The Obama campaign has $81 million in cash on hand at this moment. The GOP debates have basically provided them with free commercials. And that's not counting any superPAC stuff that comes in for him.

I'd say he's probably fairly safe unless a "dead girl or live boy" issue comes up.
 
2012-02-06 08:14:09 PM
Not surprising in the least.
 
2012-02-06 08:41:27 PM
There's not much to learn. Romney is a situationally programmable robot with all the charisma of a collapsed lung. He will say or claim anything at any time that he thinks will endear him to a particular interest.

The man stands for nothing. He would quit his church and publicly say all Mormons were Nazis if he thought it would get him elected.

President Obama [mis]leading...voters...the more they learn about Romney...they like him...[b]ad news...Obama

Lol. Taxbongo is done.
 
2012-02-06 09:28:18 PM
Well of course when the liberal media keeps using Romney's own words against him. What do you expect?

I agree with you up until the Mormon part. A lot of people in the last election didn't like him for being Mormon, and he never changed religions yet. I will laugh my ass off if he does.

They may have given Obama material, but you still have to pay to air those commercials.

dahmers love zombie: The Obama campaign has $81 million in cash on hand at this moment.

Well, George Soros has $81 million in cash earmarked for Obama's campaign, some of that is going directly to the bribes of the MSM media and other money is going to fund terrorist attacks to pump up public sentiment (like Soros tried to do with 9/11 and Gore...he didn't expect the Muslims to not accept the Gregorian calender, though). So even though it's going to help the campaign, it's not really cash on hand. It's important to be accurate.
 
2012-02-06 09:36:05 PM
In some ways, Mitt is hurt by not having Newt badgering him. I mean, for those not crazy and supporting the "anyone but Mitt" candidate, Newt was the best thing going for Mitt. All he had to say was, "Me or Newt?"

Now, he is just the guy running against Obama. Or will be when the primaries are over.

And, as I've said from the start, the economy is the key. If it tanks, Romney has a good chance. If not, then he has to run a perfect campaign and Obama has to flub. Of course the hostages in Egypt, the Syrian rebellion, and Iran and Israel squaring off is also about to throw a wrench into that theory...maybe.

AdolfOliverPanties: The man stands for nothing. He would quit his church and publicly say all Mormons were Nazis if he thought it would get him elected.

I think that is the only thing he wont do to get elected, just look at how much easier he would have had it this primary season if he had just joined a Baptist church and been re baptized, a millionaire born again Republican candidate, unstoppable in their eyes. And just think he could have said his knew found faith showed him the error of his previous ways, so no more charges of flip-flopping.

I have to say, I've seen a lot of trolls on fark, and this is definitely among the best. We should start a hall of fame.

As soon as he's the nominee and the general electorate starts paying attention he's toast. He's the most unrelatable man in American politics.

As amusing as the idea is, the thought that Mitt would change religions to win the office would be the end of the party.

Romney is an incompetent asshole who would be nothing if he weren't a silver-spoon baby.

So in other words, he's the perfect Republican candidate.

So what is it about Mitt that scares you most?
(not in any particular order)
Religion?
Stance? Or lack there of in some cases?
Money?
Hair?
Smile?
Bad humor?

I knew many people here in SD that said in 2007 that even though had a problem with Romney, once it was up to Obummer & the "Maverick" and his inbred douche... They would have rather seen Romney over McCain.

These people might get that chance now but still curious what the major issue is that farkers or even the general populace have against Romney.

Romney's already lost the race. Doesn't matter what happens, the man has no scars. No compelling narrative, no interesting story to tell. He's never done anything interesting. Born rich, led a soft life, never risked, never sacrificed, never struggled, never served a higher cause.

Luckily for Obama, it's either this or Newt that he'll be facing, and the only people who genuinely like Newt are douchey assholes who listen to Rush Limbaugh.
 
2012-02-06 09:50:18 PM
Yesterday I went state-by-state, guessing who I'd think would win each one, and admittedly being a bit cynical for a Republican hater (notice I didn't say Democrat, just Republican hater). Generally, if Obama only got a couple of points over 50% in 2008, I gave the state to Romney. In the end, Mittens won with 288 electoral votes.

I maintain that no matter how weak a candidate Romney is, this is going to be a very, very close race.

The fact that he has almost no policy stances to speak of that last more than an hour, is completely out of touch with the population, is absolutely gleeful about the prospect of taking even more money from the country and giving it to his country club buddies and wants to run the country like his vulture capital firm.

Oh, and I guess also that the few non-stealing-everything-from-the-populace-and-giving-it-to-himself-and -his-white-collar-criminal-bros policy positions he has that are firm are horrible far-right nonsense.

Well, I think its pretty simple. You just really have no idea where the guys stands on pretty much all the issues. He's jerked hard to the right during this campaign, but it can easily be said that he did that only to win the nomination. Who knows. So, you really have no idea what you are going to get with this guy and that's kinda scary.

Obama hasn't really started campaigning, and how many people actually watched the Republican debates? I'd imagine most merely get whatever soundbites the media decides to feed 'em.

More people watch the Presidential debates. There will be, overall, more coverage of the actual Presidential race. And more and more people will learn how much of an uncharismatic, out-of-touch, political windsock Romney

Willard is everything Republicans claimed Kerry was, and then some. Romney's more out of touch, less charismatic, and more of a flip-flopper than Kerry ever was. And he didn't even GO to Vietnam. Oh, and he's a Mormon, which won't really get the fundie Republicans fired up.

Now put that up against Obama, who, no matter what you may think about his policies, is a damn good campaigner and debater. Add to that a recovering economy, the death of Osama, the US out of Iraq... Yeah, Romney's toast, unless something drastic happens between now and then.

Admittedly, the debt ceiling fiasco proved Republicans are willing to torpedo the country if it means 'sticking it to the libs', so we'll see what happens.

A. The two time adulterer working on his third marriage who thinks that poor kids should work as janitors in their school. Oh, and then there's the whole ethics violations while he was Speaker back in the 90's.

B. The uber-rich guy who thinks corporations are people and changes his stance on issues more often than he changes his magic underwear.

C. The fundamentalist Christian who wants to ban all birth control, even for married adults. Oh, and there's that messy Google problem.

D. The old man who yells at clouds.

Whoever wins, Obama wins.

That one was always weird to me, since it really gained traction in the 2000 election. Most people seemed to think Bush would be the one they'd rather have a beer with, but he quit drinking more than a decade before that.

That said, I think I'd most like to drink moonshine with RON PAUL.

Yeah, there's a whole lot of premature celebration going on among people likely to vote for Obama. I think he'll win, but by a smaller margin than in 2008.

I just don't understand what anyone gains by resting on their laurels this far out in the Boobies-Citizens United election. It's a recipe for personal disappointment and national disaster.

Let's try to avoid whistling past the graveyard, folks. We should all know what the GOP is capable of by now.

Obama may be peaking too early. Remember he trailed in the polls in 2008 until the Bushies trashed the economy. Personally I think the Republicans would be perfectly happy if Obama is reelected provided they maintain control of the House and gain control of the Senate. If the Republicans win the White House they may actually be expected to do something.
