But Akins used the term ‘legimate rape’ so all is lost!
I see Romney will be nominated on Monday. Great! Then he can access his $$ to fight back.
Staying on the abortion issue distracts from the more important issues at hand like the economy, Obamacare, the countless lies he has told and promises that he’s broken, the laws he has put on the books that infringe on Constitutional rights, the new technologies and events that have surfaced that will keep him in power (new vehicle mounted heat ray guns for population control, lightning deflection control devices, the new NSA spy station in Utah that will most certainly be used to spy on citizens, over 2500 APCs that Homeland Security has acquired, huge amounts of ammunition that has recently been acquired, etc...), the divisive atmosphere that he has created, etc...
The sooner that Romney wakes up and realizes he has been distracted, led down a rabbit hole and put on the defensive the better. They say Howard Stern is the king of media but he is nothing compared to The Great One.
Most media support socialism and communism. they are just to stupid to know it.
I just can’t see anything here that looks like a ‘campaign’, in the political sense, at least - with open debate over ideas, ideal, or ideologies (or at least ‘lip service’ to these ends)..
It more resembles a military/revolutionary ‘campaign’ with a ‘divide and conquer’ strategy entailing propaganda, personal destruction of adversaries, and whatever illegitimate tactics feed their ends...
The Pubbies are, of course, bringing marshmallows to a gun fight...
I will probably get boo’d here, but I am just telling you all what I see from my vantage point. I was at a Republican Executive Meetining last night. What you do not see is the ground game going on. Romney and the County RNC’s are very organized. We have had boots on the ground for 3 mos. now, knocking on doors, taking Precinct by Precinct talking to folks. Romney Campaign gave a victory center in the middle of Polk County with 20 phone banks. This center is manned by the local Republican groups. VOLUNTEERS. We are always number 1-3 in the state making phone calls every day! People, the true facts are these, it is a ground game. When we started to get out the registration drive door by door, Obama’s crew went to the Black Churches and spoke and registered them. Meeting our registrations 2-1 at one point. 2- it will be early voting and absentee ballots that wins this thing. Proof? Our primaries. 47% were early and absentee voting. 3- you must get off your asses and stop complaining. Change one mind that is iffy. Bring someone to the polls. If you know an elderly person, help them get an absentee ballot. We only have 74 days and cut that for early voting.
We were told last night that we have to work harder on the 1-4 corridor to make up for South Florida which will be lost to us. Can’t fight it. DWS and her crowd of losers are tough fight down there. That means that everybody will count down there. This must be treated like a military mission and nothing more. Get going!!! Stop complaining and put blinders on! Please, the country truely is hanging in the balance.
Don’t agree with me, it’s ok. But, seriously we are all on this site for the same reason truth be told. We love God, we love our families, and we love our country. God gave us this gift, he gave us family and love. He gave us this wonderful Country. Please help us take the steps to take it back. We can make a change to the Right. We need everybody’s help though. I will not fight anyone on this site over semantics today. I know Romney isn’t the best, but he is what we have. The down ticket needs us all too!
God Bless you.
I believe there are so many people who despise Obama that he doesn't stand a chance this November. Paul Ryan simply makes sure that Conservatives will not only crawl over broken glass to get to the polls, but they'll drag a few friends with them to crawl over that broken glass with them as well.
The Akin thing will soon be forgotten.
The purposeful non-vetting of Obama and his very controversial and shaky background is a legacy that should forever tarnish these partisans in journalist clothing.
As we slip into the darkness we can primarily blame not Liberals and Leftists; not even big government statists, but rather the media talking heads, Hollywood superstars, and the rest that have led the rank and file Americans down the propaganda path all these many years.
Yep. Rush sure survived Fluke. In the end, it was his sponsors who lost.
Someone needs to run ad ad negating EVERYTHING on this ad....it was FRIGHTENING. SEIU is DISGUSTING.
Not if Akin stays in.
I don’t think the distractions being thrown out there by Obama are working, and his campaign seems to know it. Even though fragments of the media are starting to turn on him (only because their blind support had become a point of derision), I will never forgive them for foisting a Muslim Communist on us for president.
They created a country ruled by sexual deviants, unassimilated multi-generationally dependent ethnic minorities, and illegal aliens; the damage will last for decades if not forever.
Call me cynical, but it looks as though the media will develop a spine just in time to ask Romney the “tough” questions.
I know Ann. The Union Thugs are out in force all over the Tampa Bay area as we speak. They are pushing their message. Romney campaign has spent their money on manning the campaign headquarters in important demographics. His money will not be let loose until he is declared next Thursday. Then it begins again with ads. He has a war chest ready.
We still need boots on ground. If you know elderly folks, talk to them and help them get to polls or absentee.
I understand the frustration, as I expierence it as well. Just saying we need everyone’s help. By the way, you have a great 912 group in Sarasota and your REC is an active one from what I hear. If you are not involved get involved.
Well said.
Yesterday was a good day for me as I signed up 4 young people to vote for Romney.
Two are still in college and they committed to each getting 2 more of their friends to vote for Romney.
Many young folks are tired of obama's lies, whines and plain bullshit.
Wht is REC and 912?

Or won’t admit it. I have noticed that there are many who will gleefully preach the socialist gospel but cannot admit that it is socialism. They go nuts if you call it what it is.
They are growing though, many of them will admit to being liberals or progressives now, just a few years ago they called themselves moderates or even conservatives while preaching socialism.
And the first sign is disarray, a lack of cohesiveness in the message. The media is part of the Democrat Party message machine. In addition to the three "journalists" mentioned above, we could add Anderson Cooper's dismantling of Wasserman-Schultz yesterday.
The question is: why would the media begin to jump ship? Is it because they are afraid they'll lose credibility? Not a chance. The media know they serve to prop up liberals and liberal tenets for those who need the constant affirmation just to maintain their warped world-view.
No, the reason the media is beginning to turn on Obama is that they realize that their beloved Democratic Party could go down with him.
The media's beginning to see the big picture, and it ain't pretty for the party.
It's either back Obama and cause the whole ship to sink, or put the captain out to sea.
