“I don’t people will think Romney is attacking Obama hard enough unless he calls Obama the N word”

Its frustrating to have to watch Obama being coddled by the media day after day, and not have the feelings of just wanting to take the gloves off, but Romney has to be careful how he portrays Obama, don’t want to give any reason to make people feel sorry for Obama because of attacks.

Romney just has to keep hammering the “Lack of leadership”

The debates haven’t even happened yet. These will be huge in swinging the 2%-3% needed to win the election, (no teleprompters allowed).

I trust you remember who the moderators will be at those debates. They will make Romney look like a fool, and 0 look like a god.

Know what you mean. Lately...for I guess the last 6 months or so...my best friend and me—(whom BOTH of us “cried on each others shoulders”, in Nov. of 08.. and it brought us closer together...), have NOT done much political talking. This is NOT “the norm “for us, either... Thursday...I found out why. She is now saying things that make me fear she is SERIOUSLY thinking about voting for OBAMA!! (he has some good idead about energy..Paul Ryan is young and inexperienced...etc.)

If that happens....it will make it VERY difficult for us to EVER discuss ANYTHING about politics, world affairs the economy or much of ANYTHING again——as she will be COMPLICIT in the destruction of the country!!

And to think...only about 6 months or so ago...BOTH of us were still discussing the possibility of O being the Antichrist....guess the world, with all of it’s “flashy “tinsel and bows”—is MORE important that standing up for morality and principle.....

“When the audience had a mixed response, he immediately blamed both sides.”

Christie shouldn’t be a spokesman/surrogate for Romney. He needs to shut up and go to weight watchers. The polls in New Jersey ref Romney prove it.
