Cheer Up: Four Reasons Why Obama May Lose Big in November

“I sense a seething hatred for all policies Obama from real citizens that actually matter.”

If that hatred does get all citizens out to vote then their might be a change in the White House, be it slight.

However, it is much easier to go to the polls once every four years than to have to work, pay bills, fill out tax forms, etc. Remember the stampedes at Walmart the day after Thanksgiving?

You know what is interesting, and something that we can’t forget. All throughout 2010, the polls and turnout models (including the “intensity factor”) suggested that the GOP was going to blowout the dems in the election. Of course for all of us here and elsewhere, that is, all the junkies who follow this closely, we were thinking things like “don’t jinx it” or “don’t talk too much about it lest the dems ramp up their turnout machine!”. That sort of thing.

And in the end, the turnout models that predicted the dems would get shellacked were spot on.

So I think we all have to remember that FR doesn’t represent in any respect whatsoever the voting public.

All of the data right now that can be ascertained at this moment, suggest that obama is going to lose and lose big.

May it be so.

“votes locked up, from states such as California, New York, the New England states”

Do you think Rom has a chance to win Massachusetts?

I doubt Maine, New Hampshire will be going for ZERO again. CT is only 51% Obama in the poll, so I won’t put CT in ZERO’s camp.

These people do not think beyond the next recharge of their EBT and the moment at hand... there are a few that are smart and lazy and greedy, but they are far outnumbered by sloths who’d rather sit on their asses and collect money from someone else......if there isn’t a payday-right-now for them and it requires them to make an effort on their own, they’ll lay in bed until after noon.

Mr. Romney has few topics about which he can now speak. One by one, the substantive topics for debate are disappearing, deemed too problematic for the Romney campaign to address. Business acumen, experience as governor, US Olympics, Romney budget, women’s issues, immigration reform, all toxic. Mr. Romney is reduced to dragging out the birther baggage to pad his stump speeches and give his base a few crumbs. And to call attention away from his flip-flopping on all important issues.

But what is the single issue on which Mr. Romney has never flip-flopped? He stands doggedly firm on never, under any circumstances, releasing his tax returns.

Why?

It is not just liberals who want to see Romney’s tax returns.
It is 63% of American voters who do.

The longer Mr. Romney delays, the more suspicious it appears.

Obama released 8 years of tax returns
GW Bush 10 years
Clinton 12 years
GHW Bush 14 years
George Romney 12 years.

What is there to hide?
Release the tax returns, Mr. Romney.

I showed him tht he could do that & save considerable money.

The first year I worked for him, I saved him more money that the money he paid me as an outside contractor.

Wow. You must’ve been a real boon to that business. Did you get to see how his life changed?

[combat_boots]

Well, let's add spelling to the list, then. Second occurrence: Someone paid for that sign.

[sgtyork]

Hey look! An Obama troll!

[Lazamataz]

In spite of all the problems for Obama, he’s got at least 200 electoral votes locked up, from states such as California, New York, the New England states, Illinois, etc.

You know, there's something basically wrong about that.

Obama's performance should not net him ONE electoral vote.

[PA Engineer]

IBTZ!

[nascarnation]

My own sense is that the Obama internals are frightful

Here in Indiana, Baraq won very narrowly in 08. All the local polls show him -12 to -15 this year. They aren't even bothering to campaign, just private fundraisers to get $$ to spend other places.

You should start a blog!

I used to write speeches for a Black Union National Delegate, a mind game for me, I thought she was a nice kid.

I used to ask her how do you want it to sound and I would play the inflexion game, MLK, Black Baptist Preacher, Outraged Feminist, I had them all down. It was a hoot, she was preaching to the choir so I didn't care.

As a lilly white English, Scots Irish Consevitive it was a blast.

Cleanup in aisle 27.

[exit82]

Wow, you joined today just to post a request for Mitt’s tax returns?

Tell your boss over at the DNC that we want to see Obama’s college records, and his original Social Security application, as well as the original, not photoshopped, long form birth certificate.

Tax returns are a red herring. If Romney hadn’t paid up, the IRS under little Timmy Geithner would have been after him.

now run along back to DU.

[PA Engineer]

Now that is funny. That is what scares me about “true believers” in politics.

...”No one disputes President Obama’s charisma, personal charm and rhetorical skill”....

I dispute all three of those characteristics applied to Obama. I dispute them vehemently, angrily. He is none of those - he is a small, petty, angry, narcissistic fraud who has been shepherded through life via Affirmative Action preferences based on having 50% more melanin in his skin. A comparably skilled Caucasian man would never have reached such heights.

While I agree with your assessment, I think we should note that the first line above appears to be one of those throwaway platitudes designed to pre-empt the charge of bias on the part of the writer.

In other words, while the author did say it, there is no real reason to think that he himself actually believes it.

After all, the article would have been subject to being labeled a "hit piece" if the author had instead said, "Obama is a singularly unaccomplished and ill-informed individual with massive personality defects, who brings no discernible skill to the office of the Presidency other than the ability to read a TelePrompter passably."

That would have been more honest, of course, but it would have offended some sensibilities. ;-)
