ROMNEY IS GAINING
Posted: Oct 18, 2012
52/45 New Gallop pole today showing Romney in the lead over O. Finally America is waking up. Its not just Ob, it is all those liberals in the white house that are on the "left". . . the minus side of common sense. The country is going in the wrong direction, into the socialist direction, we cannot let this country become Socialist. Obama's parents were Communits, his mentor was Frank Marshall Davis, he was surrounded by these Marxist revolutionaries all his life. What he says and what he is doing are very different things. His ideology is very different from us that grew up here before our children were brainwashed by the liberal overpriced colleges. If we knew what his real agenda was we would not have voted for him. ;

[ In Reply To ..];)
No, like ridiculing the poster - for her choice of moniker.
[ In Reply To ..]-
Nevermind, you missed my point. - RC
[ In Reply To ..]The thread BEGAN with an insult.
Sigh.
and Real Clear Politics has him up by (wait for it) - 0.7%, with the data
[ In Reply To ..]INCLUDING Gallup in its average and not reflecting a full 24-hour time period post 2nd debate. I wouldn't be counting those chickens before they hatch based on less than 1% with a foreign policy debate coming up. As for the remainder of the post. Sheer lunacy.
WHERE DO YOU GET THESE IDEAS? - PROUD TO BE LIBERAL
[ In Reply To ..]So, do you only go by Fox News and the Tea Party or do you actually think for yourself? I suppose you are also a "birther." You do know that liberal means open to change and accepting of new ideas, right? Conservative pretty much means close-minded. Traditional values are great but welcome to the 21st century. What kind of traditional "Christian" values do you have? Did you hate the President before he even took office? That would say a whole lot.
Wow. Attack a poster for her opinion - sm
[ In Reply To ..]You said you are a liberal and that "liberal means open to change and accepting new ideas." Where's the openmindedness in your attack on the poster? She's allowed to her have her opinion without being slammed by someone (i.e., you) with the opposite view.
That's not the way it works. - sm
[ In Reply To ..]As long as you don't step over the forum rules, [the general] you can whatever you want, but you'd better be prepared for rebuttal/criticism/flames. If a poster isn't prepared for that or can't handle it, they'd best find a forum better suited to their tastes and/or reconsider posting opinions online.
I'm not a big fan of getting offended on someone else's behalf, either. I'm sure the OP can fight his/her own battles.
Nope. Not so. - Disagree with their comment, yes,
[ In Reply To ..]but personal ridicule and condescension, no. I'm glad someone cornered you on that.
Who cornered who on what now? - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I stand by my statement. It may not be how you or I would respond, but as long as it doesn't break the rules of the forum, we don't get to tell each other how or what to post.
Romney had been gaining because he stayed on script - This debate, he was more himself. We'll see.
[ In Reply To ..]We're all going to be talking about him and women now. In a swirl of confusing non-positions and contradictions, this is probably once again the real, unscripted Mitt poking through here. Certainly, it's not his campaign manager's brainstorm, and there'll be some heavy duty rolling back of the little-woman paternalism. Time WILL tell if he's the choice of the majority, whoever the rest of him is. Pretty darned soon too.
Good post. Luv your moniker, by the way. (sm) - Aunt Sue
[ In Reply To ..]It's good they are finally waking up, but what took them so long? Still drunk on the Kool-Aid, I guess.
Romney is gaining - JABBER
[ In Reply To ..]I believe the liberals have been taken over by a stronger, more progressive, socialist-thinking people so far left they are bordering on Socialism. I used to be a Liberal, I thought I was open-minded and believed in Government subsidised programs, etc, and I do they started out as good things, by good liberals. Then this magnet on the far far left started pulling everyone away from the middle, from common sense, and I could see what was happening and didnt want them to have any more power than they already have, they abuse it.
You sound like the antithesis of anyone who could have ever - been a liberal. Silly stuff. nm
[ In Reply To ..]x
This sounds like a classic - sm
[ In Reply To ..]"I know you are, but what am I?" schoolyard defensive maneuver.
******** aggressive right. Obvious at a glance. - I'm an irritated left. How do I know?
[ In Reply To ..]I'm only silly enough to actually talk TO aggressive right wingers when I'm in a bad mood and feel like lobbing one of your rocks back.
Are you responding to "this sounds like a classic" ? - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Because if you are, you're way off base. Look at the placement of that comment - I was responding to "Romney is gaining."
Oh, boy. I said I was grouchy. I apologize, SM, - and thumbs up on that. nm
[ In Reply To ..]x
No worries. I'm mulling over adopting a sig - for just such occasions. :) nm

ROMNEY - BABS
[ In Reply To ..]OH, I AM SO GLAD TO SEE A CONSERVATIVE SPEAK UP!!! IT IS ABOUT TIME WE STOMPED ON THEIR ARROGANCE AND IGNORANCE.
GOOD FOR ROMNEY AND GOOD FOR THE SENSIBLE DECENT HUMAN RACE.
You ... must be new. - sm
[ In Reply To ..]There are plenty of conservatives here who aren't shy about speaking up, posting links, and spreading their Fox News-generated fear and lies.
And please dial down the capslock.
Ha, Ha on that note. - anon
[ In Reply To ..]Fox news generated fear and lies. That is a big joke. They are usually far more correct on their news stories than any of the networks. They also may favor conservatism but they reports ALL news stories unlike the others whose journalists seem to think it is their job to shape the news not to report it truthfully.
*ahem* - tee hee
[ In Reply To ..]See link
First of all.... - me
[ In Reply To ..]where in the world did you get your info that Obama's parents were Communists? Furthermore, I don't see how anyone could vote for a man who hides millions in offshore accounts to avoid paying taxes to the US, the country he wants to represent. He has a lot of nerve even thinking about running for President pulling that crap. Wake up and smell the tax evasion people!!!
Think about it. - anon
[ In Reply To ..]Just wanted to comment on Romney's off-shore investments again. He has done nothing illegal and nothing different than Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, and as he pointed out in the debate, if you have investments probably some of them are off-shore. Do you really think the Clintons and the Obamas only invest in this country? Don't like it, but did you miss Obama's comment in the last debate that some of the jobs would not be coming back.
The difference is, those people aren't running - for president. nm
[ In Reply To ..]Apples/oranges
I'd say you're splitting a frog's hair 3 ways. - anon
[ In Reply To ..]Nothing illegal is nothing illegal.
No, but they're still running the country - Doh!

Romney CharityMar 01, 2012
Posted earlier today or last dark time that one of the Romney's daddy or Jr donated an entire fortune to college education. I did not verify the information. But I do think that was an extraordinarily snobby thing to do. I guess he thinks everyone should be remade over in his image. That might not be so bad because he is handsome. Dont be fooled by his slick appearance. He is nice man to his family, but must be a snob. What he did to those people in the companie ...

Romney As HeroJan 13, 2012
Media massagers out in full force transforming Mittens into a hero for kicking middle class to the curb and walking off with millions. The fact that a fella born into luxury and spent entire life enriching self at expense of others says it all. When one is born into wealth, there is the luxury of choice - to protect wealth and accumulate more or to improve life for others. Mittens clearly chose the former. He has spent his life in lovely homes specifically located to s ...

Romney 48%, Obama 43%Apr 17, 2012
48 to 43 is pretty close. In a poll registered voters were asked if election was held today who would you vote for. 48 Romney and 43 for Obama. What this says is it's very close and it still gives me hope that the Romney haters don't outweigh the ones who have a clear mind and will vote based on what is best for the country. So all the haters can spin all they want. Reading so many posts below I had to take what was posted and go research for myself and found out that most of wh ...

He truly seems like a very, very loving family man. He seemed much more humanized to me tonight than he's been before. I even thought there was a moment during his speech when he was on the verge of crying, which, to me, was genuine. I think it hurt him that the nice video introduction was later followed by Clint Eastwood's appearance....that part will make a lot of people forget what they just watched on the video montage!

Some Of Romney's Lies, Sep 01, 2012
It's only fair that in the lie/debunk contest, the GOP gets their chance to start their debunk tally, since so far we have a big fat goose egg for wingers able to debunk Romney's lies.

Mitt needs to learn when to zip his lip. I suspect we may hear an apology from him later today. Then again, maybe not. For him to politicize this is unforgiveable. Like I said before, let's wait until all the facts are known. This may just be the final nail in Romney's coffin. ...

They still pay payroll taxes and other taxes. 44% are senior citizens who receive SS and have already paid into the system; 5 ...
Okay, Exactly Who ARE The 47% Mr. Romney ClaimsSep 19, 2012
Link to Factcheck.org's analysis below. BTW, Mr. Romney's 47% of people who end up paying NO FEDERAL INCOME TAX is already out of date. It has dropped to about 46% under current policies and is expected to fall to 44% in 2013, under current policies. @50% are employed people, but low income, who do pay employment taxes. (No doubt many MTs fall in this group he won't be bothering about these days.)@22% are seniors, i.e., most retired workers, living on limited incomes. (Mos ...
