It's Over
American Thinker ^ | September 28, 2012 | William L. Gensert

Give up -- Barack Obama has won.  With the election only weeks away, it is clear from recent swing state polling that Mitt Romney has lost this election.  According to the Quinnipiac numbers, in the battleground states of Ohio, Florida, and Pennsylvania, the president is ahead by 10%, 9% and 12%, respectively.

Romney can't win.  Just ask any journalist or newscasters.  He is toast -- stick a fork in him.

Bull...

If anything, the closer we get to Election Day, the more apparent it is that Obama is not only losing, but losing big.  The Obama campaign, and by "campaign" I mean members of the media and polling organizations, is trying to convince prospective Romney voters to believe that all is lost -- in which case, they hope, we will stay home.

But just because they say so, that doesn't make it true.

Everyone knew from the outset that Obama, with his sad record of continuous failure on almost every front, was going to air out his inner bitterness and envy, and campaign negatively.  But did anyone suspect that his sole hope for victory would rest on trying to suppress the vote of his opponent with naked media bias and polling -- most of which assumes a higher Democrat turnout than in 2008, when the electorate, many Republicans included, swallowed whole Obama's vision of "hope and change"?

Same reason I am voting for this new gal who is running for the school board. She is slightly leftish but she is new and younger> The present board is awful with a billion in unneeded construction and to keep their construction buddies (campaign contributors) happy.`

"The entire republican party, including Romney and Ryan, are willing participants in the greatest hoax, and traitors to their sworn oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America."

It's difficult to take issue with any of your observations in light of what I've learned in the year and a half I've spent researching the "Obama" narrative.

My hope, slim as it is, is that R&R specifically, and R's more generally will more vociferously seek to expose the truth of the "Obama" deception once Barky and his coterie of villains no longer wield the awesome power of the Executive.

"Willing participants" is perhaps a too-broad term, however. I am right now dealing with a situation where a family member is finally being treated for Stage-4 cancer when they could have perhaps nipped the problem in the bud early on, but hid their condition for over two years because of their fear of the fallout. Should I then refuse to help them attempt to recover their health, due to their unwillingness to face the gravity of their situation heretofore?

Romney and Ryan may be in denial regarding the severity of the cancer that is the illegitimacy of the "Obama" pResidency, but I have cast my vote for their team for the same reason I would treat the cancer-ridden, yet critically-injured victim of a horrific car crash: You can't treat the cancer if you fail to stop (or at least slow) the bleeding resulting from the wreck in the first place.

There are now 127 at $2.17. LOL I signed up to buy but waiting on ID verification, then it seems it takes 4 days for them to process a wire AFTER they process the ID verification.

I wonder, does observation of widespread poll-rigging and a sycophantic Fourth Estate cum Fifth Column qualify as a nut-job conspiracy theory?

I'm wondering the same thing.

it anyone wants to screw with the media, just tivo/dvr glen beck’s channel 212. They keep track of what is recorded. If the viewership records are manipulated that way, it will drive the MSM nuts.

(you don’t have to watch, just record.)

Looks like minimum bid for Romney is $223, so one has to buy at least $223 (100 shares) worth of Romney just to enter. If Romney wins, what would that WIN? That doesn't pay 55.9 to 1, does it?

No, not 55.9 to 1 (I only wish) it's something less than 5 to 1. These shares will close after the election at either $10 per share or $0 per share. So after the election, 100 Romney shares, purchased now for $223, would be worth $1,000 if he wins, or 0 if he doesn't.

Ironically, this strategery is doomed to backfire. Ubanga voters will become complacent and be far more likely to stay home than "dump Ubanga" voters.

“media conglomerates all have a vested interest in promoting readership and viewership in this election season”

I agree that this is a major factor in the media strategy.


If they were primarily concerned with reader/viewership, they’d change their content. No, their primary concern is pushing the leftist/commie/Dem agenda. They are all losing readers/viewers and laying off people. They are ideology driven, with profit lower down on the list.
