WAUKESHA, WI – Paul Ryan played up his Badger State roots in suburban Milwaukee on Monday, hoping to add Wisconsin to the Republican column in a presidential election for the first time since 1984.
Speaking at a town hall with just 22 days before the election, the Republican vice presidential nominee encouraged the crowd to vote early, which voters can do beginning in a week, on Oct. 22.
“Let’s not forget, early voting starts pretty soon, so you can vote early, you can vote early absentee so that you can make sure we work on making phone calls and getting people to the polls because you know what we learned here in Wisconsin?” the seven-term Wisconsin congressman said before the roughly 1,300 people at the event. “We learned that if you’d say to people here’s who I am, this is what I believe in, and this is what I'm going to do, in Wisconsin we elect them and then they go do it and that’s exactly what we’re going to do for the United States of America we’re going to take on these challenges in this country.”
Wisconsin -- which is considered a battleground state by NBC News -- has 10 electoral votes to award in the upcoming election and both Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama’s campaigns are putting an emphasis here. The latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist poll showed Obama leading Romney in the state, 50 percent to 45 percent.
”Let’s make sure that we win Wisconsin. Let’s get out to the polls. Let’s get people there. We are on a winning streak here in Wisconsin. Let’s keep that winning streak going,” Ryan, joined by both of his brothers sitting beside him, said at Carroll University.
Though Wisconsin is generally seen as more sympathetic to Democrats in presidential contests, Republicans have made significant inroads here in recent year thanks to Ryan, the chairman of the House Budget Committee, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus, a native of the state, and Gov. Scott Walker, who survived a recall election after curbing public workers' collective bargaining rights.
While Walker joined Ryan here today, both Walker and Priebus appeared with Ryan at a fundraiser for former governor and current U.S. Senate candidate, Tommy Thompson, Sunday afternoon in Milwaukee.
“I think it is wonderful that Wisconsin has become the epicenter of politics – Republican politics -- we are on a role ladies and gentlemen. And these three champions back here are the current and the future leaders of the Republican Party,” Thompson -- who is running in a tight race with Democratic Rep. Tammy Baldwin -- said at the Harley Davidson Museum as he motioned towards Ryan, Walker, and Priebus.
Ryan's Wisconsin roots were on full display early Monday morning as he gave a shout out to his favorite football team during his ninth public event in the state.
“Nothing better than going to bed with 6 TDs under Aaron Rodgers’s belt, huh? That was an awesome game, I got to tell you to go down to Texas against a 5-0 team on the road and have that kind of performance it reminds me of what it's going to look like on November the 6th,” he said, noting the Packers tie he was wearing.
The VP nominee heads to Ohio, another crucial state, this afternoon where he will hold a rally in Cincinnati.

Talk is cheap paulie. You can't polish a turd anyway you rub it! Look at Rmoney his fingers they are dirty from trying to polish it!

Nice words.....don't mean anything, of course, but they sound nice.
Hey, here's an idea - try giving this speech to Mitt Romney, Congressman. Maybe he'll listen to YOU when you ask what he really believes in and the details of what exactly he's going to do when he gets elected.
'Cause he sure isn't telling anyone else....
Was that before or after Tommy's sons comments yesterday?
Appears the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!
Ryan says to vote early.
Meanwhile, the Republican Party is doing everything in their power to stop early voting across our country.
Jason Thompson---another profile in courage and ethics. Did he learn those values from his dad?
LYIn Ryan you got run out of a town by Seniors with their canes in Wisconsin. You had to take a cab.

Obama/Biden 2012
You know what's sad Steeler Fan, Jason didn't have the balls to apologize himself, instead opting to allow Daddy to do it for him!
Not that their apologies are worth the paper their printed on...
Romney and Ryan keep mentioning their 20% Tax Cut "from the Top Down" "beginning with the highest earners", i.e., the rich, and they keep mentioning their intent to cut any and all programs that they would NOT borrow money from China to keep, because they want to be sure people understand that voting for them would be a referendum on giving to the rich and taking from the poor.
Unfortunately, Republican Voters are NOT known for listening, and tend to make up their own story in their own minds and ignoring what their political figures keep telling them. ("Oh no, Republicans are not going to do that!")
Oh yes Republicans would do that!
Vote a Straight Democrat Ticket this November and give the President the tools he needs to get the job done!
Obama/Biden 2012
Really? So about those tax breaks...
Republican party voting scams abound:
"the national Tea Party group True the Vote has mobilized a large army of volunteers to go to the polls all over the country to harass voters. True the Vote tested out their voter intimidation skills during Gov. Scott Walker's (R-WI) recall election in June, when poll watchers blocked students and African Americans from voting."

TIME TO VOTE THE G.O.P. VOTER SUPPRESSION PARTY OUT OF OFFICE.
I see the Liberal crap is being spewn by the usual suspects. You guys need a real job.
Feisty, the 'GOP 'consequences' threats & scams are just the tip of the iceberg:
"Koch Industries sent 45,000 mailers to employees at Koch subsidiary Georgia Pacific, urging votes for Romney and other conservative candidates. The letter warns ominously of "consequences" for the workers if Republicans lose."
http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2012/10/15/1010581/koch-employee-votes/
Vote the anti-democratic GOP voter suppression party OUT.
Backhouse,
Nice to know the Koch suckers don't mind playing the "Fear Factor"!
Their father was famous for this kind of @!$%#!
I can't take credit for this, but it's worth repeating:
Reince Priebus= RNC PR BS
As for Ryan, after seven terms in the the do-nothing congress, it's time to throw that bum out!
In just 22 days, he and Romney can retire from politics. Good riddance!

FACT CHECK: Romney spins one-sided story on trade, defense cuts in foreign policy speech
Published
October 08, 2012
Associated Press
WASHINGTON – Mitt Romney solely blamed President Barack Obama on Monday for potential defense cuts that Republicans in Congress worked out with the White House and Democrats and left the misimpression that Obama has ignored free trade initiatives.
A closer look at some of the Republican presidential nominee's statements in his foreign policy speech:
ROMNEY: "I will roll back President Obama's deep and arbitrary cuts to our national defense that would
devastate our military."
THE FACTS: "Arbitrary" defense cuts do not belong to Obama alone but also to congressional Republicans,
including his vice presidential running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan. The first round
of cuts in projected defense spending is the result of a bipartisan deal in
August 2011 between Congress and the White House to wrestle down the deficit.
Unless a new budget deal is reached in time, additional spending cuts will
begin in January across government, and the cost to the Pentagon would be $500
billion over a decade. Lawmakers are working to avoid that. Separately, Obama
wants to slow the growth of military spending, now that the war in Iraq is
ended and the war in Afghanistan is drawing to a close. The Pentagon's budget,
including war costs, is $670 billion this year, or about 18 percent of total
federal spending. Even setting aside the costs of the wars, military spending
has more than doubled since 2001.
At its heart, Romney's statement marks a disagreement with Obama over the proper level of military spending but also skips past a deficit-reduction deal that he recently criticized Republicans in
Congress for negotiating.
ROMNEY: "The president has not signed one new free trade agreement in the past four years. "
THE FACTS: Obama hasn't opened new trade negotiations, but he's completed some big ones, overcoming opposition from fellow Democrats to do so. After taking office, he revived a free-trade
deal with Colombia that had been negotiated by his Republican predecessor but
left to languish without congressional approval and sought similar progress
with South Korean and Panamanian free-trade pacts. The president delayed
submitting the three deals to Congress while he tried to placate Democrats who
opposed some of the terms, but finally submitted them in 2011, and Congress
approved them.
ROMNEY: "I will recommit America to the goal of a democratic, prosperous Palestinian state living side by side in peace and security with the Jewish state of Israel. On this vital issue, the
president has failed, and what should be a negotiation process has devolved
into a series of heated disputes at the United Nations. In this old conflict,
as in every challenge we face in the Middle East, only a new president will
bring the chance to begin anew."
THE FACTS: With this statement, Romney
has moved toward the balance enshrined in U.S. policy from one administration
to another on the question of Israelis and Palestinians and away from his
provocative remarks to a May fundraiser that recently came to light.
In those remarks, he said "the Palestinians have no interest whatsoever in establishing peace," ''the
pathway to peace is almost unthinkable to accomplish," Palestinians are
"committed to the destruction and elimination of Israel" and it would
be "the worst idea in the world" to put pressure on the Israelis to
give up something in hopes Palestinians would respond accordingly. Now he is appearing to put faith in a negotiation process he all but dismissed before.
ROMNEY: "As the dust settles, as the murdered (in the Libya consulate attack) are buried, Americans are asking how this happened, how the threats we face have grown so much worse, and what
this calls on America to do."
THE FACTS: It's unclear whether terrorism has gotten worse. There has been no incident even remotely comparable in scope or symbolic meaning to the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the
World Trade Center and the Pentagon. After a score of counterterrorist
successes, the Obama administration has been knocked back on its heels since
the attacks' 11th anniversary, when assailants stormed the U.S. consulate in
Benghazi, Libya, and killed a U.S. ambassador and three other Americans. There
has also been an uptick in attacks on American troops by supposedly friendly
Afghan forces. But many counterterrorist experts say al-Qaida has been
significantly weakened and the threats of global terrorism significantly better
countered over the last decade.
ROMNEY: "When we look at the Middle East today — with Iran closer than ever to nuclear weapons capability, with the conflict in Syria threating to destabilize the region, with violent
extremists on the march and with an American ambassador and three others dead
likely at the hands of al-Qaida affiliates — it is clear that the risk of
conflict in the region is higher now than when the president took office."
THE FACTS: Risk is always a matter of perception, so it doesn't fall easily into the realm of truth vs. fiction. But for the United States and the region, it's not clear that conflict has
increased in the last four years. Obama entered office in 2009 with the United
States still engaged in a conflict in Iraq. U.S. troops are no longer there.
And he came as Israel and Hamas just finished a three-week war. That was two
years after another war between Israel and an Iranian-backed force, in that
case, Hezbollah in Lebanon.
There has been no significant Israeli military conflict since Obama has come into office. That said, Syria's conflict has become the region's deadliest since the Iraq war. The U.S. has stayed out
of that conflict under Obama.

Maybe I'll get one of those 'real' jobs and terrorize my employees into voting for Romney. That's it, I'll take over my daddies company, dedicate all my resources to electing a GOPTP presidential candidate, and threaten my employees with their jobs if they don't vote my way. And while I'm at it, I will ship jobs overseas, while paying the remaining American workers a pittance salary.

I am reading about the Koch Bros. trying to intimidate voters into voting the way they want. How are they going to know how one votes? Where I live, and I presume it is this way nation wide, we have what is called a secret ballot. One goes ALONE into a voting booth and closes the curtain so others can't see and then marks his/her ballot. That ballot is then placed into an envelope or folder wherein it is then slid into the ballot box. In our precinct the ballot box reads the ballot and tampering with the reading or ballots is a felony. It would be foolish to try as the end result could be that they lose anyway. So I would lie to the Koch Bros and tell them I voted the way they want and then vote the way I want. This is still supposed to be a democracy although from what I have seen from the Tparty and the right wing extremist Fascist wannabes, I am begining to wonder.
His roots of driving the weeniemobile or his roots as collecting Social Security as a youngster? Either way, the voters of Wisconsin are going to reject him in both offices he is running for.
Actually, there seems to be some question (surprise, surprise!) as to the authenticity of his Wienermobile experience:
"It is mathematically more difficult to become the driver of the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile than it is to become President of the United States."
-- USA Today 1994
"A hearty hot dog hello to you, Congressman Ryan!
First, as a former Wienermobile driver aka Hotdogger, let me extend my sincere congratulations to you on your recent appointment.
Second, we need to chat. Over the last few days, it has been widely reported that you used to drive the world-famous Oscar Mayer Wienermobile, however, we both know that this is simply not true. You were merely a sales rep for Oscar Mayer, and you sweet-talked your way into driving this legendary hot dog on wheels (via your Oscar Mayer-employed aunt, I might add) for one lap around a parking lot. Now I realize that nepotism has worked for your running mate, but I think it is imperative that you set the record straight immediately for the American people and get the base to trust you asap."
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robin-gelfenbien/from-the-wienermobile-to-_b_1778608.html
I'd have cut and pasted some more, but I couldn't stop laughing at the part where she gives him some great advice about driving it to Canada so he could "beef up" his foreign policy credentials, and then advises him to "Wash The Wiener Weekly" and how she hopes to "ketchup" with him this fall at the 25th Annual reunion of the REAL Hotdoggers.
P.S. - I also read where Oscar Mayer now has two "Vienna-sausage-sized" little Wienermobiles in their fleet that were converted from Mini Coopers. If they're looking for drivers, I know a couple of guys who won't be doing anything after November 6th....
Yea that weeniemobile made him look like a weenie with ears.
Ok JoAnne - that is funny, and now you have me going back to his shaft tax. Seems those Vienna Sausages don't quite measure up. Now touch that one with a 10-foot pole : )
RedDev -
I....ummm....."bow" to your superior knowledge on.....ummm.....shaft taxes.
And I leave you with this image. Am I the only one thinking "overcompensation"?
http://www.mikehanback.com/blog/index.cfm/2012/2/21/Paul-Ryan-RWI-Bowhunter
Holy Crap - are those training wheels on that bow? Now there is a ticket, Ryan/Palin - the Hunter team. They could roll down the windows on Air Force One and take pot shots at the local wildlife.
Red, the wheels are pulleys that allow for an easier overall draw and ability to hold with high poundage compound bows. Very normal for bow hunters.
Yes Matthew, I got that, as well as understanding the photo op is meant to portrait Ryan as an expert at Archery AND is a true-blooded Patriotic American. Had he been wielding an AK-47, he would have made the NRA proud. The only marketing gimmick that might outdo this photo op is to have a NASCAR racing machine sporting a Washington portrait on the hood, a Lincoln portrait on the trunk, and the American Flag covering the roof.
See, and there I was thinking it corresponded to one of the only two of seventy-one bills he sponsored that got passed. The one reducing the excise tax on arrows. Or maybe he was preparing to shoot at the post office?
I have worked since I was 4 years old doing dishes, collecting and cleaning eggs, digging up potatoes, help can fruits and vegetables, etc on our family farm. From age 10 I babysit, mowed lawns and delivered newspapers to make money because my family was pretty poor. This was hard work, but it was necessary for my family to survive. My parents taught us good work ethics and don't blame someone else for your problems, just be grateful for what you have. These ethics are not being taught anymore, in fact it's blame someone else for your problems and make someone else take care of you. We have the Liberals to thank for all of this.
Well, it explains why you're lacking a basic education!
You're so-called parents should of been brought up on child abuse charges!
Feisty your such a douche-bag. She was talking about working around the house to help out...
Poor, pitiful Jersy 'Cinderella' Girl, never got that gold star pasted to her wee forehead for doing her daily chores. Why I almost had to choke back a sob or two as I was reminded how awfully hard I 'worked' during my childhood, doing those daily 'hard work' chores. I often ponder how I ever turned out to be a liberal, what with my sense of work ethic and dedication to completing all those chores forced upon me during my childhood. Perhaps my parents didn't beat me enough, perhaps they placed too much emphasis on education. We will never know the tipping point. Perhaps it was something that Jersy Girl parents forgot to teach her - that the world doesn't revolve around her poor selfish a$$. You see, my parents also taught me to respect the hard work and contributions of others. This seems to run contrary to the GOPTP mindset, where they believe they are the only ones that work and contribute. Jersy Girl, take that ethic and digest it for a bit - who knows, there may be help for you yet.
Sorry to ruin your 'liberals are lazy and evil' theory, Jersy Girl, but doing chores is hardly unusual. I did my share of housecleaning, yardwork, babysitting, ironing, and odd jobs in the neighborhood to make some extra money. My parents raised their children to be honest and self reliant.
They taught us manners, tolerance and consideration for others too.
Have a nice day.
Jersy Girl -
I have to admit I never collected eggs or dug up potatoes. But I rode my bike around construction sites collecting bottles to return for two-cent and five-cent deposits, walked miles selling Girl Scout cookies door to door when everyone else's parents were selling them to their co-workers, babysat and worked at a dog kennel from the time I was 11 or 12, along with cooking and doing laundry for a family of five at the same age. I worked my way through college to help my parents pay for it, and once I graduated, my parents expected me to pay room and board until I moved out and got my own place, which I did at age 24. I've been working in an office for over 43 years now, and have been self-supporting for 39 of those years, as well as being a landlord and maintaining a rental property for a number of tenants for the last 23 years. And yes, my parents also "taught us good work ethics and don't blame someone else for your problems, just be grateful for what you have".
My parents were liberals, so they also taught me that there's always someone less fortunate than you who deserves your help.
I have never once accused all conservatives of being wealthy 1%ers. So why do you feel compelled to stereotype all liberals the way you just did?
Jersy Girl
Aren't you special?
I worked from a young age cleaning, weeding in the garden, washing the car, windows, dishes, etc. I started my morning paper route at age 12 rising at 5am so people could get their news.
My kids did chores, learned entrepeneurial skills producing kid stuff for children's arts and craft day, and studied hard at school.
They are both liberal in their political beliefs and tolerant of diverse peoples. Both graduated from college and work hard in their successful science careers.
I believe most people will defend their own children just as I have. There is nothing in liberal values that undermines the value of hard work or respect for others. You assume your experience is special, but it is really quite common.
JoAnne, Going all the way back up to 2.1 .... GREAT POST! Made my afternoon!
Obama/Biden 2012
I mowed lawns and babysat as a kid. We had a lemonade stand in the summer that taught us how to handle money, to make change, make sales, and to restock with a profit. No we didn't get the lemonade mix free. We paid for it. Later I was a janitor and ran a surplus store for some people while they were away. I also was a maintenance person and window dresser for a bookstore. None of these jobs paid much but as a kid I understood that it wasn't about the money but how to use money and to share with others who had less than I had. We were lower middle class. My parents were never into Bible, chapter and verse stuff but they taught us to be generous with what we have. If we find a man without clothing offer him the shirt we have. If someone is hungry we offer them some of our food. We help them learn to fish so they can fish for themselves and we don't ignore them or expect others to do the dirty work for us. I was taught to be empathetic, understanding of the beliefs and needs of others and not be greedy. This teaching is why I am a liberal and proud of it. Why one is a conservative is their business and I respect their choice. No one is perfect, we all make mistakes. Being a conservative when one is poor or middle class is probably a mistake but as humans we sometimes make poor decisions and must live with them.
Ryan's trying to play to the people just isn't cutting it. My guess is he may be out of both jobs in November - both the VP job and Congressman. As he continues to lie on national television, his consituents are getting a better read on the man they've elected in the past - and not liking much of what they see!
Obama/Biden 2012
The only thing you pathetic people can do is criticize and ridicule the people who actually have a plan and ideas on how to get this economy moving. You ridicule their backgrounds and anything you can to pick them apart. Meanwhile our President is covering up what really happened with the deaths of four Americans and you sit idly on your arms and say nothing. It was a terrorist attack and the State Department didn't provide enough security and it had nothing to do with passing a bill to provide more money. Also the State Department has had a 100%+ increase in their budget over the last five years. Americans are struggling, but they have gotten their pay raises.
Were you looking in the mirror when you said that? ;)
JerseyGirl
So the well-informed people who defend Obama are pathetic in your opinion. Yet, the ones such as yourself who attack him with false claims such as a Libyan coverup are what exactly? Patriots? really?
I would really like to know your news source. Your anti-liberal bias really has no basis in reality. So-called conservative Presidents have run up our national debt (Reagan, Bush I, Bush II) and started unnecessary wars (Bush II).
So-called liberal Presidents have balanced the budget (Clinton) and ended wars (OBAMA).
It is so easy to label some people as pathetic. I think you are very biased and live in a world you cannot understand, but I wouldn't call you pathetic.
I must also say that initial reports out of Benghazi detailed a demonstration that turned violent (Reuters 9-12-12 "In Libya, deadly fury took US envoys by surprise"). Funding cuts of $300 million in 2012 for State Dept security forced State to do security cutbacks worldwide. Many American security personnel were replaced by cheaper local security. This was the case in Libya.
The FBI is undertaking a thorough investigation about Benghazi consulate attacks. This FBI investigation might not fit your desired timeline as you seek to portray this as a coverup for your own political purposes.
Four Americans are dead as result of terrorist attack and people such as you seek only to exploit their deaths. How sad.
Ironic that Ryan forgets Gov Walker's slogan was Forward not Backward. (Same as President Obama's).
Ryan also forgets that Gov Walker also said the economy in Wisconsin is doing much better.
Hey Screech! I mean Ryan, how hard is it to wake up every morning and lie to the American people?
You talk the talk.. But you cant walk the walk..
I thought you where a christian? You know that liars go to hell for lying!!!

Probably less difficult than Obama and his administration. They have a hard time keeping all their stories straight and remembering which lies they have told.

One last thing, why did the Republican Party said NO to all 32 bills that would make American jobs?
Romney selling more Americans jobs oversea every year. The kid (Ryan) would Love to get his hands on the $6.868 trillion in the social security.
Go on you tube and you will him in congress talking about it. All can say is, Romney you and the kid are two face un-American LOW LIFES!
This is to all real American people. Go to open government or open congress and you can see for yourself. You can also go to Ryan vote records. Go on You Tube: Romney's Bain Selling Out American Workers to China.

Obama 4 MORE YEARS
Why hasn't Obama released his college transcripts? Maybe that's because he went to school as a foreign student.
Mitt Romney is a robot. He does not have a birth certificate.
Why hasn't Romney released his college transcripts? Or more importantly, his TAX RETURNS? That's an issue that matters.
Obama didn't go to college as a foreign student, silly. He is an American citizen who graduated from an American high school (Punahou School in Honolulu), so why are you making up such a ridiculous story?
Maybe because it isn't any of your damn business.
Jersy Girl -
Enough already! You and half the conservatives on here have been trying to push this story for the last four years. You obviously have all the "proof" that you need that it's true, so why not just share it with everyone else? And while you're at it, why not ask yourself why it's only birthers and uninformed bloggers who keep making this claim. If there was even a shred of truth to this story, don't you think the Romney campaign and all their money would have unearthed it by now? Wouldn't they be making a campaign issue out of it? Wouldn't Columbia and Harvard want their respective names cleared? Why don't even other regular conservative posters here ever even bring it up?
Do you get ALL your "facts" from chain e-mails, or do you ever do any actual research?
http://factcheck.org/2009/05/was-obama-born-in-the-usa/
I take issue with you about the uninformed bloggers comment. They are informed!!!!!! by Rush Limboooooooo, FOX News and Donald Trump.
Feisty--it was probably one of those "non-apology apologies"---you know---I am sorry if my words offended anyone." As if that counts.
Biden says something not so flattering and it is just "Joe being Joe".
Obama flips on a for/against and it is just the president evolving.
Anyone in the GOP does the same, you would think the world was coming to an end.
Okay, got the rules down let the games continue.
The Liberals always show their true personalities, nasty and mean.
*gasp* You're a liberal??
Remind us again which party cheers and yells 'let 'em die' when it comes to the uninsured. Remind us again which party of nasty, mean, and vile folks openly Boo an active member of the military. It sure wasn't the party of liberals.
when most people flip, they stay flipped. Romney just goes back and fourth depending on which the wind blows.
Really? He's in a soup kitchen? Wouldn't that be part of the 47% that Romney spoke of? And what has he done for his home? they don't want more Teachers, Police, or Fireman (Romney's words) and here is what Romney does with US jobs
http://www.examiner.com/article/mitt-romney-s-bain-capital-outsourcing-illinois-jobs-freeport-to-china
That would be the 47% of Americans that are going to vote Democrat no matter what. They can't be swayed...
Many people can't be swayed by Romney's lies or by Fox 'news'...and for that, you should be eternally thankful.
Wisconsin has the double honor of not voting for Ryan as vice president and as a member of congress this year. Then he can go home and kick out his mother.
Hey Milwaukee! Ask little "Richie Rich" Ryan about his views of what his 'boss' is now doing in Freeport Illinois? Ask "Richie Rich" Ryan about his pathological lying over his tax plan, his economic plan, and his history of outsourcing of American Jobs. Hey! Hey! Ho! Ho! The Party of NO has got to GO!

Paul Vaginal Probe Ryan got into trouble today for crashing dinner at a homeless shelter uninvited and mugging for the cameras by pretending to wash an already clean pan.
Ryan tells it like it is, in the face of the seniors. Parallel lives: Paul Martin, Minister of National Health and Welfare from 1946 to 1957, played a central early role in the adoption of hospital insurance and is also remembered as the father of Medicare. National hero in Canada. Paul Ryan, the infamous killer of US Medicare
We should be more proactive on this vine, and discuss our beloved President Romney's agenda for the first of his glorious EIGHT YEARS in office.
Libbies will be pushed to the sidelines for at least a decade. They will probably forget why they were so liberal in the first place. Some will have passed away by the time another Democrat becomes President. LOL
jo e parent You said that about newt. you were wrong than and will be wrong soon enough. LMFAO!!!!!
Joe, I think electing a RINO will result in a Democrat landslide in 4 years.
So, my guess is that rightwingers lost this election in April, no matter who wins next month.
Trying to be Democrat-lite isn't going to lead to any permanent majorities or even long rightwing terms in control of DC. Bragging about how we're going to keep the Democrats' garbage, failed programs afloat won't inspire anybody or convince anyone who likes these programs to choose us over the Democrats who created them....they can always spend more.
What we're actually stuck with is someone less conservative than we had in 2000 and 2004, when the GOP was running up huge deficits.
Don't want to rain on the parade. We have to clean out the GOP establishment scum so that we never get another RINO as our candidate ever again, though.
Like Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., Obama's dad, George Romney , Mitt Romney's dad, is not a natural born American. George Wilcken Romney (July 8, 1907 – July 26, 1995) was a born in Mexico.
Mitt Romney was born when his parents was living in the Mormon colonies in Mexico; events during the Mexican Revolution forced his family to flee back to the United States when he was a child. So Mitt Romney wasn't even born in the US.
Obama/ Biden 2012
Lol, listen to this Democrat idiot. "events during the Mexican Revolution forced [Mitt's] family to flee to the US when he was a child"
So, you do know that Mitt is like 60 right? You think the Mexican Revolution happened in the 1950's? Hhahahahahahhaha.
Before you vote, go to factcheck.org a neutral site run by the Annenberg Society if you want the truth, or you can base you knowledge on what you read on newsvine with everyone throwing out facts they've made up in their mind.
For the good of America, educate yourself before you vote.
Yah Ryan! We're gonna keep the Repub winning streak in blue Wisconsin going and take your home state from the Demoncats!
No Humiliation like AlBore suffered in 2000 when he lost his home state Tennessee.
Wisconsin is the insurance policy in case BHO barely wins Ohio.
In case you were confused about the "MATH" part, here is a refresher:
47% = 100%
Sincerely,
Gov. Romeny
