“Blacks will vote for Romney and say they voted for BO.”

I actually believe that; I work with a black woman who has grown children (which many parents feel financially as they lose the related deductions), and she describes how she is not only voting for Romney, but volunteering for him as well (in Newark, NJ!). She describes how she has to hide those sentiments from other blacks in our company, and has a small number of like-minded friends that agree with her politically but also know they must keep it on the “down-low”. Urban blacks are as tolerant of political dissent as Islam is of religious dissent; it is creepy to see it in action (and I’ve seen it at my previous job as well).

Some may vote for Romney, but I think a large number may just sit it out; they have no light at the end of the tunnel if Obama wins. They have suffered as everyone else has, and they are extremely disillusioned; they bought the crap that this is Bush’s fault, but as Obama drags out his 2008 speeches again they realize they’ve been had.

This is good news for Romney.

I am not going to lie, I am CONCERNED about the financial issues of the campaign, as Obama raised more money in August.

Romney is spending too much money despite being SEVERELY overspent in ads. He needs to run more ads. That is critical.

Unemployment rates rose in more than half of U.S. states last month, the latest evidence that hiring remains tepid across the country.

Tepid? TEPID? I hope that voter turnout for Ibama is just as abysmally tepid.

We go “crazy” because according to polls a majority of people no longer care if they can get a job anymore.
I guess they figure the Government can give them other people’s money.
