Romney in trouble, even according to Morning Ho!

I've been reading my NYT before going to work and have been halfway listening to the Ho's remarks. . . Chuckie Toad is on as well, and they both noted "desperation" on the Robme campaign's part. They particularly dissed the Repuke Jeep ad and said basically that it was stupid for the Romney people to make an ad that was so easily debunked.

Well, I've got news for the Ho and the Toad. . . If more journalists did their goddamn jobs, ALL of Romney's lies would be exposed--not just this ONE.

Anyway, I LOVE it! The toad looks so dejected.

The RCP average has had Rmoney with a narrow lead for a while now. And never forget:

Or, in other words, Obama can still lose Ohio and win.

Problem for you and Romney is that he will still lose Ohio.

I remember during the Reagan admin comedians were afraid to make jokes about him. Now journalists fear FOX. Anyone that believes anything FOX has to say is an idiot. Any journalist that fears a bogus news organisation such as FOX so called news, should get a job as a garbage collector, because they sure as fuck ain't journalists!

Latest polls says that Obama is up in Virginia, and is very competitive in Florida and North Carolina. These are states that Romney should have locked down. But I belive voters are starting to seriously size up the 2 candidates, and they aren't liking what they see from Romney. If he'll lie to get in office, he'll lie when he's office.

There is no way Romney will win in a landslide. If he does, and I don't think he will, he will barely squeak out a win. But that win will come at a cost and create animosity among Democrats due to it being achieved via bald face lying.

Unlike Romney, Reagan ushered in a new era of conservatism. The era of "Tinkle-down economics" officially began with Reagan. Even though Obama is not as left as his supporters, his election and reelection signals a generational change, which was due to come. Obama being re-elected could mean that the Supreme Court begins moving back to the left and triggers the beginning civil war among the Republicans, a la post Goldwater election.

mittsnake wins at alllllll! It won't be by a squeaker it will be by outright big money THEFT. Get out and vote people. Ensure that this neck and neck shit peddled by the MSM is shown to be the lie it is. Advertising money is the MSM's god now and they are not the beacon of truth we need in the fog of rethug lies. VOTE!!!!!!!!!!
