Election Poll, June 2012 Debate - Everett, MA

Repeal Obamacare

Obama needs to go - the sooner the better for this country !!! He listened to Rev. Wright and his hate policies for so long, I believe he still 'admires' this Rev. and would go back there if it were not for bad PR....His Obamacare he is forcing down our throats will be a disaster - if you're not sure, read some of the fine print. If it is that great, why is Congress not joining this program?... Obama is leading the USA down the road to socialism...

Can't take four more years of this

Unfortunately, we really don't have a good choice. Mitt has his own agenda also. There are people who could do a good job, but are either not wealthy or connected enough or have just given up on our government. The Dems made a big mistake choosing Obama over Hillary and we are all paying the price.

WOW: No we don't really have a 'good' choice ... so we have to vote for Romney -- for many many reasons ....

If Obama gets in again, as a lame duck president, he is just free to do whatever he wants - all the polls won't make a difference ... He has already appointed (I believe) two very liberal judges on the Supreme Court ... these appointments are 'for life'.... and it looks like in another four years a few more will retire and more liberal judges will be appointed ...

He wants to give amnesty to millions of 'undocumented'(read - illegal) immigrants ... and just how will this country, in this economy, be able to support all of them ??? Think: FREE medical care, FREE food, Section 8 housing - their FREE medical care alone will sink us .... They have a lot of 'anchor babies' you know....and just where will their jobs come from ??? if they even want to work ????

The unemployment rate is in the toilet now...

He and his pal, Deval, with the same stupid idea, are looking for their votes, that's all....

I urge everyone to start learning about Obamacare and how it is going to be paid for (that alone is a disaster on the hard working American taxpayer....

If you sell your home, there will be a 2%(or 3%) tax on that to pay to the government for all this FREE care. Figure 2% of the sale price of your home and weep....

I figure Mitt will break this 8 years of Obama and at least the country can start to move forward and if we don't like MItt's presidency, we vote again for someone else. With Obama and another four years, most of what we know as the USA will be destroyed....

If we vote for a president who has been on a tour bus for the last year,
instead of trying to pull this nation out of a ditch,
we deserve what we get.

If we vote for a president who led us in one direction, contrary to the will of the people for the first 2.5 years,
then turned on a dime over the last year,
while campaigning,
and did everything to appear on the side of the common man/middle class,
we deserve what we get.

He ran a far left campaign against Hillary,
and won.
He ran in the general election as a tax cutting centralist, against McCain,
and won.

He's running this campaign as the guy who needs just a little more time to fix things

If he really wanted to fix it,
he'd know its not gonna happen on tour busses and fundraisers.

Plan is working perfectly.

After 8 years of Bush, America embraced the least qualified candidate ever put forth by a major party,
just because he wasn't Bush/Republican.

We'll get 4 more years of O,
then foolishly elect anyone who isn't O/Democrat.

Carry On....

Would you be kind enough to tell me what good things Romney did for the state of Massachusetts when he was out governor? I may be remembering incorrectly but I seem to recall he didn't do much of anything for us & he left after 1 term because he knew he'd never be re-elected!

He didn't collect a paycheck.

Both Boston newspapers had it in for him,
including the Republican Herald.
For some reason they never missed an opportunity to attack him.

Funny thing was,
he never gave either of them much ammo to use against him.

Even the healthcare system brought down rates initially (in my household anyway)
till it got bloated later on.

Mandatory description coverage, added later, drove the costs back up to where they were before the program when into effect.

Not really a specific Romney thing,
but having a Republican Governor in this Democratic state helped out immensely to keep a little balance in this state.

I'd take Weld or Cellucci over Romney,
but any of them were worlds better than our current spender in charge.

What I really want ot know is was he a good enough governor that you want to see him in the White House?

I haven't seen ANYONE from EITHER party in a long time that fits that description.

The idea of a Lame Duck Obama scares me enough to vote for any other idiot they parade out in front of me.

Dukakis would get my vote over O

You are right--he didn't take a paycheck. Instead he gave all the top personell on his staff huge raises from what previous staffers made. In fact, their salaries were higher than what the Governor's salary was at that time. The number of people with high salaries together were more than what Romney gave up. He didn't need the money, but it did not save the taxpayers anything. In fact cost more because they got full benefits along with the inflated salaries.

Sounds like our mayor.. Oh wait, he's taking his salary but still gave his staff ridiculous raises!!

MY OPINION: You are right - a lame duck Obama scares me too (and it should most everyone - who knows what he would do, as by then public opinion won't matter a tiny bit to him....He's already done enough damage to our beloved USA, he has to go or the USA, as we know it today, will be no more......

He listened to his Rev. Wright for so many years - Wright with all his hate whites sermons, that either Obama agreed in the beginning or was brain-washed during those years....Note how Rev Wright has disappeared from the scene ....

The debt has, what ?, tripled during his tenure.

As far as his HOPE AND CHANGE goes - this is the way I see it ....

HOPE for change in November - there's no change in my pockets anymore. I'm paying for more ILLEGALs than ever before while he looks the other way and gives Arizona had a hard time but that state trying to enforce the laws on the books. He sees these ILLEGALS as a huge new voting block for him (he wants to be their savior !!!!)....

Anything but 4 more years of black jesus,

if he was in charge of the desert,
we'd use up all the sand in 6 months.
