Romney Pulls Ahead

"this program was originally started under Reagan for land-line phones as telephone service is considered a basic necessity."

Cell phones?

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

Sounds more like Holder trying to claim Fast&Furious was begun by Bush.


That, too, was a lie of omission.


Besides, that voter is not going to believe you; the phone came from Obama, that what she "knows."

"Why are you here?"

"To get some money."

"What kind of money?"

"Obama money."

"Where's it coming from?

"Obama."

"And where did Obama get it?"

"I don't know... his stash, I don't know. I don't know where he got it from, but he's givin' it t'us to help us. We love him. That's why we voted for him... Obama! Obama!"

Vette, you need to face reality. Listen to the reason of the Democrat Obama support.

It's Over
William L. Gensert
September 28, 2012

Give up -- Barack Obama has won. With the election only weeks away, it is clear from recent swing state polling that Mitt Romney has lost this election. According to the Quinnipiac numbers, in the battleground states of Ohio, Florida, and Pennsylvania, the president is ahead by 10%, 9% and 12%, respectively.

Romney can't win. Just ask any journalist or newscasters. He is toast -- stick a fork in him.

...

It is ludicrous to maintain that Obama, a curiously small giant of humanity, is ahead anywhere in this nation by 10%. The recent meme of the inevitability of Barack Obama is merely the delusional desperation of sycophantic minions. What else do they have? What else can they say?

The polls allege Obama is ahead by 10% in Ohio (or should I use the Hawaiian spelling, "Oiho") -- a mining state -- where part of the economy depends on King Coal and the money it brings in. This is the man who, through his agents at the EPA, has singlehandedly destroyed the coal industry in America.

He is said to be ahead by 12% in Pennsylvania -- also a mining state, and home of the Marcellus Shale natural gas field. Yet even the uninformed know that under Barack Obama there will be no drilling for oil, mining coal, or building nuclear power plants. And probably in a second term, the EPA will shut down fracking, which means no natural gas either.

Yeah...he's way ahead.

In Florida, he is leading by 9%. It is beyond belief that the state, with its large population of seniors and Jews, is going to vote overwhelmingly for the man whose signature legislation, ObamaCare, decimates Medicare and who has marginalized and insulted Israel repeatedly during his entire term. Remember, he had time for Whoopi, but not for Netanyahu.

And let's not forget that Florida is a state with no state income tax. In fact, many people move there for that reason -- how do you think they got Lebron? Yet we are supposed to believe they will vote for the man who gave us 20 new taxes through Obamacare and plans to raise taxes all around? And if you don't think his proposed one-year extension for most of the Bush tax cuts, set to expire January 1, 2013, is not a plan to let all tax rates rise a year later, you haven't been paying attention.

Yeah...he's going to win big there.

The truth is plain to see. Obama is not going to pick up any new voters with his record of economic destruction and the misery he has foisted upon the electorate. He will bleed support as his base withers away in the harsh glare of the Obama reality.

Take his vote total from 2008 and subtract out some portion of the voters who bought the dream but lived the nightmare.

Then, subtract out some portion of the youth vote, who have discovered that hope means no jobs and student loans they can't pay, while change means whatever coins they can find underneath the cushions of their mother's sofa -- in whose house they are relegated to live because of poor prospects and lack of opportunity.

Remove the women who don't agree with abortion on demand and contraceptives for all -- free and clear.

Remove the Catholics and other religious "folks" (a favorite Obama term) for the same reason, in addition to his assault on religious freedom, support of same-sex marriage, and antipathy for insulting the prophet of Islam, while accepting any slight on the Judeo-Christian American tradition.

...Oh my goodness, did I just hurt the feelings of Muslims by not capitalizing "prophet"? I anxiously await the knock on the door from the Obama secret police.

Remove the Jews who are appalled at his treatment of Israel and his obvious sympathy for Islamists.

Remove the sensible, who recognize Obama's impotence in the face of Iran's steady march toward acquiring a nuclear weapon. After all, we have nothing to fear from Iran, a nation whose leaders continuously call for the destruction of Israel and America.

Take out all those people who can no longer afford the drive to work, now that Obama has allowed the price of gasoline to double during his tenure.

In addition, many blacks, who have suffered most under this man's policies, will not be there for him this time around. They may not vote against him -- racial solidarity, and all that -- but many will certainly stay home.

Remove the voters who do not like the fact that for Barack, the buck always stops at Bush.

Simply put, people will not go out of their way to support someone who has tortured them into submission for three and a half years. Even though they may not tell pollsters that.

With that in mind, can anyone say there is the same level of electoral enthusiasm for the president as there was in 2008?

For many supporters, who still believe in the myth of Obama but are not so far gone they cannot see what he hath wrought lo these last few years, a second term for the president is like a colonoscopy -- they have to say yes. But really, who looks forward to it?

The once unstoppable Obama movement has constipated to a halt. He was once a god, and now he is man -- a nasty, unsuccessful man, who blames everyone and everything for his serial failures.

After all is said and done, what is he left with? The same hardcore group of delusional ideologues who would vote for him even if they came home from work and caught him beating their grandmothers to death with his Nobel Prize -- but these voters were never in play anyway.

Obama is going to lose in a landslide. And Barack Obama, the media, and the polling organizations will be appropriately shocked.

Shocked, I say!

Round up the usual suspects.

Wake Up, Jews!
Rabbi Aryeh Spero
September 28, 2012

No doubt, it's hard for people to give up their lifelong attachments and identity. But there are moments in history when a turning point arrives, and those with eyes to see and ears to hear recognize it. Many Jews have made political liberalism their religion and personal identity and the Democrat Party their unexamined home and comfort zone. But everything changed early September.

Rarely do modern-day political conventions startle. The Democratic National Convention, however, was earthshaking and a warning to Jews to wake up. Democrat delegates decided to stick it to Israel. We no longer care, they roared, if Israel remains a Jewish state; flood her heartland with millions of so-called Palestinians whose goal is to make the state Islamic. We will not condemn Hamas for targeting Jewish population centers with rockets. Jerusalem is not Israel's indivisible capital but should be divided, like Berlin was. Such was the undeniable sentiment of the delegates at the Convention.

After objections from outside the Convention, the chairman reinstated support for Jerusalem. But he was resoundingly booed. The world saw how those boos far outweighed the yeas. My fellow Jews, the boos were for you; those boos were for Israel, a successful Israel that sticks in the craw of a leftist, socialist mindset that sees Israel not as the beacon of freedom and accomplishment she is, but as something outside the leftist ideological orbit. Sure, they will take your contributions and your votes, but they don't want your Israel, and they expect you to forgo distinctly Jewish needs on the altar of leftism. We saw not liberalism, but hardcore leftism, and we saw a home where the welcome mat is quite conditional and worn out.

The prophet Daniel saw the writing on the wall. All too often throughout our history, we Jews, and especially heads of major Jewish organizations, have failed to see the writing on the wall. We are afraid to see that which is a game-changer, and so we deny events we wish were not happening. After all, who wants to change the comfort zone?

It was a convention, like the last four years of the Obama administration, reveling in class warfare. Class warfare, like Occupy Wall Street and other scapegoating calls, has never been good for the Jews. We are often the scapegoat of those envious. Knowing this, Ahmadinejad scheduled a meeting with Occupy, a movement endorsed last year by many bigwigs in the Democratic Party and even President Obama himself. Jihadists and much of Islam want to delegitimize the concept of a Jewish state by tarnishing Jews as "those rich capitalists" unworthy of a state among the community of nations.

Too often, we Jews have been beguiled into believing that Jews in positions of power have our interests at heart. Debbie Wasserman Schultz is but the latest who would have us think she is "doing what is good for the Jews" when, in fact, she is doing and will continue to do what is good for Debbie and her power base. Similarly, the heads of the major Jewish organizations have been conspicuously silent -- a silence that would not prevail if a Republican were doing the things to Israel Obama is doing.

When it comes to attempting to swing an election, CBS, or Rather, the Times, have never lied...

THe New York Times, Throb, may certainly be an unbiased source of information...

As for your buddy, one of three people with you not on ignore, Fox's results are because they too are going with the 2008 weighting in order to bend over backwards to not look biased...

Now, early voting is beginning so one rather suggests that the last wave or extraordinarily good news for President Obama may very well be an attempt to write the story by manipulating the vote, firing up one set of voters while depressing another.

But we have some other trends that may be just as important when it comes to the outcome.

Good to see your American Thinker expanding their horizons.

"Why won't those ignorant blacks vote conservative?" and "Why won't those ignorant Hispanics vote conservative?" was getting a bit stale.

Nothing like a "Why won't those ignorant Jews vote conservative?" rant to shake things up.

Maybe later on we'll see a "Why won't those ignorant gays vote conservative?" rant!

He might surprise. Apparently he's going to call out the President on his lies.

The racist...



Doesn't he "get" Affirmative Action?

I read that as well. He's doing what the base wants. They know President Obama will win in November, that's why they simply want someone to confront the President on their behalf during a live debate.

Gringrich might have been able to pull that off.
Cain had an outside chance of doing that too.
Romney? Not a chance in hell.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

The increased popularity of early voting -- now underway in Ohio and many other states -- means that the get-out-the-vote "ground game" also begins early. And whereas Obama's organizational effort in the 2008 campaign was a marvel of such astonishing efficiency as to overwhelm anything John McCain's campaign could produce, there are reasons to believe that Mitt Romney this year will benefit from a ground-game effort equal or superior to the Democrats' operation. Exhibit A in this case is the 2010 mid-term election when Republicans won a historic landslide, a result widely attributed to the energizing effects of the Tea Party movement, but also sparked by an outstanding "ground game" to push GOP turnout. Exhibit B is the Wisconsin recall election in June, when Republican Gov. Scott Walker easily survived an all-or-nothing effort by Democrats and their labor-union allies to drive him from office.

With polls currently showing Obama leading Romney by 10 points in Ohio, it is important to note that pollsters failed to predict the 7-point margin of Walker's victory in June. Conservatives have good reason to be skeptical toward the suggestion (implicit in the samples of several recent polls) that Democrats will enjoy a substantial turnout advantage November 6. Liberal writer Jonathan Chait has derided myself and other skeptics as "poll denialists," but the evident energy and enthusiasm of Republican voters here in Ohio cannot be safely ignored, no matter what the polls may say.

Only the FBI won't go because the area is unsafe due to terrorism.

Obama is the only fool, who after an act of war, would send the fucking FBI instead of the military.

There were no American citizens to drone.
