Subscribe to RSSThe deadly hurricane that is sweeping across the Eastern seaboard interrupted early voting in some states Monday, even as Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney urged voters in Ohio to cast their ballots early.
Speaking at a campaign event in Ohio, Romney noted the significance of early voting: “I know that early voting has begun. Get out there and vote, I see a voter right there. Get out and vote, we want ya early. We need you. It sends a very strong message ...”
He explained that “all the media follows how much early voting is going on, and they look at your zip code and where you live and make an estimate of whether you’re a Republican or a Democrat, and they decide whether we’re ahead or we’re falling behind.”
Mitt Romney campaigns in the critical battleground state of Ohio as a poll shows a dead heat between the governor and President Obama. Watch the entire speech.
But Hurricane Sandy’s path of disruption and destruction may turn some would-be early voters into old-fashioned Election Day voters if it keeps them from driving or walking to their poll station over the next few days.
Early voting has been under way in Ohio since Oct. 2. Much of the state was under high wind warnings from the National Weather Service for Monday and Tuesday.
Matt McClellan, a spokesman for Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted, said Monday that the county boards of elections prepare contingency plans for emergency situations that are reviewed by Husted’s office.
“The Secretary of State's office is also receiving daily updates from the Ohio Emergency Management Agency on the weather. We are confident that at this point in time local boards are prepared,” McClellan said.
In West Virginia – which, unlike its neighbor Ohio, hasn’t been a hotly contested state in the presidential race – snow was falling Monday as forecasters predicted total snowfall of up to three feet in some parts of the state.
West Virginia has an early in-person voting option and early voting has been going on since last Wednesday. Secretary of State Natalie Tennant said in a statement Monday that early voting was continuing, but she cautioned, “If you don’t have to go out, stay inside and make sure you are ready for this storm. Be mindful of high water, downed power lines, and icy conditions. Please, do not go out and risk your safety to try and make it to an early voting location. There are several more days of early voting and even Election Day, which is next Tuesday.”
Tennant said her office is working with county clerks to develop contingency plans for early voting locations in the event that electricity is cut off.
In Maryland, with its coastline directly in the path of Hurricane Sandy, Gov. Martin O’Malley issued an executive order Sunday canceling early voting for Monday and Tuesday and extending the early voting period through Friday.
The October surprise came later than usual and the campaigns are left with big decisions – how will the weather we're seeing along the East Coast impact strategy in the battleground states going forward. NBC's Chuck Todd reports.
In Virginia, a state that Romney and President Barack Obama have fought fiercely to win, absentee voting is permitted (by mail or in person) in cases where a person will be absent from the state on business on Election Day or in cases of disability or illness.
Due to the hurricane, local election offices were closed Monday in several of the state’s largest cities and counties including Loudon County, Arlington County, and Fairfax County.
In-person absentee voting in Virginia ends at the close of business on Saturday.
Other states in the track of Hurricane Sandy that do not allow for early in-person voting are: New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, New York, and Connecticut. They do permit absentee ballots to be cast by mail, although in some cases a reason is required.
In Pennsylvania, where Vice President Joe Biden will be campaigning Friday and where a pro-Romney Super PAC will be spending $2 million on TV ads in the final days of the campaign, there is no early in-person voting, but voters can mail in an absentee ballot.

In the final push in the 2012 presidential election, candidates Mitt Romney and Barack Obama make their last appeals to voters.
The deadline in Pennsylvania for applying to a voter’s county Board of Elections for an absentee ballot is Tuesday. Completed absentee ballots must be received by 5 p.m. on Friday, but since this is a presidential election year, the state will count absentee ballots received by the close of the polls on Election Day for the offices of president and vice president.
The hurricane’s impact on voters was reaching as far away as Minnesota, where Secretary of State Mark Ritchie told people in his state who were being deployed to the East Coast to assist with the emergency response to Hurricane Sandy to vote absentee-in-person before they leave or to request an absentee ballot.
“We want to make sure every eligible Minnesota voter can vote. My office is contacting emergency-response organizations, utility companies and relevant government agencies to ensure that those who have already departed and others who are being mobilized can vote,” Ritchie said in a statement.

Obama/Biden 2012!!
Dear Voters:
No more name calling, no more silly one liners, no more days without an economic plan, no more days of blame, no more visits on entertainment t.v., no more increases in unemployment, no more impending fiscal cliff, no more worry about our children's future, and most importantly no more frustration that Washington can't get something done.
Romney/Ryan for a better America
Not only do we now have Obamacare. This country also has someone who leads by example:
OBAMA CARES.
If American people need help and are looking for a future then Romney is the future. Obama has had us in HELL for 4 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did Obama come through with his promises??? No, NO..Transparency?? Honesty?? NO.. Did Obama reduce the budget?? NO... What did Obama do?? He pushed through Obamacare that we as a people did not want.. Look back people and see!!!!! I was and still am in HE:LL>>>> Lets put Obama where he belongs and that is HELL for him!!!!!
Funny. Your rant is obviously geared towards Robme/Lyin, but you so noticeably left out the part about the lies that drool out of their mouths like a teething baby. Why don't you ask the Republicans why things can't get done in Washington? Or, have you forgotten about the pledges? The one that Grover Norquist made all Republicans sign and the other pledge by all Republicans to vote a resounding NO on any legislation put forth by President Obama or Democrats.
Obama/Biden 2012 "A president who cares for 100% of the people 100% of the time!"
Updated as of 5:32pm EST on Monday, October 29:
Real Clear Politics (RCP) is consistently cited by both FOXNEWS and NBCNEWS as a current source for
reliable averaged polling data at every level of American politics.
RCP on Thursday returned North Carolina (NC) to the status of "toss-up state," and in so doing, reduced Romney's likely electoral vote tally from 206 to 191. However, Romney still holds an appreciable albeit softening lead of 3.0% in NC and remains the favorite to capture that state in the upcoming election.
In sum, RCP now considers the following eleven states, listed in descending order of electoral votes, as "toss-up": Florida (FL), Pennsylvania (PA), Ohio (OH), Michigan (MI), North Carolina (NC),Virginia (VA), Colorado (CO), Wisconsin (WI), Iowa IO), Nevada (NV) and New Hampshire (NH).
With only 175 hours left in the 2012 presidential campaign, Obama leads in seven of the toss-ups, Romney leads in two, and in CO and VA as of Saturday the candidates are now tied.
In descending order of 'percentage of lead' in favor of Obama, followed in ascending order of 'percentage of lead' in favor of Romney, here are the published averaged numbers from RCP as of 5:32pm EST today together with the FiveThirtyEight election night probability of victory for either candidate:
.
In PA, with 20 electoral votes, Obama's lead is holding at 4.7%.
FiveThirtyEight currently gives Obama a 94.8% chance of winning PA, up from yesterday's 94.4%.
.
In MI, with 16 electoral votes, Obama's lead is holding at 4.0%.
FiveThirtyEight currently gives Obama a 98.3% chance of winning MI, up from Saturday's 98.2%.
.
In NV, with 6 electoral votes, Obama's lead is holding at 2.4%.
FiveThirtyEight currently gives Obama an 80.5% chance of winning NV, up from yesterday's 80.1%.
.
In WI, with 10 electoral votes, Obama's lead is holding at 2.3%.
FiveThirtyEight currently gives Obama an 86.8% chance of winning WI, up from yesterday's 86.3%.
.
In IO, with 6 electoral votes, Obama's lead is holding at 2.3%.
FiveThirtyEight currently gives Obama a 72.7% chance of winning IO, up from yesterday's 72.3%.
.
In NH, with 4 electoral votes, Obama's lead is holding at 2.0%.
FiveThirtyEight currently gives Obama a 71.5% chance of winning NH, up from yesterday's 70.5%.
.
In OH, with 18 electoral votes, Obama's lead has fallen to 1.9%, down from 2.1% yesterday.
Interestingly, FiveThirtyEight currently gives Obama a 74.9% chance of winning OH, up from yesterday's 73.5%.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
In VA, with 13 electoral votes, the race remains tied.
However, FiveThirtyEight currently gives Obama a 59.9% chance of winning VA, up from yesterday's 59.8%.
.
In CO, with 9 electoral votes, the race remains tied.
However, FiveThirtyEight currently gives Obama a 58.2% chance of winning CO, up from yesterday's 57.7%.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
In FL, with 29 electoral votes, Romney's lead has fallen to 1.4%, down from 1.5% yesterday.
FiveThirtyEight currently gives Romney a 62.5% chance of winning FL, down from yesterday's 63.8%.
.
In NC, with 15 electoral votes, Romney's lead has fallen to 3.0%, down significantly from yesterday's 3.8%.
FiveThirtyEight continues to give Romney an 82.5% chance of winning NC.
.
So…
For Obama to win re-election, the easiest route still appears to be through maintaining his current lead in the four toss-up states in which his existing margins are widest, PA, MI, NV, and WI, together with OH where his lead has been hovering at a vulnerable 2.0% for the past few days. Doing so would bring his electoral vote total on Election Day to 271. In this scenario, Obama could still surpass 270 while failing to hold either IO or NH.
However, should Obama fail to hold OH, the loss could effectively be neutralized by any of the following combination of wins from states where FiveThirtyEight is currently predicting Obama victories:
Path #1: Obama loses OH but wins IO, NH, and CO resulting in 272 electoral votes.
Path #2: Obama loses OH but wins IO and VA resulting in 272 electoral votes.
Path #3: Obama loses OH but wins CO and VA resulting in 275 electoral votes.
However, regarding Path #1, there is some question as to the accuracy of the RCP polling numbers in NH which still include in their average a recent 'outlier' finding from UNH which had Obama leading by a questionable 9.0%.
For Romney to unseat Obama, he not only would have to hold the two states in which he presently leads, FL and NC, although his leads in these two states have been falling for days, bringing his electoral vote total to 235, but also steal victories in CO where his lead fell from 0.4% on Friday to that of dead heat, in VA where his lead fell from 1.0% Saturday to another dead heat, and finally with OH where Obama's lead fell this morning to 1.9%. By so doing, Romney's electoral vote total would reach 275.
Should Romney take CO and VA but fail to take OH, he could overcome this shortfall by stealing WI and either IO or NH, resulting respectively in an electoral vote total of 273 or 271.
With only 175 hours of campaigning left, this one may come down to the wire…. and to the October jobs report which, because of Hurricane Sandy, may be delayed from a scheduled Friday release to the following Monday, the day before the election.
Let's hope that Election Day is free of both voter fraud and voter intimidation and that eligible voters who have registered in good faith over the past six months are in fact able to vote on November 6; let's also hope that vote tabulation itself is performed honestly and accurately by both the election commissions and private corporations to whom this essential role is being entrusted.
In any case, it will be interesting to watch as election night unfolds.
AlaskaGirl-

Once again Romney is lying up a storm(no pun intended), he told a crowd of supporters that he heard that Jeep was moving to China, this is totally false. Romney should talk, look what he and his buddies did at Bain, and that's just recently in Freeport IL. sold a company to China, and 190 workers out of a job just in time for Christmas, this man and his company have no morals what so ever, just remember the Dems tried to warn all of you! Now you tell me who is selling out to China, Romney is a liar, cheater, and a traitor to this country!
Alaska Girl
Before you make that comment , you should look at the record of Obama working with Republicans when he was Senator. Obama was 100 % partisan in the few time he vote, Obama never present or work in a bipartisan piece of legislation, his record of partisan work reflect his comments , "Republicans will go to the back of the bus" and treat Republican like his enemies " “And if Latinos sit out the election instead of saying, we’re gonna punish our enemies and we’re gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us ". has you see a person with radical ideologies never will find a common ground. That is the difference with Romney who has record to be a Governor in a Democratic turf with majority Democrats in the State House and move pieces of legislation and succeed as a Governor, actually he lower the unemployment rate 1% when the unemployment was around 5 % , not easy to achieve ( factcheck.com). Obama will continue fighting with Republicans in congress if he is reelected and nothing will get done for the next four years, no doubt he will continue with his dictatorial way legislating with Executive orders.
Romney 2012 real bipartisan work.
Washington Examiner
In a Bloomberg interview, Jeep's president said the automaker plans to restore Jeep production in China, suspended in 2009, and is considering making all Jeeps in China. "Fiat SpA, majority owner of Chrysler Group LLC, plans to return Jeep output to China and may eventually make all of its models in that country, according to the head of both automakers' operations in the region," reported the business wire service.
Mike Manley, chief operating officer of Fiat and Chrysler in Asia and president of the Jeep brand, told Bloomberg, "We're reviewing the opportunities within existing capacity" as well as "should we be localizing the entire Jeep portfolio or some of the Jeep portfolio" to China.
Chrysler builds Jeep SUV models at plants in Michigan, Illinois and Ohio. Manley said the firm is in talks with China's Guangzhou Automobile Group Co.
@Independant Thought Lowering taxes on the rich even more, adding to our debt, and reducing revenue is an economic plan THAT WILL FAIL. It has failed for 30 years now. Our debt has went up and up for 30 YEARS where have you been? Who brought on the fiscal cliff? Who did not want their taxes raised a WHOLE 4% and has held up the recovery of America all so they can win? You should look to the do nothing GOP in congress who forced the fiscal cliff again? Who walked away causing our credit downgrade?
@Richard Where were you when this country had a 70%-90% top tax rate from 1940-1982 and was all against commies? How was that not socialist? Why do you buy insurance when it is socialist? What about the military, police, firefighters, teachers, etc. are they not socialist too?
It is hard not to call you names when your brain does not process logic or reason. Why do you two not care that Bain/Romney ARE SHIPPING EVEN MORE JOBS TO CHINA AS WE SPEAK? Sensata made record profits in 2011 and was working 24/7, they had to train workers from China to do their jobs and the plant will be closed before the end of the year. How is that helping out American or its people? Why move a profitable company to China if you are serious about "bringing jobs back to America". Where is the logic in that? If you really believe he will get tough on China I have some prime real estate to sell you here in Florida.
Mitt lied about Chrysler moving all of its Jeep production to China. Chrysler had to release a press report clearing up any confusion due to Mitt's lie.
P.S. NBC is owed by G.E. and Comcast. Both CEOs support Mitt and would not pay us a dime. Maybe Obama pays some, but I highly doubt it. The billionaire Koch brothers, Norquist, Scott, Seigal, etc. would however they have more then enough $. They stand to lose $, BUT THAT IS WHAT HAS TO HAPPEN FOR OUR ECONOMY TO GET "FIXED". If the rich get richer, the poor get poorer, the money has to come from somewhere. Why did the wealth of the middle class get redistributed to the rich over the last 30 years again? LOW TAXES.
There another whole post without name calling. I did not even get to call you morons that will vote against there own self interests like I want to... Kick those brain cells a little and maybe you two will wake up from your slumber, "If I offended you, you needed it".

Have no fear. Obama and Jack Napolitano are in charge..........Oooops.
Watch out Republicans Obama says you're a bunch of fat inbreed greedy gun love bigots ...
He also said you're a bunch of dumb patriotic lazy flag lovers that can't get your lazy butts off the couch to vote and that's why he's going to win.
He also said his not sorry for getting Seal Team 6 killed ... and if we get in his way, he will send your parents a form letter ...
I cannot wait to see the Big-Eared Bandit and his laughing side-kick exit...stage left in just about 1 week from now. It's been a Loooong 4 years but we can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Good riddance, Barry...you will not be missed!
Romney/Ryan 2012! Vote against Obama like your life depends on it!
Damn monster storm, disenfranchising all those voters. Must be Bush's fault!
Saw my 1st Obama sign today, actually I saw 2 one was on the Union Hall, the other was on a closed down GE distribution center building with a circle and line drawn through it.
NObama 2012!!!
Richard- Your last name wouldn't happen to be cranium would it?
Listen my friends
And you will see,
What King Obama
Has done to you and me.
On January twentieth
Two thousand and nine,
He took control
We started our decline
.
With record unemployment
And people forlorn,
Our tax money spent
Poverty the Norm.
With free phones for some
And EBT cards too,
The lazy ones come
Freebies from me and you.
On November the sixth
Two thousand and twelve,
You must go vote
Or were going to hell.
The country deserves better
Than the King and Moochele
,America must survive
And ring the liberty bell.
John D. USN 71-77

Romney/Ryan 2012! Vote against democrats like your life depends on it! ...and it does!
Post 1.5 ends; And then I woke up.
NObama 2012!!!
If romney is so wonderful , why is he only going to get about 30% of the Mass. vote. Obviously they are more intuned to their former governor than the repub trolls.
canta. The buck stops with the prez. Try a basic civics coarse.
This IND already voted for Obama so all of your trash fell on deaf ears
Obama wants all you liberal idiots to look at Jeep since China is in the process of building 17 new auto plants for GM Government Motors or should I say CGM Chinese Government Motors.
Obama saved GM?? No Obama let GM go bankrupt, screw thousands of GM retires out of most of their retirement, then bought GM shares at 100 dollars a share. That was the bailout buying those shares with taxpayer money. Do any off you know what Obama did next?? Obama sold those shares to the Chinese government for $30 dollars a share.
Next year when the Chinese have these plants operational all of Americas GM plants will be gone along with the plants in Mexico!
Now we have Benghazi and although MSN will not tell you what Obama did it is all over the net. Obama set and watched the embassy be overrun and told Marines only 1 hour away to stand down.
George Bush got us 4 trillion dollars further in debt in 8 years.
Barack Obama got us another 6.5 trillion further in debt in only 3.5 years.
Within a year the government will be bankrupt. Who will send the 47'% their checks then??
Not Barack Obama!
I'm one of the 47% I voted early. I voted for the guy that will keep my checks coming. I voted for Romney!
Because I can see where Obama is taking America!
On the edge...
This IND already voted for Obama so all of your trash fell on deaf ears
So what?...for every single vote for Obama, Romney will get two.
Face it...Obama is One and Done! This country can't take his BS anymore. What a Chicago politician POS he is!
Romney/Ryan 2012! Vote against Obama like your life depends on it!
WOW 2 to 1 then why are you still on with your own brand of stupidity.
Because I'd like to see it 3 to 1...I'll do anything in my power to see Obama defeated.
And the only stupid thing is voting for the community-organizer-n-chief.
Face it. Barry is Done! Americans see through his BS and will put him on the streets in a week from now...
What buffoons he and Biden are!
Al Qaeda is alive, and Ambassador Cris Stevens is DEAD!
Romney Ryan 2012, and Beyond!
Wow, I can't believe anyone would vote for that lying POS Romney. Is your memory that bad. BUSH jr is still the problem and returning to that will get the same results. Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is crazy. Obama at least has things turned around and things a 100% better then when he took office.
John in Battle Creek...
Bush??? BWAHAHAHAHA...that's all you libbies got? JEEEZUS H...
It's been Barry's economy for 4 long years...have you been sleeping?

MSNBCMFE.....".....Let's hope that Election Day is free of both voter fraud and voter intimidation and that eligible voters who have registered in good faith....."
Figure the odds of that happening, particularly in Washington State where about 300,000 more people registered to vote than in 2008.
Guess what ..... that is about the number of Illegal Aliens (Immigrants) issued Washington State drivers license last year.
Guess what again .... a Washington State driver's license can be used to VOTE in Washington State.
When the dust settles after the election, watch the number of Voter Fraud cases hit the court system.

Government Motors needs another bailout and Al Qaeda is flourishing.

Republicans Block FEMA Funds For Disaster Relief
Posted by Leo Soderman on 9/13/11 • Categorized as News,Opinion
We have mentioned before (here and here) about how Eric Cantor has said he will block relief funds without offsetting cuts. He threatened to do it with funds for relief in Joplin, MO after their devastating F5 tornado, and again with Hurricane Irene. Apparently, the outcry about his positions did nothing to change the Republican mindset, and last night they voted to block a FEMA funding bill, never allowing it to come to a vote. Via Raw Story:
So – flooding victims aren’t getting the funds, and the people of Joplin are being victimized again, not by an act of God but an act of Senate Republicans. Keep in mind that this wasn’t a vote to deny the funds. It was a vote to deny the funding ever being considered. Maybe they thought that if it didn’t come up for a full vote, they could sweep it under the rug. I have a hunch those folks who have lost homes, businesses – even family members – won’t be so eager to see this swept away without full consideration.
Disaster relief is one of the things that government is best suited for. But as the constant drone from the right tells us, we should have no government. That somehow, these people should be able to fend for themselves when these disasters happen. As Ron Paul said in the CNN/Tea Party Express debate, that’s freedom.
In this case, it’s the freedom to lose everything you own and care about, and not get any help in recovering. I hope the folks in these hard-hit areas remember who pulled the rug out from under them when the 2012 elections roll around.
Romney caught lying flip flopping today on his statement that he would end FEMA and privatize it. He said funding FEMA was immoral.
Today he changed his mind again...what he was for he wasn't for and what he wasn't for he is for now!
Romney whines there is not enough taxpayer money to fund FEMA......DUH when he avoids paying his fair share of taxes by hiding money offshore, and republicans signed the Norquist pledge not to raise taxes back up on the rich...no wonder we don't have enough money coming in!
Romney wants to pay no taxes by ending his capital gains tax. Again...ROMNEY REFUSES TO PAY HIS FAIR SHARE OF TAXES!
NEED FEMA HELP?...ROMNEY SAYS GO TO HELL! YOU SHOULD HAVE PLANNED FOR IT. Romney's solution? Privatize......He said that...somehow there is a way for him and the rich to make money off the people struck by disaster!
Ryan plans cuts billions from programs including FEMA!
Ref Yahoo news.com 10/29/12
Ryan's House-passed budget proposal suggested $11 billion for "Community and Regional Development," a government function that includes FEMA and disaster relief. President Obama's budget allocation was nearly $19 billion. That's a cut of about 40 percent for 2013 under Ryan's plan, according to the Office of Management and Budget. The disparity would grow to more than 60 percent in future years, according to a study by David Kendall of the non-partisan think tank Third Way.

Senate Republicans block FEMA disaster relief funds in 2011 to keep America from recovering.
Romney hired 17 of 24 of his advisers from the same failed regime of Bush Cheney. Remeber how they failed during Hurricane Katrina? Why would you vote for Bush Cheney failed team, why vote for republicans who try to hurt Americans by defunding FEMA that would help Americans recover from disasters? If Romney was sincere about disaster relief he would fire his team.

A package of disaster relief funding worth $7 billion was blocked from coming up for a vote by Senate Republicans on Monday, drawing sharp condemnation from Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) who lambasted the conservative party for abandoning Americans in need.
“Last night, Democrats tried to move forward on a measure that would have granted the Federal Emergency Management Agency additional funding to help communities devastated by natural disasters,” Sen. Reid said in an advisory.
“This ought to be the least political issue going – whether to reach out a helping hand to our friends and neighbors in their time of need,” he continued. “They have lost friends and loved ones. Their homes, businesses and livelihoods have been destroyed by acts of god. Their communities are under water or reduced to rubble.
“It’s in our power to help them. But last night Republicans overwhelmingly voted to prevent us from coming to their aid. They prevented us from getting disaster aid to American families and businesses that need it now.”
The vote was 53-33, with Republicans uniting against measure that would have brought the aid package to a vote and put a rush on some emergency funds. A 60-vote majority was required to pass it.
“They don’t need help next week or next month,” Reid railed. “They need it now. They need it today.”
He added that because of the increased number of natural disasters this year, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has just over $300 million left. President Barack Obama has issued disaster declarations in 48 states since the beginning of 2011.
The funds are so low, Reid said, that FEMA has stopped rebuilding the town of Joplin, Missouri, which was practically destroyed by tornadoes earlier this year. It withdrew funding for the Joplin rebuilding in order to provide food and shelter to the victims of Hurricane Irene.

Romney Ad Wrongly Implies Chrysler is Sending U.S. Jobs to China
by Jill Lawrence | National Journal – 10 hrs ago
Republican nominee Mitt Romney is running a new TV ad that implies Chrysler is planning to move U.S. auto jobs to China, though that is not the case.
Romney provoked an outcry after he told a crowd in Defiance, Ohio on Thursday: “I saw a story today that one of the great manufacturers in this state, Jeep, now owned by the Italians, is thinking of moving all production to China. I will fight for every good job in America.”
The story, by Bloomberg News, starts out in a confusing manner by saying that Fiat, the majority owner of Chrysler, "plans to return Jeep output to China and may eventually make all of its models in that country."
Chrysler has confirmed that this is all a lie.
Mitt Romney is a lying pig.
Or is it. All that is sure is Fiat is planning to move to another country. And I have a link.

You are providing a link to a severely right wing website. Don't you know that doesn't mean crap?! Try doing some non-partisan research reading.
AlaskaGirl
And what do you and feisty Girl do???? Post REAL stuff??? ALL BS FROM ALL OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mitt Romney tried to use deceptive advertising - trying to panic & confuse Ohio voters......by lying. (again)
Mitt Romney does not know the difference between lying & telling the truth.
Win at all cost. Romney has no character - or ethics.
beachbum
Obama lies every time he OPENS his MOUTH..............................................................
Richard, you seem to really need some issue management control. You seem to be just a bit off. You seem kind of desperate what with all your exclamation points and whatnot. That says anger issues to me. Please, you should really try and settle down. We sure wouldn't want anything health wise to happen to you. You seem to be a very tightly wound person. We know that you guys are only supporting Romney because you have to as your team has nobody else they could put in there. It's hard when your party is full of a bunch of lying, racist thieves, and Romney had the best chance as he has the most money. We know that your party can't stand him. We all understand.
AlaskaGirl
You are way off.... I as in many want what is best for our country.. Wound up? Upset? The only reason I can see for me to be upset is, why is anyone voting for Obama??? What, What has HE done for you or me??? Nothing that I can see.
Please post what he has done for you and me!!!
Has LIFE gotten better? NO
Have prices gone down? NO
Has Obama told the TRUTH? NO
IS Obama responsible for the Libya DEATHS? YES YES
Obama has always had an excuse for everything that has happened..........................................................
Alaska Girl,
You've got yourself a bona-fide Obama hater as a groupie! Richard, instead of posting all that you can't stand about the President, why don't you tell us all why you support the lying team of Romney and Ryan?
Obama/Biden 2012
Layton, I was just thinking the same thing. He is definitely "bona-fide"! Okay, whenever I hear bona-fide, I can't help but laugh like hell and think of "O Brother Where Art Thou?" Bona-fiiiiide! I don't know whether to be flattered that I seem to now have a groupie, or scared, very scared, as dear Richard seems to be coming unhinged.
Layton
A true improvement for we will move in the right direction.... Cut business restrictions and grow our country!!!!..
' DO I NEED MORE YOU MORON????
Bloomberg interview seems to say this. You state the opposite. Please cite other than someones opinion.
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-10-21/fiat-says-china-may-build-all-jeep-models-as-suv-demand-climbs.html
Same old liberal trolls trying to convince the other liberal trolls to vote for Obama. Most of them are upset about the storm because it is hampering their efforts to get to another polling site so they can cast another vote.
Don't waste your time with truth, they wouldn't believe even if Obama told them, which is impossible, he doesn't know how.
NObama 2012!!!
Paul, you are very amusing. Hmmm. If I recall correctly, I do believe that the GOP has been caught red handed several times now, just in this election cycle, of voter fraud and voter identity fraud, as well as very questionable voter suppression tactics. Seems like the plan backfired on you guys! LOL
Romney/Ryan: Lie, cheat and steal our way to the White House!
Nibor
Obama worshipers are desperate after Detroit News support Romney , not Obama. After so many lies about Romney comments about the bailout, base in a Headline in Wall Street that the actual content was different , Romney never want the end of Detroit, he want bankruptcy and restructuring like Chrysler did before with Lee Iaccoca bringing the Detroit Automaker back on business , Iaccoca now is endorsing Romney not Obama, must be a reason. It show one more time Democrats /Obama are wrong and lying about Romney.
The field director for Virginia Democratic Rep. Jim Moran - his son Patrick Moran - has resigned after being secretly recorded seemingly advising a conservative journalist masquerading as a supporter that utility bills could be used to aid in voter fraud.
"Patrick is well liked and was a well-respected member of the campaign team. This incident, however, was clearly an error in judgment," said a statement from Moran for Congress. "The campaign has accepted Patrick's resignation, effective. mmmmmmmmm
Layton, the 1st thing R & R will do is have a BUDGET (something Obama has yet to have), Take down the Obama socialist symbols and reinstall the American Flag, Fire the Czars and replace them with an American Cabinet. Next thing he will do is get down to work with the house & senate and put us back to work. I sure he will meet some obstacles but I will bet he won't ever whine and say is Obama's fault!
NObama 2012!!!
First ... richard ... what part of that post directed towards me made ANY sense at all?
and
Paul,
What country do YOU live in? Certainly not the USofA! Sorry Paulie, but there are no socialist symbols lying around. Now if you want to get totally into symbolism, I'd totally check out all of those satanic and Masonic symbols that grace all of the Mormon temples. That's a bit of reading you might want to look into.
Regarding the Cabinet ... Romney's proposed his and it's a Bush redeux ... funny he doesn't seem to be using Bush to garner a vote but wants his extremely lousy cabinet.
And last, Romney can reach across an aisle? The man can't cross a street without forgetting what he said yesterday. Please do remember that other countries are watching our elections and out of 21 countries polled, the only one that supports Romney is Pakistan. INTERESTING!
Obama/Biden 2012 - Just ask Nate!
If you want to know what r&r have planned check with the people of Mass. they will let you know what he did as governor. But he is only polling 30% so maybe thats not a good idea if you think his s**t doesn't stink.
Which 21 muslim, socialist or communist counrties were they? Which Liberal Poll might that be?
NObama 2012!!!
Good he!! Paul ... one track mind or what???
The BBC and here you go ...
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-20008687
France, Australia, Kenya, Nigeria, Canada, Panama, UK, Turkey, Japan, Mexico, Brazil, Peru, Indonesia, Germany, etc.
Just go read the poll and remember not everyone posts with such hatred of our President.
Obama/Biden 2012
Obama's 7 lies in less than 2 minutes:
And the distortions and half truths continue to this day from the White House. Benghazi is a good example: Mr. Obama said he would release ALL INFORMATION as it became available. Yeah, right.
Matter of fact: the Benghazi attack is not going to look good on Mrs. Clinton's resume when she TRIES to run in 2016.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I VOTED for Romney~Ryan to take back America from the Progressives and the RADICALS.
Notice how republicons cheer when something goes wrong for the country?
Notice how angry republicons get when something good happens to the country?
Republicons including Paul Ryan pledged against the country.
Republicons took the Grover Norquist pledge never to raise taxes on the rich.....
Republicons blocked the bill that would end taking American jobs overseas..
Notice the pattern ?
Republicons are angry that President Obama and Team America killed Bin Laden..
Notice the pattern?
Vote for President Obama/Biden and team America...Real Americans for Real Americans.
Voter Early Ohioans!
Beat the voter suppression and vote early.
Ohio:
Vote for an economic future, not a bailout from the past. The US checkbook is empty.
Romney/Ryan 2012
Indie, Would it supprise you if I told you , the checkbook has only been balanced twice in our history?
under the leadership of the REP in the 1996 congress. I find it interesting Clinton vetoed TWICE the very legislation that he took credit for later after the REPs finished balancing the budget.
Repubs blocked the bill on 7-19-12 to end tax breaks on companies that take American jobs overeses.
Repubs blocked the bill on 7-19-12 to give tax breaks to companies that would bring american jobs back to America.
WHY?
Romney and the rich 1% make a great profit using American tax breaks, American jobs and know how, give them to China and other foreign countries working for pennies.
Romney and greedy rich hide those profits in off shore accounts to avoid paying taxes
Romney could not be more UN American. Selling America piece by piece....for $$$$$$$
Welcome to Romneyworld and the country of Amercia (How Flipper (Romney) referred to America). An imaginary land in the minds of repugs who are in denial, where the rich invest in communist countries bankrolling jobs overseas that undercut Amercia's businesses and destroying the economy. A place where voters rights are a thing of the past and the middle and lower class are reduced to the role of servants. Where corporations destroy the environment while denying public and worker safety and whose policies are vote as I tell you to and do as I say. It's my way or the highway. A place where rights to a decent education are denied as teachers are laid off and education is dumbed down. A place where the countries leader is bought and paid for by the rich and uses his position in office to force has religious beliefs on those of other faiths in order to deny woman the right to choose according to their beliefs as well as the right to equal pay and treatment for the work they do. A country where the 95 percent of the population are taxed beyond their means and healthcare can be denied by private enterprise if they do not think they can make a profit, while the wealthy at the top get tax breaks and subsidies for turning the environment into a cesspool and destroying the economy and health of the planet that we need to thrive in the name of more profit.
This is what is in store for us if Flipper (Romney) is allowed to take office. The repugs dug this hole don't let them bury us in it. We must remove the repugs and choose a better path. America deserves better than what the repugs have in mind for our future. Do not let Flipper make Amercia a reality.
Obama/Biden 2012
If American people need help and are looking for a future then Romney is the future. Obama has had us in HELL for 4 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did Obama come through with his promises??? No, NO..Transparency?? Honesty?? NO.. Did Obama reduce the budget?? NO... What did Obama do?? He pushed through Obamacare that we as a people did not want.. Look back people and see!!!!! I was and still am in HE:LL>>>> Lets put Obama where he belongs and that is HELL for him!!!!!
My dear boy richard, reading all your opinions they give out an example of a person who might have suffered just too many "paper cuts" in their life.
Mother Cluster Duck
And what therapy are you in???? Lib RECALL?????
richard ... do you even KNOW what a liberal is??????? The definition of it???? It's not a bad word, we should all be liberals!
Obama/Biden 2012
Rich, ... Obviously better than you. You have our sympathy. Well maybe not!
the word Liberal is not a bad word its the way the liberals have twisted things.
Liberals
1. they believe in stealing people's money
2. they believe in class warfare ie see #1
3. they believe in spending trillions to save two owls & let everyone else starve
4. they believe any poor person is a victim and its the rich man's fault
5. they believe the nice things in like such as electricity should be taxed to death and sic the EPA on their asses no matter how high the bills get for the rest of us.
6. they believe in running up massive debts to fuel a larger gov't
7. they believe larger gov't will take care of everyone via the money it steals
8. Liberals give 1/4th the amount to charities as conservatives do
9. Liberals think keeping our borders closed to illegal aliens is wrong
10. They want to ban all guns
11. etc etc etc
list can go on forever
Randy, if you're not a liberal than I'm guessing your calling us all out as being anti-Americans? or just anti-you? Get a grip. Again with yet ANOTHER Obama-hater. So glad you loved your Bush & Cheney years, Halliburton ring a bell? Because if that's the way you're planning on voting, you're going to get it back on steroids.
Obama/Biden 2012
Layton thats what you liberals don't get. I don't approve of all things Bush did but I don't have to like Obama for all the hatred and putting his liberal agenda ahead of making America strong.
When you are against , my right to own a gun , for the killing of unborn children due to people's lack of responsibility , the outright hatred of people who are "rich" , the stealing of money from said "rich" , making rules and govt take over of my rights because people like you promote being an irresponsible citizen then yes you are Anti-American and anti me.
15 million more on food stamps
23 million needing a good job
5.6 trillion in 45 months
Pandering to illegals
Failing at his job as potus
Damn right I am not voting for Obama and his kind.
Best part is I have 3 votes this year to offset the evil liberal mindset that put a community organizer with no talent besides reading a teleprompter in charge of this great country.
Randy, you are so full of hate and misinformation, one must only feel sorry for you. Unfortunately, I'm not one of those. You have a choice in your life and to vote 3 times, wow! Good for you. To be called a evil person by the likes of you, I can only state that Karma is one big ol' bitch and she bites.
Ugly comments coming from you ilk, nothing but a compliment.
Obama/Biden 2012
Randy-
I keep hearing that "15 million more are on food stamps." In fact, you are right about that! But how many are "working poor" My company pays many of its employees who work for me minimum wage, and even though they work 50 hours a week, plus, they still need food stamps to feed their families. I know, I have to help them quailify for it. Let me ask you a question, and I will keep an open mind about it. How would the Romney/Ryan administration address such a horrible state when those who work that much make so little?
When you go to vote...remember ..Romney hired 17 of 24 of his advisers from the Bush Cheney regime....those same 17 helped Bush Cheney lie the nation into war killing thousands of our troops, wounding thousands more and still dying, destroyed our economy not paying for the war.
These very same war mongers did help to get Cheneys company,Haliburton, NO BID CONTRACTS...BLOOD FOR WAR PROFITS! Repubcons as usual. Vote against the same failed Romney/Bush/Cheney team. Why vote for the same failed Bush team?
Soldiers, veterans and their families want no more needless dying for war profits. Romney the coward ran away to France during Viet Nam war days, now he wants more war profits for the greedy rich 1%. This coward has no business running for president when he ran away from the first chance he had to protect our country!
I as is most people want a good life... I want to WORK and make a living for my family... I want ends to meet.. I want prosperity as most do.. I want MORE... With Obama and his SOCIALISTIC agenda we are a lost cause.... Why is it that LIBS/DEMS can not see the truth??? The pied piper, Obama, has the flute to call many!!!!!!!
rich, so you are willing to trade socialism for a romney nazi agenda?
On the edge, I think I recognize the syndrome that Richard suffers from and he is to be pitied. It is quite common in confined places like a delivery truck or a trailer park. Its called Rushlimbaughtglenbeckitce. It goes in through the ear and gets caught in their brain, one of the symptoms that most have are ditto brained post in blogs like this one. Obama killed nobody, most of the stuff is lighting up snoops that you come in here and spread.
Listen up Richard, we have suffered enough in the last 40 years from supply side economics. Nobody is asking you to do more then your fair share. Nobody. Whether you like it or not we live in a democracy, not a fascist state and if you want that, the closest is Iran. Go live there. They got what you want for a country.
Richard you can put away your whiney rant and man up.....everything you whine about is caused by republicans! Let me remind you again!
Let us not forget why the economy didn't recover faster. Republicans pledged to take the nation down in order to make President Obama a one term President!
WHY DON'T RT WINGERS AND REPUBS BRAG ABOUT HOW THEY DELIBERATELY PREVENTED THE ECONOMY GETTING BETTER FASTER?
REPUBS CAUSE THE ECONOMY TO GROW SLOW, THEN WHINE THAT IT IS NOT GROWING!
RYAN SABOTAGES THE ECONOMY. REPUBS BLOCK BRINGING OFFSHORE JOBS BACK TO AMERICA.
REPUBS DO THEIR BEST TO MAKE AMERICA WORSE!
From dailykos.com 9/6/12 by keepemhonest Story : MAtt APPUZZO FACT CHECK THIS.2009 PAUL RYAN PLOTTED TO SABOTAGE THE ECONOMY.
So, allow me to educate Matt Apuzzo with real facts that really led to the Republican's plotted obstruction to guarantee legislative cluster-f@ck.
FACT 1. In Robert Draper's book, "Do Not Ask What Good We Do: Inside the U.S. House of Representatives" Draper wrote that on inauguration night, 2009, during a four hour, "invitation only" meeting with GOP Hate-Propaganda Minister, Frank Luntz, the below listed Senior GOP Law Writers literally plotted to sabotage, undermine and destroy America's Economy.
FACT 2: Draper wrote the guest list included:
FACT 3: Newt Gingrich confirms meeting took place in an interview with Al Sharpton's Politics Nation on June 12, 2012
FACT 4: Two months after Paul Ryan's covert meeting where they plotted to sabotage the US Economy, in March 2009, Rep. Pete Sessions said Republicans should follow the model of the Taliban in its battles against President Obama.
In the March 2009 interview with National Journal Rep Sessions said:
Rep Pete Sessions went on to say:
FACT 5: Also, at the January 20, 2009 meeting they plotted to suddenly stop supporting any Stimulus Legislation, even though, they all supported Bush/Cheney Stimulus legislation.
Wait! I thought Obama is a communist? Wait! I thought Obama is a Marxist? Wait! I thought Obama is a fascist? Wait! I think you guys are full of sh!t!
Obama/Biden 2012
He is all of the above---
Thank you!!
Only people who are full of @!$%# are Alaska Girl, Feisty Girl, American Girl and LIBS!!!! Life is Better when You are a FREE people, NOT TASKED BY OBAMA!!!!
Wow. You two are so deep into the Lush/Fox elixir it is unreal.
Not sure where you think you are, Richard, but we have and always will be a free people. You really need to step away from Lush/Fox. It is severely gutting what little brain matter you have left.
AlaskaGirl
I really feel sorry for you.. People like you are drawn in to unbelievable statements by Obama... The Pied Piper at his best bringing you into a world of make believe.....
What do communist do? They take away your rights to vote, your rights to treat your own body according to how you believe, your rights to a safe work environment and to negotiate your own terms in the work place, your rights to dent health benefits as well as your rights to a decent wage and and affordable living. Who gets the benefits in a communist system? The wealthy and the politicians that support them. Isn't this what Hitler did? Isn't this how China and North Korea are run? Isn't this what the repugs are trying to do?
Obama/Biden 2012
saturnsrim
You are a true FOOL in this great COUNTRY!!!!!!
rich, are there any other cretins in your family or are you the only one?
Richard, let me give you an example of liberal: Today in "USA Today" an article appeared about California voting to require all foods that have genetic alteration to be labeled as such with which food stuffs were altered. The special labeling will cause the price of food to rise nation wide. If California wants unaltered food let those foods be so labeled. Even so called organic grown foods have genetically altered seeds, unless they come from old farm stock of home grown seed stock.
The food industry needs to let California go hungry and the rest of the clueless can join in. There is the alternative of buying Chinese and maybe the farms will outsource.
NObama 2012!!!
Paul, you Monsanto lover you! Genetically modify it so you can develop better chemicals to keep the weeds out. Thanks, but no thanks! Too bad I don't live in California anymore, I'd be championing that one. Regarding your definition of a liberal . . .
Here it is ...
From my neck of the woods, I'm proud to wear that label.
Obama/Biden 2012
free from bigotry.? where did that come from or did you type that yourself???
Did you look it up???? If not, I'd suggest a D I C T I O N A R Y and one that covers more than "See Spot Run!"
You'll find it Randy, that is of course if you can master Google.
Obama/Biden 2012
I copied and paste it. I used BING not google sorry.
Liberal One who acts like an ass to everyone on the internet ref. layton-3777410
You are such a looser
sound familiar ?? Atleast I did look up mine not from a seed **rolls eyes**
Randy, yes it sounds familiar. It's an article I wrote and posted on my newsvine page. Good lord! That's supposed to upset me? What are you 5? Scratch that .... five year olds have more sense.
Obama/Biden 2012
Loving being a loser in your eyes. If I were more, I'd truly be concerned.
ROMNEY NOT ONLY SUPPORTS SHIPPING AMERICAN JOBS OFFSHORE , ROMNEY IS THE OUTSOURCER IN CHIEF!
As we sit typing Romney is outsourcing American jobs from a profitable company. Not content with great profits, Romney's company wants the profits sent to his offshore accounts so he can avoid paying taxes on the profits. Now you know why Romney won't show his taxes.....
Romney tax cheater in chief!!! Romney the American job hater because of his need for greed!
Layton, isn't it fun messing with an obviously ignorant person?! We always seem to get the best of them! They are no match for us libs!
Obama/Biden 2012
How does calling me ignorant change the fact he made up his entire quoted definition of a liberal, when I used a direct standardized quote.
more like no match for us liars.
go make up more lies,,talk about acting like a 5yr old.
Romney provoked an outcry after he told a crowd in Defiance, Ohio on Thursday: “I saw a story today that one of the great manufacturers in this state, Jeep, now owned by the Italians, is thinking of moving all production to China.
Do you think they are anticipating that Robme will get into office and they will get the tax breaks he promised them if he does? Another case of the rich wrecking the economy and taking away jobs. These are the people that Robme represents not Obama. This is no different than blaming what Bush did to wreck the economy on the Obama administration. Repugs refuse to accept the responsibility of what they have done to the country.
Vote for Romney!!!
America's future depends on it!!
Do it for your Children!
God Bless America!!!
Obama said..
I will reduce the debit in half..NOPE. He called GWB unpatriotic for raising the debit by 4 trillion in 8 years. Obama raised it by 6 trillion in 3 1/2 years.
The stimulus will create enough shovel ready jobs to drop the unemployment rate to 5%..NOPE. Unemployment is near 8% with 23 million people still out of work. 47 million on food stamps which has increased by 15million. 1 in 6 Americans in poverty. 50% of college grads can not find a job.
I will be transparent..NOPE. Still refuses to release his college and passport records, sealed the Fast and Furious docs, lied about the events in Libya that lead to the death of our ambassador and 3 other Americans.
Will Obama get re-elected...NOPE.
Regardless of your opinion on wether President Obama lied about Lybia or not, it did not LEAD to 4 deaths, it had already occured ya dope. You really think something President Obama said the next day lead up to the events of the day before? TIME WARP!!
Obama lied, and four Americans died, in a firefight, that lasted seven hrs, in Benghazi, Libya! NATO forces were just a few hundred miles away, in Signorella, Italy! As the firefight continued, CIA assets, in the CNC, in Benghazi, gave a minute by minute SITREP, to the US Command Authority, in the US. While two US Drones, flew overhead, giving real-time actionable intelligence to our leaders! The President of the US, did NOTHING, to help these men, NOTHING. But go to Las Vegas, to raise more campaing funds!
Romney Ryan 2012
Obama's incompetence and fear of offending radical Islamics led to his failure to act in preventing the deaths of Americans in Benghazi.
His outrageous and cowardly lies that followed the attack are so offensive , it numbs the mind. Still this non leader and gutless Prez dodges and deflects questions of authority and orders that came from him. He is a loser who should never have been allowed in White House.
Benghazi will follow him all the way to the voting polls and and add to his political demise.
It will be interesting to see how Virginia voters react to the President's handling of Hurricane Sandy. Although at present they're on the southern edge of the eye of the storm, there is sure to be considerabe damage along the coastline in particular.
RCP currently has Virginia as a dead heat, but FiveThirtyEight has Obama's chance of winning Virginia at almost 60% and growing.
It's also rather interesting how complimentary Governor Christie is being toward the President regarding federal provision of FEMA resources to New Jersey. Were I in Romney's campaign headquarters, I'd just as soon have Christie STFU.
Perhaps Christie is still angling for a face-to-face with Springsteen....
The Obama camp lives by Emanuel's phrase: "Never let a disaster go to waste." In other words Obama only sees this storm as an opportunity to garner votes and not a true gesture of being sincere and helpful. We will know for sure if he doles out millions after millions. Perhaps he will give them each a new GM car to go with their Obama phone.
larry, is stupidity an inherited state in your family or did you have to work at it?
The Democrat motto: "Vote early and vote often."
This is what happens when no identification is needed. Eventually the voter process will become so rife with fraud we will no longer have elections.
I thought it was the repugs suppressing the vote and stealing elections through fraud as Bush did with the Florida vote. Isn't it Romney that owns the company providing the voting machines? Sounds like it's the repugs we have to watch out for to me.
or more precisely "votar temprano y votar a menudo"
How many cases of voter fraud did fox verify? somewhere between 0 and10. how many cases of voter intimidation and mis-information by repubs in swing states? between 100 and 10,000, but according to fox, 0.
Mitt Romney tried to use deceptive advertising - trying to panic & confuse Ohio voters......by lying. (again)
Mitt Romney does not know the difference between lying & telling the truth.
Win at all cost - is Mitt's mantra.
Romney has no character - or ethics.
Obama has less character and ethics than anybody I've ever met.
Beach Bum,
You must live under a rock or have your head up your arse. Have you read anything about the gun walking scandal? Have you read anything about the Libyan Al Qaida scandal? How in the sam hell could you think Obama has even one honest part in his entire body? Then you have the nerve to say Romney is a liar without any proof? Just because someone changes their mind on a position presumably after learning more information does not make them a liar. Otherwise everyone in the world would be a liar. When you openly deceive as Obama has then that is lying.
I hope you have never met him for he is a racist that never cares about the white people... Case in fact, the last girl who was attacked by 2 blacks, was anyone there to protest from the GOV. or NAACP???? No.... LMFAO
Damn rich, and I thought it was you.
Dear Richard, get used to standing in a line as Romney will make moving jobs overseas even more lucrative so he, along with his associates, can make more money in doing so. He has played a part in Dephi, Senata and other company jobs going to China. Try to read up on it if you can. You are selling out America by standing for Mitt. Find out the facts, you won't get them on Fox. You'll need to do some real research if you care about your country. You know he has lied to you about a number of things with the latest being that Jeep is being sent to China. It is better to be embarassed now learning the facts than to be fooled into voting for Romney. I used to be a republican. I voted for Reagan. I liked McCain, but Like Colin Powell I can not vote for Romney.
But you can vote for a fraud like Obama? LOL
Vernon
You need to read about the TRUTH and see for yourself bud.... You are a lost soul among the living...
@Vernon,
You are attempting to reason with the unreasonable.
A valiant attempt, but alas, to no avail.
Obama/Biden 2012
It's now 6:00pm on the East Coast.
Only 174 hours left in the 2012 presidential campaign.
Time is running out for Romney and the numbers are moving away from him in all eleven of Real Clear Politics' toss-up states.
Even in OH, where Obama's averaged lead dipped from 2.1% to 1.9% this morning, FiveThirtyEight increased the President's chances of winning the Buckeye State from 73.5% to 74.9%. Even this good news for Romney turns out to be not so good, it seems.
Minnesota is now in play and by the end of the week so too will be Iowa. The trend is more and more people are moving to Romney and away from Obama The Liar.
Well if Obama wins then KISS your ass goodbye!!!!!!!!
Larry,
Minnesota is anything BUT in play.
According to RCP, Obama's lead is holding at 5.3%, well outside the margin of error.
I realize that you want to believe that Romney has a chance, but don't bother looking to Minnesota as that opportunity. Minnesota is Obama's.
MSNBCMFE
Keep believing that!!!...LOL
It's not a matter of faith, richard. I don't need to "BELIEVE" it. The numbers bear it out.
richard,
I suppose that you call yourself a Christian, as well.
Hoping that ANYONE commits suicide is sinful, and your Maker will hold you to account.
No I am not a Christian.... LMFAO... Is that another excuse just like Obama's
So it appears that you're not a hypocrite, just an umimaginably crude and cruel individual.
I am a realist and what are you sir???? A rat following the pied piper????
Richard you sound more like an angry drunk with a computer.
I follow the polls and MSNB has always put out the right #'s be that 538 or intrade who are very reliable
richard and numbers .... 14.6 - reported. Definitely against the COH.
larry and richard seem to be joined at the hip. or swapping spit. how disgusting they are.
Not a republican/democrat thing... Romney isnt my first choice for president, but if we are going to have an America in 20 years, Romney is our only hope. Voted for Obama in 08, he has only increased the poverty class, broke our immigration laws, left our diplomats to die as he watch via drone. I'm a democrat, but I have no choice to vote for Romney. Obama has failed.
getreal-6323105
Obama was delivered a train wreck and has only started what is necessary to recover despite the opposition and roadblocks put in his way by the repugs. Recovery takes far longer than it does to wreck the nation. Take a look at how long it took when the repugs caused the great depression. It took over ten years and ten times the amount of money to put the country back on track back then. With all of the interference from the pugs recovery has been slow but we are recovering in spite of them. Use your vote to remove the repugs from office and unite our government so that we can move forward. Romney will undue this country and lead us into another depression.

You need therapy!!!!Recovery needs just a year or two to stabilize and then rebuild???? What classes in school did you take??? PE
and if re-elected he will acquire a worse economy from a less competent President than he did in the first term.
getreal, you have a choice- abstain. you voted for mclain last time. guaranteed.
getreal,
You're hardly a Democrat. You're clearly a FOX viewer, as attested to by your banal recitation of the drone BS.
I do believe getreal is/was a democrat, or as I like to refer to people who can no longer support Obama because of his failed economic and foreign policy...we are Recovering Liberals. There are many many of us and we will vote for Romney, he is our only hope to make America strong!
You're probably right in the fact that you aren't a liberal anymore marmee ... as that definition is such ..
and the entire Romney platform is just Bush's done over with pretty colors and more lies than Cheney ever told!
Obama/Biden 2012
marmee, if you were a liberal, you must be illiterate if you think romney is an upgrade. I bet you are a fox man.
Sheik Barack Hussein- "I did not have sex with that video."
Vote early! Don't forget to vote for the party that endorses a strong FEMA.
Per Romney: Fema should distribute the funds to the states, ultimately to the people themselves. A Pre-specified amount of dollars could be distributed to each state to manage, and if a state runs out of relief funds, it is out of luck....
Per Obama: Keep the money for disaster relief in one place, and use it to cover the cost of the damage, and not speculate on a state by state basis! Isn't the whole idea to cover whichever states need relief the most?
We saw what immoral heathens Republicans were, when the last big storm came up the East Coast, wiping out infra-structure from Florida to Vermont. Republicans opposed a bill that would have funded FEMA so it could offer to help these states!
Is that the Party that represents the people? Nooo!
Vote early. Sorry Jack Off all those Somalis and Mexicans the Kenyan Kalamity paid to vote for him won't go out in the rain. They're laying on their couches watch Rachel Madcow and sending smoke signals with their crack pipes. Demoncraps don't go out in the rain. Sheik Barack Hussein-"I'm melting, melting, melting. LOL
Sheik Barack Hussein's explanation for Benghazi massacre- "there was a tsunami, I ran out of gas, the ATM wasn't working, the dog ate my national security briefings, video, video, video, my suit didn't come back from the cleaners, I had a flat, I didn't have enough for cab fare, my cousin came in from Nairobi, there was a hurricane, AN EARTHQUAKE, IT'S NOT MY FAULT!"
Yep, Obama at his best, an excuse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First, I quoted Romney! The video was clear and Romney's voice was intelligible. Republicans, in efforts to tie up disaster relief and FEMA funds, were willing to keep emergency services from getting to Americans, while Republicans held the funds hostage in the House of Representatives, where Rape-publicans hold the majority vote! We can't very well blame Obama for what the Republicans did with majority control, now can we?
I am sorry leftsux is so ignorant, and I hope he gets some Obamacare soon for his bi-polar disorder. And richard, you can't even be original. At least the blathering of leftsux matches my entire picture of a typical Tea Party Republican. You, I am sorry, do not qualify yet....
Jack, leftsux does not have bipolar disorder. You insult everyone who legitimately suffers with that disease. Leftsux's problem is that he is mentally deficient. His IQ is stuck right around 62. There is no therapy or medication for that. He is just terminally stupid.
If you want a president who will fight to make the lives of ordinary Americans better;
If you want a president who will stay the course and see the nation through the difficult economic times that were left on his plate when he stepped in;
If you want a president who represents the best and brightest and who understands that a better educated nation will help us better compete in a global economy;
If you want a president who is entirely self-made and who worked hard to make it to the top in this great nation of ours, setting a great example of a true American success story and wants all of us to achieve great things as well; and
If you want a president who is poised to achieve an even better second term than he had in his first,
then please join me in re-electing President Obama, who has earned a second term via his outstanding leadership, committment, patriotism and love of country. Thank you Mr. President for all you have accomplished, under difficult circumstances, and we look forward to the second term you seek.
Four more years!!
Another ignorant brainwashed obama lover, Lol.
Watch out Republicans Obama says you're a bunch of fat inbreed greedy gun love bigots ...
He also said you're a bunch of dumb patriotic lazy flag lovers that can't get your lazy butts off the couch to vote and that's why he's going to win.
He also said his not sorry for getting Seal Team 6 killed ... and if we get in his way, he will send your parents a form letter ...
I'd rather have a commander in chief than a liar and thief. Romney's new Jeep ad out after he was called out on the lie says it all...
Once upon a time when I was young I thought America was a great and proud COUNTRY!!!! But as I grow older I see this country of people becoming like Europe or Russia.. I have always liked my freedom but I see that being taken away.
Obama wants redistribution of wealth??? Does that not sound like communism???
Obama wants gestapo type agents in place if we as a country have a problem??? NAZI???
Obama wants his way or no way, not DEM or REP, ???? Dictatorship????
I see you found your way to Romneyworld. Another repug living in denial and illusion. No facts? Just delusional statements? You should probably see a psychologist before Romney turns your health-care into a voucher.
Rich, do you realize nazis are right wing socialists. you cant be a nazi and a communist.
Do you also not realize that taxation is redistribution of wealth and the only source of funds for the gov?
The last item has no creedence whatsoever. Very childish.
Benghazi Gate (President lies/4 dead Americans), Fast and Furious (Guns to Mexicans, dead Mexicans and border agents), al Qaeda resurging around the world, terrorism, fiscal cliff, high unemployment, little economic growth, high gas prices, Solyndra bankruptcy and others, shovel ready jobs, class warfare, and Obamacare. That's not the hope and change we voted for four years ago. That's why my vote goes to Romney to clean up Obama's mess.
Thank you for the latest from the brain-dead at fox. The only thing romney can clean up is the toilet and he is not good at that either. Call ann.
Four more years. Hussein Obumbler hasn't finished turning the USA into the biggest 3rd world cess pool on the planet.
HELLO, and if he he reelected we are DOOMED!!!!!!
In your case, I can only hope that is true.
We dont need to hear all the no name poll predictions. The most accurate poll of all time is the Gallop. Of the likely voters Romney leads 51 to Obama's 46. End of subject.
Romney only has a 19% chance of winning the presidency. If he loses Ohio, it is under 10%. Romney has gained in "likely voters" in established red southern states which has no effect of the race. What does matter is the lead that Obama has in "registered voters" in toss up states. Thats what matters.
Todays Rasmussen poll, they were the most accurate pollesters in the past 2 presidential elections projecting the vote totals within 1/2 % point.
Ohio: Romney 50%
Obama 48%
All swing states tracking poll; Romney 51%
Obama 45%
the most accurate???
538 and intrade have called IT!!!! for some more time than Rasmussen and their numbers are different from yours
Hello Feisty, Alaskan, American Girl do you see this you Bitch!s????? You 3 can put forth all the BS you want but as I can see it the true AMERICANS see the TRUTH
They might BS but they do so in English. A skill that has avoided you. Do try to do better tomorrow.

women ? I notice that you have been yakking at Feisty, Alaskan Girl and American Girl and name calling. This
