Obama is not a nice guy, he’s a thinskinned narcissistic communist leaning pathological liar. He is all for himself and to heck with anyone who stands in his way. He has been a persistant campaigner, vacationer, and golfer while our troops continue to die on his watch.

He isn’t stupid though. He got a boatload of jackasses to vote for him. He is as corrupt as they come, and if re-elected this nation is done.

It has not been an easy decision but I have prayed about this, and I have decided to vote Romney/Ryan.

The GOP falls on its back for the sheriff: "Vot a nice guy." Lili ......... `Falling in love again, love again, what am I to do, I can't help it .... ' `He shot an arrow into my heart!'

“I think the fact that Obama’s campaign is running out of money is an important story.”

I doubt there is any truth to the claim Obama’s campaign is running out of money. Soros, Buffet and others will cough up at the appropriate time. This is just part of the PR game - poor President Obama being outspent by the ultra-wealthy evil capitalist Romney. This is noise for consumption by the liberal base and those sympathetic to the class warfare game.

My bet is Obama’s campaign will borrow whatever it needs from the big Wall Street banks while at the same time poor mouthing by filing lower contribution numbers to the FEC. If he loses, his campaign fund declares bankruptcy and stiffs the banks. If he wins, someone quietly goes around to the banks and suggests they write off the loans. After all, Obama will be regulating them if he wins. This is Chicago politics.

In the end Obama will outspend Romney and his campaign will benefit from both media spending and ground organization by unions, leftwing non-profits, the civil rights lobby, and leftist super PACs. Plus he’ll enjoy the daily propaganda spin from the mainstream media.

In the end it won’t matter how much Romney spends if he doesn’t have a winning message. Hopefully it is more than “Obama’s a nice guy but not a very good President.”

On the face of it this seems very aggravating, but is probably the right call.

As Obama descends into bitter, desperate melt-downs, he is going to come across as increasingly irrational and mean-spirited. And the more Romney can remain the smiling, jovial candidate the more he will benefit from voters who are turned-off.

Yes,for those who are determined to believe he is a nice guy, you can get their ear with agreement and then reframe “nice guy” to not be a leader quality. For example, lots of people are very, very “nice” who would not be good at leading the country. Your neighbor is nice, your grandma is nice, and that is all well and good.
And they could also play off of his “niceness” to our enemies and his “nice” childish belief that we can simply get rid of most of our defenses because we just need to be “nice” and the mean countries will come around. It will be easier to change the way “nice” is viewed than to try to say Obama is mean perhaps. Pat him on the head and call him nice and cute, and then bring in an adult to actually get on with the running of things and the stopping of finger pointing. The message can be that, it is nice that he is nice, but we are not having a contest to decide who is the “nicest” person in the country. Niceness is not always what is needed in crises. Sometimes you want your side to have Patton.

They sure stuck it to Obama like a Southern lady would.

He’s a good father, good husband, and a good golfer, thanks to lots of practice...
