Fox News poll: Obama's lead grows as Romney's support slips

The president would take 49 percent of the vote compared to Romney's 40 percent in a head-to-head matchup if the election were held today, the poll found.

It's gonna get worse.

How The Right Robbed Romney Of His Running Room
Mitt Romney wants to boast about his signature policy achievement — universal health care in Massachusetts — but the right won’t let him.
It’s no secret that Romney has an uneasy alliance with the conservative base. But the movement’s reaction when he nodded at Romneycare wasn’t an isolated freakout about the one issue they disagree on. It was a warning to Romney that he veers from orthodoxy at his peril.
When it became clear that Romney would be the GOP nominee, the right, suspicious of his moderate past, undertook an effort to rob him of his governing agency. That’s included constraining his options on everything from tax policy to his vice presidential pick. The clamor when he claimed credit for Romneycare exemplifies what happens when he bucks those constraints.
“We are not auditioning for fearless leader,” Grover Norquist told conservatives at the CPAC convention in February.“We don’t need a president to tell us in what direction to go. We know what direction to go. We want the Ryan budget.… We just need a president to sign this stuff. We don’t need someone to think it up or design it. The leadership now for the modern conservative movement for the next 20 years will be coming out of the House and the Senate.”
Norquist went on:“Pick a Republican with enough working digits to handle a pen to become president of the United States. This is a change for Republicans: the House and Senate doing the work with the president signing bills. His job is to be captain of the team, to sign the legislation that has already been prepared.”
Those are the marching orders, and thus far they’ve controlled Romney’s campaign. Romney’s health care heresy was the biggest breach, and the right’s reaction was swift and demeaning — one compared it, in a widely approved tweet, to housebreaking a dog.

On Aug. 2, Mitt Romney enlisted some of the nation’s best-known Republican governors to praise Romney’s single term as governor of Massachusetts. One by one, they insisted America needs to elect a governor this fall, and that Romney fits the bill.

But the apparent plan to use Romney’s bona fides from his term as governor hit a major snag this week when the campaign brought up Romney’s signature health care law, to conservatives’ horror.

Franciscans Call for Gov. Romney to Speak with Greater Dignity for the Poor

Ask Gov. Romney and Rep. Ryan to Spend Time with the Poor in Milwaukee

WASHINGTON, DC — August 8, 2012 — The Franciscan Action Network (FAN), an organization of Franciscan friars and sisters and lay Franciscans, is disturbed by the demeaning campaign ad and conversation about welfare by the Romney campaign. Franciscans, and Christians everywhere, follow Jesus who came to "preach good news to the poor" (Luke 4:18). Our Christian tradition teaches that we are to treat the poor with dignity and to prioritize the poor in our policies as a society. At a time when millions are struggling financially, it is degrading to talk about the “dependency” of people hurting in this economy, as Gov. Romney did recently.

Beyond these messages, the deeper problem is the budget proposed by Rep. Paul Ryan and supported by Gov. Romney. This proposal balances the budget on the backs of the poor with cuts to Medicaid, Head Start, Pell Grants and other vital programs. Patrick Carolan, Executive Director of FAN said, "With the political conversation now on ensuring that low-income people are working, the most blatant affront is that the Romney-Ryan Budget actually cuts job training programs for low-income people." The Campaign to Invest in America’s Workforce (CIAW) estimates that the Ryan Budget would cut funding for education and job training programs by more than $16 billion (22 percent), including for the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) programs.[1]

Franciscans ask that both rhetoric and policy be made more just and dignified for all Americans, as well as the poor around the world. Franciscan friar Fr. Joe Nangle, OFM, said, "We ask our political leaders to not sow hatred of the poor, but to speak with compassion. Our national leaders should aim to follow the spirit of The Prayer of St. Francis, which is loved by people of all faiths:

Ohio and Virginia slipping away, that would put Obama over the top in the electoral college. Takes Florida out of the picture, of course Obama slightly ahead there as well. If he takes Florida, then possibly Iowa, North Carolina, New Hampshire and Colorado we are in landslide territory.

Expect the Romney attacks to get more vicious as full desperation sets in.

Even Fox news is throwing in the towel!

Mitt Romney has had a tough couple of weeks on the campaign trail -- and it shows in the latest Fox News poll. After a barrage of campaign ads, negative news coverage of his overseas trip and ongoing talk about his tax returns, Romney’s favorable rating and standing in the trial ballot have declined. As a result, President Obama has opened his biggest lead since Romney became the presumptive Republican nominee.
The president would take 49 percent of the vote compared to Romney's 40 percent in a head-to-head matchup if the election were held today, the poll found. Last month, Obama had a four percentage-point edge of 45 percent to 41 percent. This marks the second time this year the president has had a lead outside the poll’s margin of sampling error.
Obama’s advantage comes largely from increased support among independents, who now pick him over Romney by 11 percentage points. Some 30 percent of independents are undecided. Last month, Obama had a four-point edge among independents, while Romney had the advantage from April through early June.
There was also an uptick in support for Obama among women, blacks and Democrats.
Four voters in 10 say they are “extremely†interested in the race. Among just those voters, the candidates are tied at 48 percent each.

Two interesting and important things to note:

1) Gerald R. Molen, producer of "Schindler's List" had his facts straight and produced an accurate depiction of those facts, truths in that movie. It is essentially crucial Molen held to this standard when producing "2016".

2) "2016" is a strong indicator, IMO, Obama will win Election 2012 since "2016" is about in what condition will Obama hand off American in that year.

It's about Obama's vision to punish America contasted with us patriots who do not hate America and know Obama is Anti-American.
The timing is great. The corrupt liberal media hid the truth about this jerk Obama four years ago.

Why Mitt Romney is losing

Romney's failure to surpass Barack Obama this summer stems in no small part from his reluctance to make any bold moves on policy, and this reluctance is a direct product of the beating he's taken from conservative critics for much of the last year.

Daily Horoscope for May 21

Cancer

Take care because it's a rather downbeat day. You feel as though you have the cares of the world on your shoulders, and maybe you have. You've certainly got to cope with a lot of responsibility and duty, and there could also be delays and disappointments that need to be negotiated. Yes, it's a fairly miserable day but try to rise above it, otherwise you'll soon start to feel really wretched and sorry for yourself.
