Opinion: Why Mitt Romney is losing

chickenhawk rugby would have no more power over the Legislative branch than Obama. When this is all over for him, he may want to try selling used cars...out of that french castle where he hid.

The Republicans have the House, and the Democrats have no way to pick up the 26 seats they need to change the majority. The Democrats have to defend 23 seats in the Senate, and even if Republicans lose the one in Missouri, there is no way they won't take back the Senate, and Romney will have all the support he needs to "change" everything the Dems have done in their 4 years.

Ryan/Romney/Antichrist 2012 Hate America program revealed:

"Romney Plan Would Raise Taxes On Middle Class To Finance Massive Corporate Tax Cut

... the Romney plan would raise the average middle class family’s tax rate by as much as $4,000 to finance trillions of dollars in tax cuts for the rich and corporations.

That includes the cost of a transition to a tax system that not only dramatically lowers the amount corporations will pay on domestic profits, but also the amount they pay on profits earned overseas and return to the U.S.— a system that will encourage outsourcing and further stashing of profits in offshore tax havens." TW

Republiscum to Middle Class Americans: pay much higher taxes, receive no benefits, lose your job to outsourcing (shades of Bain), lose your health insurance, lose your life.

You will be eating these words come November, Romney is going to win, just wait and see!

Politics: Liberals now say the president can't be blamed for the lousy recovery because he couldn't get his agenda enacted even when Democrats held a supermajority in Congress. And we should be confident in his leadership?

On the stump, Mitt Romney has started a new and very effective line of attack against Obama. "He got every piece of legislation he wanted passed, and it didn't work," Romney told Politico this week. "I think (voters) want someone who has a different record, and I do."

Paul Ryan used the same attack line in his first speech as Romney's VP pick. "No one disputes President Obama inherited a difficult situation," Ryan said. "And, in his first two years, with his party in complete control of Washington, he passed nearly every item on his agenda. But that didn't make things better."

The argument cuts to the core of Obama's claim that Republicans have stymied his ability to get anything done. Which is why the left is so intent on squashing it, even at the expense of making Obama look inept.

Talking Points Memo, an influential lefty opinion site, called Romney's claim "mostly ahistorical" and went on to say Republicans "used a record number of filibusters in the Senate to weaken — and in some cases thwart — large pieces of (Obama's) agenda." Well, not exactly.

TPM says, for example, that the Obama stimulus "had to be scaled down because (of) a GOP filibuster." But the final $830 billion stimulus bill Obama signed was almost identical in size to the one passed in the House, where the minority has no ability to filibuster.

And Obama then got another $3 billion for his Cash for Clunkers, a follow-on $17.6 billion "jobs" bill and $26 billion in additional state aide.

He also got Dodd-Frank, the auto bailouts, "green" energy loans, a student loan takeover and of course, ObamaCare.


TPM complains that "Republican filibusters on health care reform ate up nearly a year of the Democrats' legislative time." So what? Democrats got the health care bill they wanted, using a series of parliamentary tricks to ram it through.

The real problem for Obama is that none of his policies lived up to its billing. Instead of 4% economic growth, more middle-class opportunities, lower insurance premiums and a thriving "green" energy sector, we have a stagnant economy, declining wages, rising insurance and energy prices, and $5 trillion more debt.

But let's say liberals were right, and the Republicans did manage to thwart "large pieces" of Obama's agenda. What does that say about Obama? Reagan, after all, was able to get his agenda through a Congress dominated by the other party.

Does the left really want to argue that Obama was such a pathetic leader that he couldn't get his policies enacted even with huge Democratic majorities in the House and Senate? And that because of this we should give him a second term?

Sorryest<lamest,excuses ever.Failed POTUS!!!

The incompetent, chldish, America-hating garbage that is the Republiscum Ryan/Romney/Antichrist 2012 ticket:

Republiscum, the worst party since the Nazzies.

"I don't want to waste another second thinking about Todd Akin, and his theory that you can't get pregnant unless your eggs are asking for it. Here's the only thing you need to know about Todd Akin and human anatomy: he's an asshole.

What I want to talk about is how it's not a coincidence that the party of fundamentalism is also the party of fantasy. When I say religion is a mental illness, this is what I mean: it corrodes your mental faculties to the point where you can believe in tiny ninja warriors who hide in vaginas and lie in wait for bad people's sperm.

Evangelicals might like to pretend that the magical thinking that they indulge in at home doesn't affect what they do at the office, but it absolutely does. The brain that believes in angels and miracles and Jesus riding a dinosaur is trained to see the world not as it is, but as you want it to be.

Republicans would like to pretend like Congressman Akin's substitution of superstition for science is a lone problem but it's not: they're all magical thinkers, on nearly every issue. They don't get their answers on climate change from climatologists, they get them from the Book of Genesis. Hence Sharia Law in America is a dire threat, and global warming a hoax.

Or take the issue that consumes the right these days, our sea of red ink: Republicans are united in their fervent desire to reduce the deficit, but they want to do it in some magical fashion that doesn't involve raising taxes or cutting any spending.

When given a choice in polls between these two options, a majority of Republicans check "none of the above" as a way to reduce the deficit. That's like deciding to pay off your student loans by daydreaming." BM

What a wonderful evening filled with hope, and, patriotic speech, guaranteed leadership with the final headliners Ryan, and Rice proving once again we don't have to become a 3rd world nation competing with Mexico for table scraps. That is the difference, leaders who believe in the exceptionalism of America, and those wringing their hands, and whinning about the future. I cannot wait until next week when the Democrats attack the Republicans, because they cannot defend the pitiful record of their President, have no plans for a second term, and have no vision for our future. Then America can go on to November when we choose which America we want for our children.

"Mitt Romney has been dogged by an unfortunate statistic for his entire campaign: When he was governor, Massachusetts ranked 47th in job creation.

...Massachusetts “did fall to 47th out of 50 in jobs creation,” Cutter said on ABC’s “This Week.”“Wages went down when they were going up in the rest of the country. He left his successor with debt and a deficit, and manufacturing jobs left that state at twice the rate as the rest of the country.”
TPM

Smutt Romney, pathological liar and complete governing INCOMPETENT.

"A new Washington Post-ABC News poll finds Mitt Romney accepts the Republican nomination for president with the lowest personal popularity of any major-party nominee in polls dating to Ronald Reagan's presidency.

Key findings: 40% of registered voters see Romney favorably overall, while 51% rate him unfavorably -- 11 points underwater in this basic measure." PW

None of us want the likes of you anywhere near our children.

Mitt Romney Sux!

Draft Dodger......

CEO of Bain Capital....

Belongs to a religious cult.

Hates working Americans.

Sends his money in offshore accounts like a Mexican drug cartel leader.

Mitt is very much a wimpy guy. I bet Ann mounts him instead of Mitt mounting Ann.

Mittens is such a prissy little name for a prissy politician. It suits him.

Mittens is a fashionista.

Mittens is as close to a genuine female candidate as it gets!

His hair is perfectly coiffed.

Mittens love of houte couture is something he learned whilst spending his draft dodging years in France.

His television makeup is applied by the most expensive HOLLYWOOD beauticians money can buy.

His finger nails are expensively manicured weekly by the most expensive manicurists money can buy.

His hair is perfectly dyed. Mittens spend more time at the beauty shop than his wife,Ann.

Mittens works hard to maintain a fabulous tan everyday of the year. Oh ya! Mittens is very manly. Tanliness is manliness in Mitten's mind.

Mittens has.....MAGIC UNDERWEAR!!!!

Nope. The Electoral College poll gives Obama a total landslide! 270 needed to win and 300+ for a landslide.
Sorry neocons but until you run a real Republican you will keep losing and besides, even a real Republican cannot beat the man who did in fact prevent a Great Depression, ended the illegal war in Iraq, brought universal health care as promised and caught Bin Ladin. No one could beat him if he were allowed to run four terms.
Read and weep the one poll that matters and proves Romney lost ground and keeps on losing:
http://electoral-vote.com/
Obama will win NC too where his convention will be and he has won FL, OH and PA as well as WI
R I P !

No, Obama hasn't one electoral vote at this point. The elecion is 67 days away, and watch Ohio. Whoever wins Ohio wins the election. Both the President, and Romney will get a bounce from their Convention. Then it depends on whether they can hold it, and who can get more then fifty percent of the vote. For the incumbent not to be able to poll 50% is a bad sign. The 3rd party guys have less then 3%, so they aren't a threat.

"The Right-Wing Threat to Democracy

A right-wing attempted coup of government is now underway and involves corrupting our election financing system, suppressing democrat voting rights, attracting voters by slowing down economic recovery, and using a well-organized misinformation machine. The right wing has no limits on what it will do to win elections.

* The failed administration then added two more right-wing justices to the Supreme Court. The Court's new majority dramatically changed our election laws, permitting named and unnamed big money interests to influence elections anywhere in the United States, and, in particular, the presidency.

* A new right wing tax policy created income inequality and a shift of political power to the wealthy. Jobs then plummeted to their worst record in 50 years.

* At the end of eight years, the right wing handed over to the new president a doubling of our national debt, two unending wars, an economy losing millions of jobs, a housing market and financial system in crisis, a massive decline in tax revenues, dangers to our security of excessive reliance on Mideast oil, a crumbling infrastructure, a decaying education system, a stock market in free fall, and a decline in world leadership."

Top 10 Reasons Not To Re-elect Obama

10) Obama's economic actions have failed to lower the unemployment rate in the U.S. to less than 8 percent for the past 42 months, which is a record.

9) The Obama administration's out-of-control spending has led America to the economic brink and destroyed our country's credit rating.

8) Obama's reckless spending and fiscal policies have added more to the national debt than most U.S. presidents combined -- roughly $6 trillion in his first term in office (making the total debt nearly $16 trillion and, by White House projections alone,$21.3 trillion by the end of fiscal 2017,$25 trillion in 2021 and $25.9 trillion in 2022).

7) Obama has detrimentally increased not only the costs of entitlements but also the dependency of citizens upon government subsidies rather than empower the people's autonomy, responsibility and freedom.

6) Obama demeans private enterprise and the entrepreneurial spirit -- the very heart of America.

5) President Obama has left the U.S. in a weaker and more disrespected position in the global community.

4) Obama has broken or unfulfilled 324 campaign promises.

3) Through his presidency, President Obama is invoking and enabling a radically progressive secular state in the U.S.

Here are the last two unquestionable justifications for ousting Obama from office:

2) Obama elevates himself above the U.S. Constitution -- which contains the rulebook for his presidency -- discarding and bypassing its principles and tenets.
1) Four more years of President Obama will not only fundamentally transform but also unravel the very fabrics of our republic as our Founding Fathers knew it and as we know it.
