Just about every objective indicator foreshadows a huge re-election defeat for President Obama. With every day that passes, Mr. Obama looks more like a loser.
That’s because there is doom and gloom everywhere you look. When government mathematical fudging is stripped away, unemployment is stuck over 10 percent. Economic growth is practically nonexistent and promises to slide downhill even more in the coming months with Europe and its banks rapidly collapsing. Due to Mr. Obama’s out-of-control deficit spending, the national debt is at a heart-stopping $15.7 trillion, which erases a whole year of economic output by our entire country. With the Supreme Court poised to strike down Obamacare, his only signature legislative achievement, the president will have nothing to show for four years in office other than record misery.

I bet Romney will have his version of “The office of President-Elect”
I honestly do hope the Clintons dig up his past deep enough and it gets spread around like a jet turbine manure spreader and Romney quits.
Shellacking Part II

Nov 2012
To answer your rather childish responses (and they are childish...especially given the gravity of our situation)...there is a major difference between the two candidates.
I assume we will gain the Senate and HOLD the House. An increasingly conservative Senate and House will hold Romney's feet to the fire and he will NOT nominate commies to the bench, unlike Obama and he will be forced to rule through executive order.
An Obama win will mean 2 or 3 more socialist supremes and that he will be forced to get his agenda through via EO's...out of the pervue of the congress. Romney will NOT do that. Obama, OTOH, will send EO's flying faster than they are now.
Now do not sit here and tell me there is no difference.
Here is the truth based upon truth (not Romney's daydreams).
"Governor Mitt Romney, who touts his conservative credentials to out-of-state Republicans,
has passed over GOP lawyers for three-quarters of the 36 judicial vacancies he has faced,
instead tapping registered Democrats or independents -- including two gay lawyers who
have supported expanded same-sex rights, a Globe review of the nominations has found.
Of the 36 people Romney named to be judges or clerk magistrates, 23 are either registered Democrats
or unenrolled voters who have made multiple contributions to Democratic politicians
or who voted in Democratic primaries, state and local records show.
In all, he has nominated nine registered Republicans, 13 unenrolled voters,
and 14 registered Democrats."

Romney Rewards one of the State's Leading Anti-Marriage Attorneys by Making him a Judge
Romney told the U.S. Senate on June 22, 2004, that the "real threat to the States is not the
constitutional amendment process, in which the states participate,
but activist judges who disregard the law and redefine marriage . . ."
Romney sounds tough but yet he had no qualms advancing the legal career of one
of the leading anti-marriage attorneys. He nominated Stephen Abany to a District Court.
Abany has been a key player in the Massachusetts Lesbian and Gay Bar Association which,
in its own words, is "dedicated to ensuring that the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court decision
on marriage equality is upheld, and that any anti-gay amendment or legislation is defeated."

"Romney announces he won't fill judicial vacancies before term ends
Despite his rhetoric about judicial activism, Romney announced that
he won't fill all the remaining vacancies during his term - but instead
leave them for his liberal Democrat successor!
Governor Mitt Romney pledged yesterday not to make a flurry of lame-duck
judicial appointments in the final days of his administration . . . David Yas,
editor of Lawyers Weekly, said Romney is "bucking tradition" by resisting the urge to
fill all remaining judgeships. "It is a tradition for governors to use that power to appoint judges
aggressively in the waning moments of their administration," Yas said.
He added that Romney has been criticized for failing to make judicial appointments.
"The legal community has consistently criticized him for not filling open seats quickly enough
and being a little too painstaking in the process and being dismissive of the input of the
Judicial Nominating Commission," Yas said.

The Obama people are out in force this morning. The really want four more for the Kenyan.
Stick with geology. We’ll all be happier.
Thanks for answering my question.
Sorry I tailgated you...lost my cool for a second.
Listen, FRiend.
FReepers take NOTHING for granite.
That said, remember this: Romney is NOT the GOP candidate today
even though he cheated "well" and backstabbed "remarkably".
Second: Romney is the antithesis of the Tea Party movement. He was selected by the GOP-E as their boy to smack down the grass roots movement. When you support Romney you support the GOP-E in minimizing the impact of the real conservatives.
Third: a Romney win will move the Entire GOP leftward. Right now we have the far left Democrats and the somewhat left GOP. After a Romney win, especially if its a landslide, We will have both parties with a far left culture in place and the GOP Congress will happily (as they have done in the past) go along with every big government, liberty reducing, crony capitalist idea Romney comes up with. There will be no effective resistance. A leftist Romney with a mandate will b a terrible thing.

Been on here since 2000 and we STILL know NOTHING about him/her/it. What’s wrong, TOO GUTLESS to come out of the SHADOWS!
Romney's past actions are troubling in some important areas but he's saying the right things now. I don't know if he means them or not but he says he's pro-life, he says he is opposed to partial-birth abortion, he says he's in favor of traditional marriage, he says he's for repeal of Obamacare. If he is elected we will have to be vigilant and watch out for recidivism, but that is still better than having someone who is aggressively pro-abortion, aggressively pro-gay, aggressively anti-American in the White House.
My goal is to get this communist out of the whitehut for the sake of my children and grandchildren.
The liar thug in chief is destroying this country and has too many supporting this destruction.
At the least, with mittie, he’ll have conservatives and the media keeping his crap in check. I don’t think he’ll be able to run wild stomping on the constitution as this unAmerican presently is.
How are conservatives going to be able to keep his crap in check?
Why would a liberal media bother?
You certainly knew some things from before you were
banned in 2001.
What was that for, again?
And given your impetuous pejorativeness,
were you a RomneyBOT originally, too?
ACTUALLY I was banned in both 2000 and 2001.
It will be all over the airwaves because in the mind of the media it does not go far enough left.
As for pubs putting a clamp on their own President; you gotta be kidding. It hasn't happened in decades. On the contrary, the pubbies have a very poor track record of fiscal and social responsibility when they hold the reins of power. Just go back to 2004 to see what a Republican Congress with a Republican (not conservative) President looks like.
As for conservatives: Sure we will whine and whimper, but this candidate was selected to put conservatives and the Tea Party movement in its place - the wilderness. This election demonstrates conservatives have no effective power, and never will as long as you "hold your nose" and support a liberal GOP candidate. You may get tossed a bone, but that's it.
What you say is very true
HOWEVER
McCain /Palin were ahead in the polls as you stated until the Economic Doomsday Crisis was announced by President Bush
