Hall of Fame quarterback John Elway endorsed Mitt Romney ahead of Wednesday's presidential debate in Colorado.

“Governor Romney is a proven leader with the experience and background to turn around our struggling economy,” Elway said in a statement. “In these tough economic times, we need a president who understands how to get America working again – by standing on the side of taxpayers and small-business owners who do the real job creating. I am endorsing Governor Romney and Congressman Ryan for President and Vice President because I know having the courage to make decisions and tackle challenges is what leads to results and real change. America needs a comeback team – Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan are that team.”

My statement would be more like...

President Obama is a proven communist jackass who hates this country and I will support anyone who breaths and who can puts his hand over his heart during the pledge of allegiance.

I'm not sure how well this goes over in Ohio. Remember "The Drive" and "The Fumble"....

Well starting October, I hope Romney takes the pig skin down the field 98 yards and can spike the ball in Obama’s face.

You are right. Elway is a folk hero in CO, just like Nolan Ryan is here in Texas. If TX was a battleground state, I know he would be stumping to beat Obama too.

Your right.....Undoubtedly guided and approved by the Romney campaign gurus, Elway's trite, milquetoast statement reads like it was written by an 18 year-old political science 101 major.

Sheesh!

Don’t think that in Ohio, people are a bit more concerned about keeping their heads above water in regards to the economy and all of its related issues than to what you would call “the drive” and “the fumble” ?

It was actually a joke. I thought it was pretty obvious. Anyone in Ohio that would pull the lever for the President concerning football that happened almost 30 years ago is a moron and therefore would probably be voting for Obama anyways.
