Hey Mike---I'll bet you a thousand dollars straight up that Obama wins in Novemeber!

Mr. Moore, I greatly admire you for all your great work.

With that said, you think Mitt will beat Obama in November?

OK--- time to put your money where your mouth is.

A 1000.00 bet---you and me---Moore verses trumad.

Moore was trying to rattle the base. This election hinges on turnout. They all do but this one even more so. People have to show up and an unenthusiastic vote is worth the same as one cast by someone who has 50 Obama 2012 stickers on his car.

If scaring people gets them off their asses and into the voting booth that's fine by me.

as much as i want to see obama re-elected, its not going to happen. The money michael moore spoke of will come into play. Advertising works and the ignorant people will vote republican

There are WAY too many lies.

O's campaign can just blast away the lies and give them the truth. Truth may be hell, but it's there for the benefit for Americans.

for Obama against Michael Moore's idiotic prediction.

He hasn't seen the anger and the anger is there.

1 hour on prime time TV explaining EXACTLY how he is not raiding 700 billion from medicare.

Have graphs explain how it comes out of reduced costs.

This is one of the Major talking points the Romney team is making.

It's NEEDS TO be debunked . A debate forum is not enough time to explain it.
