And let’s give an honorary freak show tip of the hat to Salon’s Joan Walsh, who wrote a piece about Romney titled: “The man without a soul.”
This is all the man who ran on hope and change has left: to dogwhistle the dregs of the left-wing fever swamp to spew desperate venom on his behalf.
Mark2/
Today he sweats and looks at notes. Last week magic underware. The week before mormonism is a cult. Kinda says a lot about your character. If you don’t like his politics debate it.
Mr. Romney is doing fine on his own, and BO is ‘hopeless’ to ‘change’ his record. Mr. Trump should butt out. I have complete confidence in Allred, Sullivan and Wright to make asses of themselves.
@Mark2: Realclear Politics R 206, O 201. Leaning R 29, leaning O 17, the rest is up for grabs. Toss up 131, only takes 270 to win. Not God just facts! Try it some time.
How the mighty have fallen!
A man who he tried to shut up with a 6-figure bribe is now the best he can do for a flack?
Beautiful!
Gloria Allred? My lord! She hasn’t the brains to pour pi$$ out of a boot with instructions on the heel.
Andrew Sullivan? That is just plain creepy…
lets see beer, popcorn, easychair. Sit back and watch the fun.
I ALREADY VOTED
@
Mark 2
Mark 2, yes you are a bit crazy but you do have sense of humor.
I guess the same could be said about me.
PS_______You have got to be going a little crazy when you want OB to win but at the same time, your money is on Mitt.
Sorry SP not PS
@SP
-Yes, I’ve been told I’m a bit crazy but aren’t we all, lol.
@DougZ
-I voted for Obama, but my Intrade money is still on Romney.
@Bsotgnw
-That’s why I keep saying that Obama’s route to victory is with Ohio, Wisconsin, and Nevada and currently he’s leading in those states, that would be 271.
@bishop
-I’ll bite. Yes, Mitt Romney is a Mormon and I believe Mormonism is a cult.
Even FactCheck.Org is calling out Obama’s lies…
Obama ad claims he created 5.2 million jobs. Of course, the numbers only count March 2010 to current, leaving out the 4.3 million jobs lost during his first 13 months in office…according to FactCheck.Org, Obama created 325,000 jobs in 4 years…if he’s lying about the jobs numbers, what else is he lying about?
http://newsbusters.org/blogs/tom-blumer/2012/10/23/factcheckorg-hits-obama-campaign-inflated-jobs-claims-over-4-million
Hey Stan,
But those jobs were lost due to the Crash. It had nothing to do with Obama or his policies.
Recently I joked that Romney was trying to sell people a return to Mayberry(especially at the RNC)
well no joke here but
http://news.yahoo.com/political-ad-interactive-obama-loves-2-broke-girls-romney-andy-griffith-19085527.html
Political ad TV party: Obama loves ’2 Broke Girls.’ Romney? ‘Andy Griffith.’
Mitt Romney may or may not secure the presidency of the United States, but he appears to be in an optimal position to win Mayberry.
“The Andy Griffith Show” is the second-most Republican-leaning program in the country, as measured by the partisanship of the political ads that run during its episodes. Only the Olympics saw a higher percentage of Republican ads, according to a Yahoo News analysis of the filings reported to the Federal Communications Commission by the TV stations in the top 50 media markets.

Poll finds 20 of 21 countries strongly prefer Obama (exception: Pakistan)
At least we who wants Romney to win in this world. lol
No matter how they try to spin job numbers I can tell how bad the economy is by counting the “For Lease/Available” signs on my way to work. Shuttered businesses. Car dealerships, beauty salons, clothing stores, bakeries, plumbing supplies, dry cleaners, ice cream shop, card and gift stores, luncheonettes….places that used to employ people. Small family owned operations. Gone. These are the people getting crushed by this economy.Not the uber wealthy and not the welfare addicts. The super rich will do ok no matter who is elected, the welfare addicts are actually making out really well with Obama and crew, hence their undying adoration of him. For me, this election is about being tired of working and doing without to give to those who think I owe it to them. The entitlement madness needs to stop.
Obama says he wants to grow the economy from the middle class out. Looks like a good plan in a glossy brochure, except small business taxes and the new health care law makes it impossible for a new business to start up. Try to borrow the money. Hah!! It takes capital. How many of us, even if we had it, would in this economy risk $50k or more after looking at how many business owners closed up shop. Also, you need customers. Besides food, shelter and the means to get to and from your job (if you still have one) the folks don’t have too much left over for anything else. The big boys are sitting on record profits..hoarding capital. WHY? No way are they gonna invest in an Obama economy. Watch the business channel. They are saying, if O is elected go conservative, if Romney, the markets will rally.
Why does Obama change his demeanor? Watching him at a rally he is distinctly different than when he is giving one of his speeches. Can you imagine if he slipped into the angry preacher indignant activist role in front of the dignitaries at the UN or around the world? Reminds me of some one whose personality is altered when they drink. You like them when they are sober, but if they get a few drinks in them…..hmmm
Its dangerous being a friend of Obama…thought he “had our backs”. Tell that to the border agent killed. No justice there. Too worried about his boy in the justice department. How about the poor Dr. that helped us get Bin Laden. Sucks for him. Now the Americans killed in Libya. We now know they watched this take place in real time, got cables and emails. No intervention. Left to die. Disgraceful.
Good Morning RealityChick and anyone else that might have signed on
Rasmussen was just on FNC with the latest poll taken last night.
obumbles was ahead in Ohio before the third debate but is now tied at 48 t0 48%.
Says a lot about the Ohio voters knowing what is going on with all the lies.
Let the day began

Emails Show Obama Knew Islamic Group Took Credit for Benghazi Slaughter 2 HOURS INTO ATTACK
- -
EMAIL TO WHITE HOUSE at 6:07 PM on 9-11: “Ansar al-Sharia Claims Responsibility for Benghazi Attack”
- -
This was at least the third email sent to the White House the evening of 9-11 on the Benghazi attack.
Barack Obama was meeting with his security team in the Oval Office that evening.
The email clearly blamed Al-Qaeda linked group Ansar al-Sharia for the attack on the US consulate.
The Obama Administration knew an Al-Qaeda linked terror group took credit for the Benghazi attack before the ambassador’s body was even discovered!
The State Department watched the attack in real time.
The emails, obtained by Reuters from government sources not connected with U.S. spy agencies or the State Department and who requested anonymity, specifically mention that the Libyan group called Ansar al-Sharia had asserted responsibility for the attacks.
