think Congress stinks.
Caesar still can not comprehend the word "filibuster" (too many syllables...) and seems to have forgotten the minority-party obstructionism, unheard of in the history of the Senate, from '08 to '10.
I'm not saying they got anything accomplished, but that is exactly what I expect from fanatic radicals under the payroll of blood sucking corporations. I did not expect the bickering when democrats held congress. The chances of retaking the majority of congress is almost non existent for 2 more years.
I really want President Obama the Senate and the House to win because at the end all of you's will be crying what did we do? You have a lot of rich democrats but most of them keep their money to themselves. while Republican invest and produce jobs. just look around you how many new construction do you see. or think back when a Republican in office how many new construction did you see.
Why didn't you expect bickering within the Democratic Party. We've always been extremely independent (at least compared to the Republicans). The only fairly independent Republican I can even think of at the moment is Olympia Snow...and she's leaving. Leading Democrats is like herding cats...leading Republicans is telling them which direction to march.
Google "conservative brain" sometime.
gregorio057 - Do you actually believe any...ANY of the dribble you just posted? Talk about doublespeak.
yes filibuster. I just think Obama cant play well with others. BAHHAAA liberal sheep LOL @ U
Liberal Mantra AVE OBAMA MORITURI TE SALUTANT
Really, caesar?? Have you lost all sense of understanding? Are you bound and determined to prove to all of mankind how pathetic teabaggers are?
Nothing I can write would prove it more than you do every day. Thank you for demonstrating the "type" of person that supports Miss Mittsy. Nasty and pathetic.
He is the poster boy for the failed political ideology of the GOP/TP and, yes, he is proving to everyone who reads his harebrained and dishonest posts that he and his politics are pathetic. So, let him prattle on. He is just helping to bury his imbecilic candidate.
http:/www.morningstartv.com/oak-initiative/marxism-america
watch choose for yourself
Gregorio.. Republicans invest and produce jobs? Where the hell are all those jobs at during the 8 years of Bush.. oh yeah hemorrhaging near 750,000 a month. Republicans do not create jobs in this country, they send them overseas.
Forestgirl must have gotten a double scoop of crazy today. She is really out there.
Nate Silver tomorrow morning:
THIS IS EXCELLENT NEWS!!! FOR ROMNEY!!!
Romney sucks and so does the Brewers! Death to the tea party!!!!!
http:/www.morningstartv.com/oak-initiative/marxism-america
oh ok amisteree death to the tea party how about death to us all if obama is re elected watch the video
Better than America inheriting the mess known as mitt.
if hussein obama wins who will he blame the mess he is inheriting on
Will it matter who he blames the mess on? Facts show he is steadily improving our country since he took over. The only area of any concern is national debt. Seeing as no republican president has ever concerned themselves with that (for example, Regan spent more than every president before him COMBINED. Essentially he is the start of what we have today. Then lets not even talk about those unfunded wars coupled with historic tax cuts.), I would not expect a democrat to either.
Why doesn't everyone look at things like Joey? He has his finger on the facts like a Hillbilly squirrel hunter has his finger On the trigger at night in the hollow mak'n and test'n moonshine. Why, I bet he and his clan never voted for a Republican since reconstruction and never will. Look away Dixie land!
http:/www.morningstartv.com/oak-initiative/marxism-america
Funny. A guy that has "completely destroyed" America by now, sure seems to be getting mucho support from Americans.
Whazzup with that, anyway?
So you're saying the majority of Americans (at least in these states) are clueless?
That or the Fox news narrative is total BS, like most everything else they put out.
Drive by did you get shot in the head with a stray drive by bullet? The guy that completely destroyed America, well the three guys, are Rove, Dubya and Cheney. It never ceases to amaze me that people are this stupid. The GOP definitely has the brain dead, head in the sand vote locked up.
YOU MUST BELONG TO OUR HALF THAT ALSO GOT THROWN UNDER THE BUS, BUT YOU ARE STILL ON denial
A leading commentator remarked that many Americans feel guilty for 9-11, the Iraq War, the War on Terror, the Recession, global warming, 3rd world poverty, capitalism, unemployment, racism, sexism, religion, US wealth, etc. and want to go through 4 more years of penance with Obama to purge their collective conscience and emerge purified, righteous and glorified; ready for real hope and change under a new order world government.
Aw come on. Romney had his hand in destroying America, looting companies and then sending their manufacturing to communist China. Borrowing money on the companies assets, skimming off the top and then forcing the company into bankruptcy. This is a hard act to follow for anyone else destroying America.
Right now the America destroyers don't seem to be getting any traction.
OBAMA/BIDEN 2012 to continue the recovery
Romney 1040
Uh guys, methinks you missed the point of drive_by_observer's post. I do believe he was lambasting the republicon talking points.
Obama is starting to pull away. The more America learns about Robmey and Ryan's character the more they will turn away. It is only going to get worse for Republicans. And not just the top of the ticket either. These two dopes are hurting all Republicans even at the state level from what I have read.
Interesting how the national polls are showing Obama's post-convention bounce fading (today's Gallup poll of Registered Voters has them tied again). Perhaps it'll be reverse of the 2000 election - Romney wins popular vote, but Obama wins electoral. Hmmm, Jerry Brown may be sorry he's pledged California's electoral votes to whomever wins the popular vote...
Rob - oh darlin - go back to whatever you're drinking if you believe that! If you had checked you'd know the proposal doesn't have the number of overall votes to make it happen.
Obama/Biden 2012
At the current rate of dropping support, the local dog catcher won't want to be on the ballet with Romney, and the dog catcher puts the dogs IN the vehicle.
More interesting is how you claim ramussian is the only legit poll some time ago when it was the only one to show Mitt with a chance and now you are touting Gallup numbers despite every other poll claiming otherwise.
Polls have fairly large margins of error.
John Wesley is rolling in his grave over Obama and the brainwashed followers with his name! Charles is begging Gabriel to blow his horn before the whole Methodist clan goes ape over their new messiah!
Ryan's slowly realizing that he strapped his wagon to the horse that can't stop crapping.
Funny, a couple of statements about Romney's 47% crap and Ryan has just gone silent. I'm thinking he doesn't want to come out of this locked to a loser.
Ryan can't even pull his own state. The best he can do is to keep his mouth shut, his head down, and quietly try to win his old congressional seat. That's all he an do at this point.
RYAN will win in Wi.
Ryan is losing Wisconsin big time. Read 'em and weep:
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/wi/wisconsin_romney_vs_obama-1871.html
Yes, Ryan might win his congressional seat in Wi, My turn Wi. But the state will go blue, blue, blue.
No amount of spin from Romney campaigners can cover up the fact that this election is slipping away fast. The way the electoral map is shaping up, Obama could clinch the election by ONLY winning the toss-up states of Ohio and Iowa.. or only winning Florida by itself.
More good news for Obama: Romney says he's going to increase his public appearances! The more we hear him talk, the better for the president. What an inept campaign..
It is safe to say he lost Ohio by a large margin. I expect the next polls to be double digit, since John Glenn has officially endorsed Obama. For the record, he gave McCain a 5 point boost when he endorsed him last year. The old people and the military of Ohio revere John Glenn.
Florida would surprise me if it turned out blue. With all the crap that went on in 2004 I just can not expect that state to be free of ill-doings come counting time.
A Comprehensive List Of Obama's Worst Executive Orders
JUNE 15, 2012 BY LAURIE ROTH
There have been over 900 Executive Orders put forth from Obama, and he is not even through his first term yet. He is creating a martial law 'Disney Land' of control covering everything imaginable. Some of the executive orders he has signed recently have been exposed thanks to 'Friends of Conservative Action Alerts.' They have compiled a choice list of 'Emergency Powers, Martial law executive orders': Get your headache medication out while you still can without a prescription.
* Executive Order 10990 allows the Government to take over all modes of transportation and control of highways and seaports.
* Executive Order 10995 allows the government to seize and control the communication media.
* Executive Order 10997 allows the government to take over all electrical power, gas, petroleum, fuels, and minerals.
* Executive Order 11000 allows the government to mobilize civilians into work brigades under government supervision.
* Executive Order 11001 allows the government to take over all health education and welfare functions.
* Executive Order 11002 designates the Postmaster General to operate a national registration of all persons.
* Executive Order 11003 allows the government to take over all airports and aircraft, including commercial aircraft.
* Executive Order 11004 allows the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate and establish new locations for populations.
* Executive Order 11005 allows the government to take over railroads, inland waterways, and public storage facilities.
* Executive Order 11049 assigns emergency preparedness function to federal departments and agencies, consolidating 21 operative Executive Orders issued over a fifteen-year period.
* Executive Order 11051 specifies the responsibility of the Office of Emergency Planning and gives authorization to put all Executive Orders into effect in times of increased international tensions and economic or financial crisis.
* Executive Order 11310 grants authority to the Department of Justice (NOTE: that's Fast and Furious Eric Holder!) to enforce the plans set out in Executive Orders, to institute Industrial support, to establish judicial and legislative liaison, to control all aliens, to operate penal and correctional institutions, and to advise and assist the President.
* Executive Order 11921 allows the Federam Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to establish control over the mechanisms of production and distribution of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit, and the flow of money in U.S. financial institutions in any undefined national emergency. It also provides that when the president declares a state of emergency.Congress cannot review the action for six months.
It is more than clear that Obama is planning for the total control and takeover of America via Martial Law. Food, energy, transportation, work, banking, and health: he has it covered.
While Obama is busy pulling executive orders out of the sky to control everything inside our country, he has been issuing executive orders to force us to submit to international regulations instead of our Constitution.
Sher Zieve exposed this in one of her recent articles. Damn the U.S. Constitution, damn the American people and damn U.S. sovereignty.
Gosh! Did you get that cut-and-paste from NobodyGivesa@!$%#.com? It sure looks like it came from there.
no it came from you libs on the federal register. Looks like there may be a place for you after all
in other words sailpuke it came from your king
Lol those orders are bull@!$%#. Feds have already had most of the powers you listed (google imminent domain). Feds can seize control of FEDERAL highways? You don't say!
Loose interpretations at best.
Careful, now. IPCMFG's lower lip is quivering. He's going to break down any minute...!
Daddy had boundary issues no doubt.
@ Sailcat haha my old name applies to this one i guess! But really? None of those orders concern you? You dont care at all that the government can take away pretty much ALL of your freedoms on a whim? I hope they do, just for you, so you can restate that comment then
Since WWII, the government has reserved the powers to declare martial law and there is nothing new contained in those orders. The right wing lunatic fringe is just banging an old, busted drum.
And that cut-and-paste definitely came from NobodyGivesa@!$%#.com. It's meaningless and irrelevant and the American people doesn't care about it. I mean, damn.
Sailcat, you can't argue with fools whose minds are fed by constant bombardment of Faux News Spews, Lush Rimballs and Glen Beckon. They just can't comprehend independent research by using Google. Pathetically sad but true... the neo-cons do make zombies out of them. And we're not allowed to put them out of their misery. But on the upswing, the cries of a belly-aching neo-con is always music to a progressive's ears!
10 of the top 10 poorest states are RED.
Funny how Mitt doesn't even know that the 47% he claims won't vote for him make up a majority of his electoral votes.
Looks like DEMS are on their way to a sweep, house/senate majority and presidency. Looks like the next 4 years @!$%# will finally get done.
Maybe Robme should stop listening to Rush, and run his own campaign.
Either way, Obama FTW!
Obama 2012. Because people know a winner when they see one.
Shaun - we can only hope! But, I think we'll keep the Senate (with a larger majority); keep the White House; and take back some of the House. Don't know that we can actually get the majority in the House. It may take until the mid-term elections to do that. I think people will get so tired of the Republicans blocking progress they'll kick them to the curb then!
Obama/Biden 2012
SeekingSanity...I believe you are right. I feel confident that we will get the senate we need to move things forward, the house remains a cesspool of ignorance but I can see that changing, likely see it happen by mid term elections.
My fondest dream is a majority in both the house and senate.
I do want to give those red states something to consider...as they are so set against redistribution, I propose a law be enacted that limits a state to receive only what they put in. Wonder how those red states could remain red for long. Blue has always been my favorite color anyway. Red represents a fire that Jack Black has to put out with his "fire hose" (from the Gulliver movie).
you should be seeking insanity. the red side is not against helping. The problem is helping those that won't help themselves. your fondest dream was a nightmare when you had both the house and senate. you had scary reid stopping anything he did not get paid for and pigface pelosi lying in the aisle
if the people knew a winner hussein would still be working for acorn
Thinking about red states versus blue states.The R.W.N.J. used to call all of the Liberal Democrats a bunch of Reds! Now Romney is calling the states that are the most dependant on Government Welfare, scroungers and non-producers.That is also the Red States. Are the New Right Wing Republican/Tea Party considering attempting to try to trade off their states for our Democratic ones?
RWNJ's keep your dirty hands off my state!
Funny how republican sites like fox and drudge show romney ahead, while lib ones show Obama ahead. The bigger news will be the Congressional elections. Unless there is a huge turnover in the House, even if Obama wins it will just be another 2 years of what we've had the last two years...absolutely nothing.
let the dems win 15 or 20 seats and suddendly the hand writing is on the wall and just how willing will they be to continue being the party of NO
You sure about that?
You haven't actually BEEN to Fox News today then.. them "liberals at fox" seem to say something different.
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/09/19/obama-has-edge-over-romney-in-three-battleground-states/
Pubby, its hilarious, so many people come on here and post Rasmussen shows ROMENY ahead too!!! They are completely SHOCKED that Robme is not ahead.
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows President Obama attracting support from 47% of voters nationwide, while Mitt Romney earns 45% of the vote. Three percent (3%) prefer some other candidate, and four percent (4%) are undecided. See daily tracking history.
Ummm.....Fox has Obama up 5 over Romney, and Rasmussen has Obama up 2 today.....but go ahead and spin away.
Funny how republican sites like fox and drudge show romney ahead, while lib ones show Obama ahead.
Both Fox and The Wall Street Journal have Obama up by 5%. Rasmussen has him up by 2%. The Romney ship is sinking and conservatives know it.
That's right Charlie... but the Lush Rimballs parrots will all still deny reality... up until Nov 7 that is! Just read the post below mine by Jonathan Collins, if you need an example. lol
What they forgot to tell you is the fact that Chris Matthews was the person counting the votes. Ed Schultz verified it. Mind you, of the first 100 calls, whenever someone identified themselves as a Republican supporter, Chris forgot to count the first 50 Republican supporters. Also, as Matthews felt it was just, he automaticcally gave 45% of the vote to Obama because he felt it was the right thing to do. If you believe the polls, you're delusional. You can hide the facts that there was no security for the US ambassador that was murdered last week. You can hide the fact that it was an al Qaeda mission. You can make up the numbers all you want. But in the end America will not reelect Barrack HUSSEIN Obama. To you Obama supporters, we here in Canada want to thank you for helping our dollar increase 35% in value compared to yours since ObamaNation came to be. Enjoy your food stamps America. You're always welcome to come to Canada to HOPE for some spare CHANGE. What a clueless bunch.
didnt you guys devalue the canadian dollar a couple of years back. So your up 35% of what?
Jonathan ...F%*K Canada, a failed French Colony at best.
thats waht hussein is doing to america
What a goof Jonathan! Like myself most Canadians prefer Obama to Revolving-Door Mitt. Yeah! Eh!
If you are a Canadian you have no say.
I highly doubt you are Canuck Jonathan, as I have many friends who really are... all across Canada. And NONE of them would say anything nearly as stupid as you just did. Good luck with the lies pal... maybe you can convince your tea-bagging friends and relatives you are from the Great White North. lol
freebies freebies I want my freebies..... Vote Obama 2012...
You repukes are real clowns when companies fire people and send the jobs overseas in the name profits, you repukes blame the unions and call the people lazy because they haven't found a job fast enough. So un-American
Well maybe if the liberal work force were hard working, maybe Co wouldn't have to go out of the country. Blame your selves. Big Co's gave and gave and got nothing in return from the loser libs who don't want to pay their dues. Pooper scooper jobs are ready for you. Loser
go wait by the mailbox and the rest of the workers will figure out how to pay you
metoo and lee should probably study how the German people were turned against the Jews in the 1930's and then understand exactly what Karl Rove and Fox have done to you. I will say it - you are both acting like thoughtless nazis.
How can you be so dumb? How can you spit in the faces of the brave American's that died protecting us from the bigotry and fascism that you now promote?
Shame on you.
Americans are the most profficent workers in the world.
We just tend to want more than 1 dollar an hour for our time. Chinese goods are not worth the near worthless materials they are crafted from. It is a vicious cycle of our pay not rising, coupled with outsourcing, forcing us to have to buy the cheap chinese @!$%# because we can't afford better long lasting American stuff. After 2 uses it breaks and we need a new one. Thus the demand for cheap crap continues to grow.
But those top CEO's still get paid insane amounts. No doubt they worked harder for it than the millions beneath them who collectively earn less than the one guy at top.
Republicans want to doubledown on giving more power to the corporations, more tax cuts, more civil liberties. Here's what one historical character had to say about that...
"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of
state and corporate power." - Benito Mussolini.
flip flop tic toc
time is running out on Romney. He is a good debater but I am afraid the 47% comment sealed his biography with the public. As long as Obama doesnt pull a Ford in the debates the party is over, lets turn out the lights.
if only lying ryan gets defeated for his seat.....
you need a cyanide what he said before you dems twisted it is true. take you welfare people and move them to california. Land of the welfare receipient
How is IPCMFG pronounced? Are you from another planet?
yes Robert... I happen to know IPCMFG is a citizen of the Assholian planet and race, they only have one color people... they're all red in the face
Pawlenty was smart....jump from this stinking, sinking ship called the Romney campaign for presdent!!
Daniel - you really need to get out more!
Obama/Biden 2012
LOL... Some people need to tell themselves lies so they can sleep at night. Like GOP party itself.
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows President Obama attracting support from 47% of voters nationwide, while Mitt Romney earns 45% of the vote. Three percent (3%) prefer some other candidate, and four percent (4%) are undecided. See daily tracking history.
It's a good PR stunt trying to keep the base motivated but it's not going to work Mitt has a foot in mouth problem that he can't seem to overcome
When you've got nothing, always post the rantings of some unknown, fringe blogger who has an audience of 6 other wingnut shut-ins and rely on Rasmussen to salve your wounds. Are those Fox and WSJ polls favoring Democrats too?
More Good News
From the article above:
I think the Governor mis-spoke at his luncheon.
It's not 47 percent, it's 50%, and that is what President Obama is getting consistantly now.
Very good news at this point.
Salud
good news for them bad news for america
It's great news for America! It's just bad news for the right wing lunatic fringe.
Wow, great news for America Sailcat -(# in prison) and great news for the wealthy Saudi interests who chose, groomed and bankrolled Obama. Check it out my boy. Why shouldn't they get what they paid for and since they also are heavily invested in FOX and the Right Wing they win no matter what. But you're screwed whether it goes right or left. You're screwed top and bottom. You're just plain screwed and they have you dizzy, daffy and screaming for more.
Hey John! Since it appears the cesspool backed up into the gene pool in your family tree, it is no surprise your lack the cognitive abilities to tell the truth or to recognize it when you see it. Consequently, your pointless and incoherent post exists only to embarrass you, your ex-wife, and the children who you can't visit because of the restraining order.
Fail.
I would be more impressed with Daniel's cut and paste efforts,as he desperately tries to find a poll,ANY poll,that meets his standards (i.e.,said poll favors Romney...) if ...
A: ...it weren't for the fact that,with tonight being September the 20,Daniel the Dullard posted (in post #1.14) that there are 55 days left until the election,once again proving that Tea Baggers are so fundamentally stupid that they can't even work a calendar,nor do basic arithmetic.
B:...if it weren't for the fact that the Rasmussen poll,which Tea Baggers and Cons love to quote,also has THESE numbers...
Florida--Rasmussen poll on 9/12: Obama 48% Romney 46%
Ohio--Rasmussen poll on 9/12: Obama 47% Romney 46%
Wisconsin--Rasmussen poll on 9/12: Obama 49% Romney 46%
It seems like when a right leaning polling outfit like Rasmussen has polling data that doesn't fit into poor lil' Daniel's tender head it just doesn't count for much. Or didn't happen.
Myself---I'm not too big on polls. The only one that counts comes on November 6th.
When Romney gets his ass completely and thoroughly kicked in THAT set of polls all of you on the Right and in Bagger Nation can feel free to come in here and bitch,piss and moan about those polls being over-sampled as well.
It's about all you sorry people will have left at that point after all.
Reagan had pulled ahead of Carter by June and had a 15-point lead until the gap narrowed after the Democratic convention in August. But Carter never led after June.
Daniel, how could your lies be true whenever the latest polling data from ALL of the polls show Obama ahead by 2+, all the way up to 8+ points? Try reading before spewing your ilk pal:
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/us/general_election_romney_vs_obama-1171.html
besides, you probably don't know more than 3 or so other tea-baggers to ask anything of. People tend to shy away from folks like you. Lies and rumors don't appeal to most of us. Even Rasmussen the self professed conservative poll who likes to boast they predicted a Bush win in 04 over Kerry knows that Mittsy is toast. And you don't even want to know what the predictions for the Electoral College vote is... it will totally ruin your day Danny boy!
People realize that last century was all America! Everything we have now (cept for FB!) was created last century under tax rates much higher than they are now. All the wealth created last century under a higher tax rate! All the millionaires and Billionaires created under a higher tax system!
OMG! How did we ever survive! America became a Super Power under higher taxation. America created the largest middle class under a higher tax system. It was only when Reagan started lowering taxes on the rich that the middle class began to suffer.
Obama's gonna fix dat!
Obama 2012/Romney 1040
True. And lets look at the last century from a military standpoint. It took 2 Democratic presidents to win WW1 and WWII. It took a Republican one to give up on Korea, another to lose Vietnam, and stretching into this century two more to fail to win in Iraq. Republicans claim to be pro military. They are just pro military spending. And incompetent CIC's to boot.
If you're expecting Obama to save the middle class your chances of that happening are no better than the Chinese renouncing rice, the French giving up wine and Biden taking the top prize on American Idol.
Breaking News! Chinese have given up importing arsenic laced rice from America!
Tag, rewriting history doesn't do Democrats any favors. The United States barely had a presence in WWI, and contemporary scholarship casts doubt on how decisive it was. In WWII, American troops clearly prevailed in the Pacific Theater, but it was the Russians who did most of the fighting and dying in Europe. Korea had become a stalemate and was as unpopular domestically as Vietnam would be ten years later. Eisenhower simply responded to the lack of support for the war. Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon escalated the war in Vietnam, but the corruption of the various South Vietnamese regimes made it a doomed enterprise from the start.
And he will win. No doubt.
On election night when the Kenyan Kalamity is sent to join Carter and Dinkins in leftist loser heaven Sharpton, Maddow, Mathews, Schultz and the rest of the methane spewing talking heads will explode on national TV just like in the movie Scanners and reach 6.5 on the Richter scale.
Speaking of Sharpton, where was he when the Black kid was murdered execution style by a illegal???????? I guess he didn't look like Oblamos son if he had one.
Is this your best u seem to be a reflection of that clown your supporting
Keep drinking that Bagger Kool-Aide, leftsux... Just make sure that on election night, you're wearing a thick plastic bag around your head, because after Obama wins and YOUR head explodes from getting hit with the reality hammer, it will be so much easier for someone to put a tie wrap on that ol' bag and dump those litle brain chunks away... OOHHH!!! "Fuggetaboutit"
I agree with ya Fugget, except for the part about brain chunks... Leftsux would have to have one for the bag to catch em!
NBC never gives up with the liberal bias, jeez.
FOX has Obama widening his lead.
Another republican complaining reality has a liberal bias. Imagine that...
FOX has Obama widening his lead.
Imagine that... Faux News actually reporting the truth for a change. Ehh, give'm time, they'll find some way to skew the poll so as not to raise the Bagger's blood pressure with reality... "Fuggetaboutit"
