BIG NEWS ALERT FROM JOURNALISM, GUYS! Reports are coming in Fast and Furious that Mitt Romney, over the course of a mere 24 hours, kind of just single-handedly torched to cinders any and all of the minor gains Republicans might have recently made among non-"Heartland" Americans. (Single-handedly torching things to cinders is
Didn't mean to call you on it - I'm not correct often enough to pass up a chance like that.
Sure (r)Money has a good opportunity to win. But most of his support is anti-Obama, not pro-(r)Money. To me that's not a solid base.
And I think (r)Money will really take a serious tumble somewhere along the way.
The easiest way to lose is to either beat yourself or be overconfident. I don't think anyone in Mr. Obama's camp is overconfident here in mid-July.
Gas prices are going down, home prices are going up, employment is creeping up. I would sum it up as "So far, so good."
&quot;When I mentioned I am going to get rid of Obamacare they weren&rsquo;t happy, I didn&rsquo;t get the same response. That&rsquo;s ok, I want people to know what I stand for and if I don&rsquo;t stand for what they want, go vote for someone else, that&rsquo;s just fine. But I hope people understand this, <b>your friends who like Obamacare</b>, you remind them of this, <b>if they want more stuff</b> from government tell them to go vote for the other guy-more free stuff. But don&rsquo;t forget nothing is really free.&quot;
The difference between the actual quote and the headline is that MSNBC is saying Romney singled out the NAACP for wanting &quot;free stuff,&quot; but in the actual quote, he did not do this. In the offending part of the quote, he seems to be adding a third group of people to the situation who don&#039;t like Obamacare, but have friends that do. By doing this, he is generalizing the observation, not making it about the NAACP specifically. It&#039;d be like if Obama said &quot;people can be dumb sometimes&quot; and Fox News reported &quot;Obama calls Americans &#039;dumb sometimes&#039;&quot; based on the logic that Americans are people.
Thank you for your kind words. There is no doubt things are getting better. About a week ago, Fred and Jeri Thompson were hosting Sheer InSannity&#039;s radio show, and for an hour or more he talked about the lack of confidence.
No shit. For almost four years the right wing nutz have been peeing in the soup and complaining about the taste. Of course there&#039;s a lack of confidence - and a serious lack of understanding that things really are getting better. No fast enough and not for enough of us - but that&#039;s not enough to let the Republicans try again.
Even the WSJ is saying housing prices have rebounded.
And this Condi Rice lead balloon is as clear a sign of desperation as we&#039;ve seen since Walnuts picked Duh Gov&#039; to run with him. Well, stroll...
Ad hominems aside....MSNBC should have said &quot;Romney: Obamacare supporters want free stuff,&quot; which is more accurate than claiming Mitt said something racist he didn&#039;t actually say.
I like the Real Clear Politics map and poll information. At this point Mr. Obama needs the solid states, the trending states, the leaning states (total 221) plus New Hampshire (4), Nevada (6), Wisconson (10), Colorado (9) for a total of 29 more (250 total) and then a combination of Ohio (18), Iowa (6) and Virginia (13) that will net another 20.
Funny how no matter what it always seems to come down to Ohio.

I believe the magic number is 270.

Although Michigan (16) is certainly in play.
Did they just spray on that uniform?
Twenty Black Republicans in the same room?
That would be all of them, Katie!
You mean &#039;11 of 10&#039;?
I think they dipped her in it, and then it dried and shrank.
That job would be more fun than giving bikini waxes.
RCP has Pennyslvania leaning towards Mr. Obama with the polls at 7.8%.
They have identified 11 swing states and Mr. Obama is leading in 9 - at least 5 of which are less than the margin of error.
It&#039;s early days yet, but it&#039;s never too early to start winning (&quot;Goldfinger&quot;).
