Subscribe to RSSDOSWELL, VA -- Once again throttling back on his most vociferous attacks on President Barack Obama, Mitt Romney continued his effort to paint the president as a partisan without a plan, and pledged to work across the aisle with Democrats if elected president in his second event of a three-stop Virginia campaign day.

Republican presidential candidate, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney greets supporters at a campaign stop at Meadow Event Park, in Richmond, Va., Thursday, Nov. 1, 2012.
"I'm going to meet regularly with Democrat leaders and Republican leaders. I won't do that once a year, when I say regularly I mean much more frequently than that, because we're going to have to work together," Romney pledged. "These are critical times. This is an election of consequence."
Democrats immediately seized on the irony of Romney delivering these remarks while standing next to House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., whom Democrats have long accused of using his power in the House to act as one of the "chief architects" of GOP obstruction to President Obama's agenda.
“For the sole purpose of political gain, congressman Cantor and Republicans in Congress, like Romney’s running mate congressman Ryan, have blocked efforts to achieve a balanced deficit reduction deal and to pass legislation to create jobs now," read a statement from Obama campaign spokeswoman Lis Smith. "The American people need someone who will move us forward, not just serve as a rubber stamp for the right wing.”
Romney, who has dialed down his criticisms of President Obama in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, and as the campaigns move into the closing argument phase, continued to ding the president for what he said was a lack of an agenda and a campaign based upon attacks alone.
GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney hits the campaign trail in Roanoke, Virginia criticizing President Obama's economic and energy policies.
"For a while there he was talking about saving characters on Sesame Street, and then it was word games with my name that he was playing, and then of course he got very anxious and went out there and just attacked me day in and day out," Romney said. "Attacking me does not create an agenda for him."
Romney makes one more appearance in Virginia today: a rally in Virginia Beach that was originally planned for Sunday night, but had to be rescheduled due to the approach of Hurricane Sandy.

Time to rise up and vote out the radical right wing cracked teapots and their oil, insurance and defense contractor owners. At least the people saw the light and realized how idiotic "Juiced Up" Sharron Angle and The Flying Witch Christine O'Donnell, Joe Smith from Alaska and several others were and did not vote them in. Hopefully, people saw what the real helicopter gunship pilot Sarah Palin is and will never allow her to hold any public office. The idiots who voted for these nutcases did not learn from Bush Bin Lyin and his criminal gang what the republicans are really about. They outed two CIA agents, who wanted to tell the truth that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Bush Bin Lyin's bosses the oil companies and defense contractors got wealthy as our society was being brought down. These guys destroyed Iraq and then had to rebuild it using tax payer dollars. At least they got Delay. Scooter Libby was the fall guy for the CIA agents outing. Don't forget the criminal gang's trickle down economics where the money trickled down into their bosses pockets instead of creating jobs. That is why we were losing over 700,000 jobs a month before Obama took over.
All pathetic, psychotic, braindead right wing radical cracked teanut dopes should listen to your leaders. They warned you about the Mexican Mormon Moron tax evading draft dodger during the primaries when they were able to tell he truth about this moron.
Lyin Willardo, the Mexican Mormon Moron tax evader, bankrupter, draft dodger, job outsourcer and Etch A Sketch Champion may have vision of going back home to Mexico.
All braindead pathetic right wing radical cracked teanuts should listen to your leaders.
Rick the Dick Santarium has brainwashed his followers, the evangelicals and the gay rapist, pedophile catholic priests that lyin' Willardo is a member of an evil cult and is the anti-christ. He also told them that lyin Willardo is the worst person in history to ever run for the presidency, can't be trusted and will destroy our country. Groper Nutquist, the boss of the right wing cracked teanuts and Nut Gingerhead, the criminal lobbyist, totally agreed with the last three assessments.
So most of the evangelical sheep will probably stay home on election day or some may even vote for Obama. They are totally scared to death of lyin Willardo, the Mexican Mormon Moron tax evader, bankrupter, job outsourcer, draft dodger and Etch A Sketch champion.
If this repuke draft dodger ever became president, and war broke out in the middle east, he will be putting his dog on the top of his car and fleeing to his birthplace in Tijuana and hide in one of his 4 grandmammy's (pappy's side only) outhouses.
These and other truths were approved by the Republican
SyndicateParty.Mr. Romney had a majority of democratics to work with in Massachusettes. Mr. Romney was able to talk to Democrats, but most important he was able to get things done and in a bipartisan way. Obama talks bipartisan but he wants its his way or no way at all--Republicans have tried to work with him; and Obama had 2 years of a majority of Democrats in the House and the Senate and he got nothing done--means he can't even work with his own party when they own the House and Senate. Sad.
Mr. Romney--I am looking forward to November 6 when you can begin the countdown to removing this incompetent man out of our White House.
This must be why Massachusettes is going almost 2 to 1 in favor of Obama
800 vetoes, 700 veto overrides, and the people of Massachusetts are voting for Obama by 15-30 percentage points.
Even Reagan carried California twice.
It is truly amazing that any repuke dunce can be so braindead as to believe that slapped ass lyin Willardo, the Mexican Mormon Moron tax evading draft dodger has any plan to save our country. He should have said he was going to create 50 million jobs and have everyone working in his first 4 years. The dumb sheep that believe him without any plan to do so, except lower taxes on his criminal corporate masters, is a joke.
His campaign manager called him an Etch A Sketch player. He changes his lies daily, depending on which group he speaks to.
Bipartisanship? Obviously he hasn't cleared that with McConnell and Boehner.
Even lyin Willardo's Mexican daddy knew what he would be like when he grew up So he gave him his first name "Willardo" after the large movie rat. He gave him his middle name after an old baseball glove that they found in the family outhouse that was full of shxt. They shortened lyin Willardo's first name to Willard and their last name from Robberos to Romney when they smuggled little lyin Willardo over here from his birthplace in Tijuana.
He is now known by most people as Mitt Robme.
It is amazing how these right wing nuts believe that lyin Willardo, in any way is going to do anything but destroy our country again. He is going to eliminate regulations so that his corporate criminal masters can rob and steal from us once again as they did under Bush Bin Lyin and his criminal gang led by President Cheney.
Romney is a good man, with experience and all what we need to succeed!. Obama has no business experience no idea where to go and offering you nothing but a collapsing plan to ruin America. React against that doing something about it by voting Romney. Don't take the risk to have an aggravated deficit(probably double) that the next generation(your children) will never be able to come over it. Four sabotage years is enough, let's try something else, and anyway: it can't be worse than what we've got right now.
obama cant make laws dimwit,congress does,and the GOP has blocked everything the man has attempted while doing nothing themselves.Get a life.
It can't be worse than what we have right now....until we drop another trillion invading Iran.
what a worm.''what are you for, red? Im for it,what are you against green? Im against it.'' One hour later in another state.''What are you for green? Im for it, what are you aginst red? Im against it''. Obama has problems but this guy is scum.
Ban abortion, Ban contraceptives. Have biblical fairy tale Creationism taught in all schools as a true science, force women to have vaginal ultrasounds.
The true goals of the radical cracked teanuts and their bosses Groper Nutquist and slapped ass lyin Willardo, the Mexican Mormon Moron tax evading draft doger.
Can you imagine what might have happened if the Pope's boy Rick the Dick Sanitarium became V.P. under lyin Willardo, the tax evader, of the right wing radical cracked teanuts, the gay, rapist, pedophile catholic priests and the braindead evangelical nuts that listen to them. Men will no longer have to purchase condoms, as they will no longer be allowed in this country. All mens sperm must be used to create babies. Cameras will be in every bedroom. Catholic priests don't have to worry however, because, according to the testimony of former raped little boys, they don't use them.
The Pope's first order to his boy would be to release all catholic rapist pediophile priests from prison as the Pope is running out of people to continue the process of shearing his sheep. He is running out of collection pot fillers. After all, he needs the money to fight off all of the lawsuits against the church worldwide.
His second order to RickyDickyDo would be to move the White House to Vatican City.
23 million unemployed or underemployed; $6 trillion added to the National debt; 47 million on welfare; and billions of unsuccessful bailouts that have lead to numerous companies filing bankruptcy within months of receiving tax payer money, and by the way these same bankrupt companies have all contributed to the Obama election campaign--this is Obama's economy in the first 4 years. If this is not enough to continue down the further path of destruction than perhaps his disregard for our American military is:
October, 2009--repeated requests to Obama administration to shut down or provide more military assistance to the vulnerable remote Kamdesh base in Afghanistan and intelligence shortly before October, 2009, that warned of an impending ambush by the Taliban, but the Obama administration shrugged off the warning saying there was not enough information to substantiate it. 8 United States troops were ambushed and murdered by the Taliban.
Shortly after Obama killed Osama bin Laden, Joe Biden gave a public speech, receiving more liberal media coverage than Benghazi, by divulging the Navy Seal Team 6, the actual heroes who brought bin Laden to his demise and not Obama, were shortly thereafter killed when their helicopter was shot down by the enemy killing 30 people, 22 of them were from Team 6.
Benghazi, Libya, 9/11/12. Repeated requests by Navy Seals Woods and Doherty to save the lives of 30+ employees of our Embassy in Benghazi, were ignored by Obama Administration and they were ordered to stand down. Mr. Woods and Mr. Doherty, proud and brave Navy Seals, disobeyed orders, went to the Embassy, saved 30 lives, but were unable to find Ambassador Stevens. They returned to the CIA Annex and repeatedly asked for military assistance because they were being ambushed by terrorists. Obama administration refused the request, and 7 hours later Mr. Doherty and Mr. Woods were murdered. Obama slept during the attack so he could be rested for his Vegas campaign stop the next day. He and his surrogates claimed the murders were due to a virtually unknown and unviewed YouTube video. In August, 2012, Ambassador Stevens also sent correspondence to the Obama administration warning them that the Embassy in Benghazi would not survive an attack and that terrorist were building up their presence. England and the Red Cross earlier this year left Benghazi because of the violence occuring in Benghazi.
Is this enough for you to vote this incompetent out of our White House? I sure the heck hope so.
Obama, "Stand Down."
Wasn't it great to see Candy Crowley catch the lyin Mexican Mormon Moron tax evading draft dodger in his lie about Libya. He looked liked the slapped ass that he really is.
Chris Christie did a great job for Obama also. Essentially backing him for president.
Mitt Romney is going to lose his ass in this election, and Sheldon Adelson is going to lose a lot of money. I almost feel sorry for Romney for spending the last 8 years or more of his life for nothing. He's going to be feeling very down after election day.
Lyin Willardo, the Mexican Mormon Moron tax evader, bankrupter, Etch A Sketch Champion, job outsourcer and draft dodger may be the worst repuke dunce of all. This guy has yet to provide his tax returns for the last 5 years. It should show how much he has evaded in taxes and how much unreported income he has stashed away in Cayman Island and Swiss bank accounts. He is your typical right wing thief.
There have been many rumors going around that little lyin Willardo was seen in a baby carriage in Tijuana. with a bottle of Corona Light in one hand and an Etch A Sketch in the other. The side of his carriage had the name "Little Lyin Willardo" on it. So when we see the long form of his birth certificate and it says Willardo on it and not Willard, we will know something is wrong.
Isn't it funny, that his new buddy Fox Top Trump never asked lyin Willardo for a copy of it?
What a joke. Less and less of the stupid right wing nuts come out to back lyin Willardo, the Mexican Mormon Moron tax evader and bankrupter and they rave about it. As most people know, the evangelicals consider the mormons an evil anti-christ cult. The mormons have been converting dead jewish people, without their knowledge to become mormons to enhance their religion. They baptise them when they are dead. These sick aholes were caught when they tried to convert Anne Frank to be a mormon. These repuke dunces best bet is to bring back Herman (9Kampf) Cain, the dress slitherer. He can draft Jerry Sandusky for V.P. Who cares what they have done in the past, they are against abortion, that is all that counts.
CAIN/SANDUSKY 2012. The true repuke family values candidates.
Rick the Dick Sanitarium. The king of the Taliban Catholics and Christians. The true Allah of America. Together with Mohammed Mitt they will try to pass a law to have biblical fairy tale Creationism forced on all people as being a true science. I wonder how many of these toothless, backwoods evangelical Children of the Corn nuts still believe the earth is flat?
These freaks should be out making crop circles for the rain god.
The congress had a 23% approval rating before the right wing radical cracked teanut dopes were elected. Now it is about 11%, the lowest in history.
The first two thing these repuke freaks did when in congress was to try to get two bills passed making Creationism the equal science of evolution and abortion banned. Nothing about jobs.
How's this for desperation--on Fox news front page it says Bloomberg Backs Romney. You go to the story and and it says Bloomberg actually endorsed Obama....they lie!!!!!!
The catholic nuns really helped turn this race around for Obama, in my opinion, when they started their bus tour to explain to people how Lyin Ryan and Lyin Willardo were going to destroy medicare and healthcare as they know it.
When nuns and bishops speak out against the criminal repukes, they should be congratulated for it.
This "Baindead" pick of Ryan is going to cause lyin Willardo, the Mexican Mormon Moron to lose the nun and bishop votes. They HATE Ryan and his lies.
Any senior or anyone else on medicare who votes for a pathetic, psychotic, facist repuke for president is cutting their own throat. Your medicare costs will go up about $6,000 a year, and your secondary insurance will skyrocket. This is according to the CBO. The National Council of Bishops who support the lying repukes only because of abortion, have highly cr iticized the Ryan voucher plan as being cruel and harsh and can't support it. It gives an average $250,000 tax cut to millionaires while cutting medicare.
There is a group of nuns travelling around the country who call themeselves "Nuns on a Bus". Their goal is to correct all the false information and lies spread by Paul Ryan that his plan is going help anyone but the wealthiest 2%. They also claim the the Ryan plan is a disaster for the poor and needy people in this country and that you should vote against the republicans.
Once the medicare funds get into the hands of the repukes corporate criminal backers, it will be destroyed.
Repukes are typical right wing dunces that listen to Fox Lies with Eric Bowleggs, David Axxwipes and The Sludge. Even Miss Piggy has more brains than these braindead repukes, as she knows that Faux News is only a pretend news channel and is only a poor excuse for a comedy channel.
There had to be a reason that Rick the Dick Sanitarium and Nut Gingerhead, the criminal lobbyist both agreed that lyin Willardo is the worst person to ever run for president in U.S. history, that he can't be trusted and will destroy our country.
They both brought Etch A Sketch boards to their news conferences to prove their points.
Romney will be as bipartisan as Grover 'just needs 10 digits' Norquist will let him be. Dont forget he'll have to kiss Mitch McTurtles tail and Johnny Boner's. There will also be the crazed tea party led by the queen of nuts Bachman to appease. Of course you can't forget the whipped up bigot brigade of Fox and fiends such as Chucklebee and wailin Palin. Oh, can't forget to kiss feet of Rushin Gumbaugh either. Other than that I am very sure he'll be quite bipartisan. I put that promise with the rest of the Mitt Phoney/Pual Lyin horse pucky.
Leadership will be refreshing!
Even Ron Paul dumps the "lying, cheating, criminal" repuke dunce party.
This is great news. Gary Johnson may take away some of the Mexican Mormon Moron's votes.
This is great news for Obama. Ron Paul has "washed his hands" of the republican party after 30 years. He claims they are liars, cheats and criminals. His backers will probably not vote for lyin Willardo, the Mexican Mormon Moron tax evader, bankrupter, draft dodger, job outsourcer and Etch a Sketch Champion. This should easily allow Obama to win. His backers are considering drafting Gary Johnson, the former governor of New Mexico to run.
Johnson, in my opinion, is too honest to win. He is truly, the only decent candidate the repuke freaks had, but they shut him out. Repukes - the party of voter supression.
"The irony of the announcement by Congressman Paul is that it was the Republican party who first rejected him, long before Paul's decision to wash his hands of the GOP. During the primary campaign season, multiple Republican committees in states across the country used rule changes and local law enforcement to ensure the Texas Congressman did not succeed in winning primaries. Couple this with the fraudulent attempt to keep Ron Paul from being nominated at the Convention by stealing his delegates in Maine, and in other states, and it is no surprise that the soon to retire Congressman has had enough of the corrupt political party he supported for more than 30 years."
Flip Flopney had a 35% approval rating in Mass and decided not to run because he would have lost.
Ranked 46 out of 50 governors in job creation.
His home state is not voting for him in this election.
That's called failure
Obama is not attacking you Mr Romney.
He is showing the American people just how silly your programs are and how FAKE your smile is that covers your inability to tell the truth or speak intelligently about the issues of the nation or the world.
It has always been known that if your want to have physical signs that someone is not telling the truth or making up something for the moment, watch how many they blink their eyes. The more they blink the more they are not telling the truth.
OR..................
If they just stare out with a silly grin, which is all you show, they are not only lying but have no other way to express themselves except in lies or making up stories to confuse the listener to the reality of the subject(s).
I wouldn't vote for you if you were the only candidate on the ticket.
I don't trust you one bit over your past history in what you have really done as opposed to what you want us to believe you have done
It's over liar.
The problem with lyin Willardo is what he owes the government in taxes that he has evaded. He has yet to report one full year of any federal tax return. Once the government found out that he has hidden accounts overseas, he did not release his 2011 returns as it was not reported in there. His accountants are working on it now. When he does release the last 5 years, he may be arrested for tax evasion.
The only reason people open overseas numbered bank accounts is to evade taxes on unreported income. It is estmated by some, that lyin Willardo, the Mexican Mormon Moron tax evader, bankrupter, draft dodger, job outsourcer and Etch a Sketch champion has hidden about 32 million in numbered accounts in the Cayman Islands and Switzerland. Unnamed workers at these banks sent this info to the IRS.
Hopefully, they will arrest this right wing criminal tax evader before the election.
This is why he won't release the last 5 years of his tax returns.
I wonder if that is where he keeps his Mexican birth certficate also
Even totally braindead repuke fruitcakes have to admit that lyin Willardo would be suing Harry Reid if the allegations were not true and showing his tax returns to prove it. He can't, because it is true. Reid really wants the lyin'Mexican Mormon Moron to sue him, so he will have to open up his tax records to the public. Brilliant move. Then off to jail for lyin Willardo. Hopefully, they will send this tax evading criminal back to jail in his birthplace in Tijuana. We don't want to pay for his jail expense here.
