I heard MI and PA and this may be why...the calm before the storm.

Best to echo what people remember as the “give ‘em hell, Harry” campaign. Humor with an edge, relentless campaigning. That’s not really how Truman’s campaign went, but that’s how people remember it, and that’s what counts.

As long as they are bombing maybe they could take out that cat house red couch in the White Hut map room that the Kenyans were lounging on for the Parade photo shots. That thing sets high fashion back a couple decades.

I know Newt is over qualified for the job but wouldn’t it be something if Newt was Romney’s press secretary. I love the way he hammers the media.

When you have an incumbent with as weak a record as this one, negative advertising is the most effective tool. I hope at least half of the Romney war chest is reserved for negative ads most of it for the last 4 weeks before the election

Guess you didn't get the message
Genius Rove said this is a NO NO

Eighth Air Force is over the target and loaded for bear

The fighter group of which is led by Mitt "Stormin` Mormon" Romney and his wingman Paul "the Flyin` Lion" Ryan!

I’m waiting for Romney to pour it on. Especially in Ohio and Fl. Here in NC, I’m getting non stop Obama Ads on TV. Romney is advertising on Pandora on my mobile phone though. Pretty unique.

I loved the way Newt took Thomas Friedman to school on last Sunday’s MTP.

do you want to know something hilarious...but sad? I have a friend who pretends to be intellectual who told me the anti-God and anti-Israel stuff doesn’t matter. He insists the only winning argument Republicans have is the “economy”.

Pathetic. And this guy once served in the armed forces.

Romney may not make hay of the Democrat party’s hatred of Jews and their anti-God sentiment...but the Super PACs sure can do it...and I think it will be effective.

He also needs the “sunny optimism” of Reagan...a “We can do this if we let people achieve!” message.

I think he has that...he has to say it louder, though.

Isn’t the economy the most important thing right now..so yeah that SHOULD be the winning argument, the economy flat out sucks..but to Commies, they want to destroy the United States economy, because turning America into their Communist Utopian Society is what they have wanted for what, 100 years now, this is their chance to do it under Obama

Romney has been holding his fire and hoarding his cash. A counterattack is imminent.

All Romney has to do is make 1 Ad showing the Dems booing God and Israel, show it in every single swing state, cheapest and most effective ad ever made

After showing the three tries, with the "no" votes as least as loud as the "ayes," they should show the picture of the teleprompter telling the MC on stage "In the opinion of the chair, the ayes have the 2/3 majority."

It would show the anti-religion, anti-Semitic leanings of the party, and then its hypocrisy and cynicism even towards its own delegates.
