>>he is on their side by fighting for legislation that grows the economy from the middle out, not the top down.<<
That doesn’t even make sense. How does one do that? Pass laws forcing employers to hire and middle class people to spend money?
When one drives over a cliff, momentum usually becomes a major part of the process.
Oh no. I have to Plouffe, but I’m low on toilet paper!
Make that two. Romney won't win here, but, if can keep Soetoro’s MA margin of victory below, say 12% (which I think he will), it's going to be a very early night for the Rats nationwide.
Side note: How many million$ of taxpayer dollar$ have been poured into the cesspool cities of Lowell and Springfield and they NEVER, EVER improve?
The economic message is powerful, but Obomacare is even more powerful. The democrats have gotten the Republicans off message.
The economy can be debated forever (and blamed on ....whatever) - Obomacare is a slam dunk!
We need to keep Obocare and it's consequences in the forefront. This issue harms the middle class of all political stripes and all incomes more than anything else.
I don't care if the states decide they want it. States are sovereign. When the feds try to push it on everyone - like homo marriage - I have a big problem with that. Most states - and the people in them - would, too.
Obomacare oppresses all parties, races, genders, and all incomes. Obomcare is a universal nightmare. We can't let this issue die.
Yep, you have all the momentum going downhill, recklessly into a brick wall....
I’d call 911 but you probably won’t survive the crash.
I sure the first mate on the Titanic thought everything was going to be ok too.
Obtained??? LOL
More like hand delivered...
Obama’s advisers set groundwork for raising taxes on the middle class.

Few of President Obamas 2008 campaign pledges were more definitive than his vow that anyone making less than $250,000 a year will not see their taxes increase by a single dime if he was elected. And he was right, very strictly speaking: Its going to be many, many, many billions of dimes.
Asked about raising taxes on the middle class on Sunday on CBSs Face the Nation, White House economist Larry Summers wouldnt repeat Mr. Obamas pre-election promise. It is never a good idea to absolutely rule things out no matter what, Mr. Summers saidexcept, apparently, when his boss is running for office. Meanwhile, on ABCs This Week, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner also slid around Mr. Obamas vow and said, We have to bring these deficits down very dramatically. And thats going to require some very hard choices.
These arent even nondenial denials. The Obama advisers are laying the groundwork for taxing the middle class while claiming the deficit made them do it.
The liberal establishment is even further along in finally admitting that Mr. Obama wasnt, er, telling the truth. A piece in the New York Times over the weekend declared in a headline that the Rich Cant Pay for Everything, Analysts Say. And it quoted Leonard Burman, a veteran of the Clinton Treasury who now runs the Brookings Tax Policy Center, as saying that This idea that everything new that government provides ought to be paid for by the top 5%, thats a basically unstable way of governing. Theyre right, but where were they during the campaign?
So much momentum, I bet even the most die hard libs won’t be holding any well-publicized townhall meetings to meet with their constituents of varying opinions.
Unfortunately, I can. Anywhere inside of Rte 495, a GOP sticker will get your car keyed (and around Springfield and Amherst/Northampton). Anywhere else, people are more sane. But, Obama will carry the heavily populated welfare pits and the deluded college areas by the 85-15 you project.
I sometimes ownder if it is something about population density that predisposes people to liberal pathologies. Years ago, some population density studies were done on rats, with very disturbing results. Once a certain density was reached, homosexual activity increased dramatically, and rats started eating their young. Ohhh... but that was just rats... could it possibly apply to 'rats?
