Romney 'not one of us'

The Hill (Washington D.C.), by Justin Sink Original Article

A new commercial from the Obama campaign targeting Ohio slams Mitt Romney for not having supported the auto bailout and declared the Republican Presidential nominee as "not one of us," as the president looks to shore up support in the crucial battleground state. The commercial features autoworkers speaking in praise of the auto bailout, and slams Romney for an editorial he penned in 2008 in which he advocates allowing the auto industry to go bankrupt.

Disgraced former CBS News anchorman Dan Rather showed up on MSNBC and CNN this week to stick up for women who stood and mangled the truth with Obama. On MSNBC, he defended Candy Crowley’s pro-Obama moderating and supported Hillary Clinton and Susan Rice on Benghazi-gate on CNN. On Wednesday’s Rachel Maddow Show, Maddow typically humored Old Dan unleashing his Ratherisms (“this race has been as hot as a burning stump”), and he slammed Republicans for “whining” about Crowley, which showed they believed they had lost the debate:

A Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate joked with the male moderator of a televised debate that he was 'prettier' than Candy Crowley, the CNN who refereed this week's presidential debate. After an intense exchange during Thursday’s Senate debate in Arizona, moderator Brahm Resnik quipped: 'Now I know how Candy Crowley felt, Jeez..' Richard Carmona, former U.S. Surgeon General, responded to the reference to Crowley's difficulties officiating between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney by saying: 'You’re prettier than her.' Resnik filled the awkward silence by laughing and saying

As recently as two weeks ago, political prognosticators were looking at polls and declaring, "If Romney would have to pull off a miracle to close the gap in national polling, he has no shot at matching the president in the electoral college." This week, with Gallup polling showing Mitt Romney with a strong national lead over President Obama, some conservatives are pointing to the Republican candidate's likely victory. The latest polls out of Wisconsin and Iowa, meanwhile, show Mr. Obama with a modest but clear lead in the two battleground states. For what it's worth,

Despite a dip in support, Barack Obama retains a narrow 46-43 percent edge over Republican challenger Mitt Romney in the Buckeye state. That’s according to a Fox News poll of Ohio likely voters released Friday. Obama topped Romney by seven percentage points in Ohio a month ago (49-42 percent). The president has lost ground among independents (down 10 points from September), women (down eight points) and voters under age 35 (down six points). Half of Ohio voters are “extremely” interested in the election. Among these most interested voters, Romney is ahead by 10 percentage

For the vast majority of this presidential election cycle, voters’ focus has been on domestic policy. But on Monday night, President Obama will be on the hot seat over his foreign policy. Obama leads Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney on foreign policy issues by a narrow margin; over the past several months, Romney has closed the gap on President Obama.

Beirut, Lebanon - A huge car bomb explosion in Beirut on Friday killed a top Lebanese security official whose investigations implicated Syria and Hezbollah in the assassination of former Lebanese prime minister Rafik al-Hariri seven years ago. The rush-hour bomb in the center of the Lebanese capital killed eight people and wounded about 80 others, heightening fears that Syria's war is spilling over into Lebanon. Among the dead was Wissam al-Hassan, the head of a Lebanese intelligence agency who had also uncovered a recent bomb plot that led to the arrest of a pro-Syrian Lebanese politician,

A landmark court case has ruled there is a link between using a mobile phone and brain tumours, paving the way for a flood of legal actions. Innocente Marcolini, 60, an Italian businessman, fell ill after using a handset at work for up to six hours every day for 12 years. Now Italy's Supreme Court in Rome has blamed his phone saying there is a "causal link" between his illness and phone use, the Sun has reported.

A first analysis of the ice that froze onto the drillbit used in last February’s landmark drilling to a pristine Antarctic lake shows no native microbes came up with the lake water, according to Sergey Bulat of Petersburg Nuclear Physics Institute (Russia). The very uppermost layer of Lake Vostok appears to be “lifeless” so far, says Bulat, but that doesn’t mean the rest of it is.

Denver — Some Colorado fans are upset after music superstar Madonna used guns during a performance. Madonna started her show Thursday night at the Pepsi Center in Denver with a gun scene, which she has used in previous performances. She was also accused of being more than three hours late to the show. People took to social media to complain about how they were offended she used guns and violence as part of her show in light of recent events in the state that included a mass shooting at a theater during a Batman movie on July 20 that left 12 people dead.

So the other morning a reader emails me a picture of a handful of women demonstrating outside the headquarters of the Ohio Republican Party – in what we expert analysts round about this point in the quadrennial election cycle like to call the critical battleground of the Buckeye State. The women each wore two giant pieces of cardboard, front and back. Ah, I thought, a timely protest.

"Vote for biblical values this November 6." That's the message from one of the most famous pastors in the U-S. In a full-page ad in major news publications, the Reverend Billy Graham is calling on voters to cast a ballot for their faith. The 93-year-old evangelical preacher met Republican Mitt Romney for the first time last week at his home in North Carolina. But he has not endorsed any candidate for president. Instead, Graham's spokesman says the ads challenge Americans on how to vote, not who to vote for.

It's Past Time to

The Obama campaign blames today’s economic doldrums on past Bush policies. But this rhetoric doesn’t square with the record. With the presidential campaign turning white hot, the decade-old “Bush tax cuts” are attracting more blame than ever for the post-Bush economy. Because one facet of Romney’s tax reform proposal is a reduction in all income tax rates, the Obama campaign has been equating it with the “failed policies of the past” (most notably the Bush tax cuts), which allegedly created the mess we’re in.

Former Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain wants employers to advise their employees about how to vote in the Nov. 6 general election. Cain, speaking to about 30 people at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Philadelphia Friday as part of his 30-day "Truth Tour," said employers must educate their workers about the presidential candidates' public policy proposals. "Because one of the reasons we had to do this truth tour is that stupid people are ruining America," Cain declared. "Some of them don't know they're stupid. But they are ruining America."

HAVANA — The rumor mill surrounding the health of Fidel Castro churned anew on Friday, despite a letter from the aging Cuban revolutionary published by state media and denials by relatives at home and in the United States that he is on death's door. Social media sites and some news organizations have reported allegations by a Venezuelan doctor that Castro, 86, had suffered a massive stroke, was in a vegetative state, and had only weeks to live, though the same doctor, Jose Rafael Marquina, has made some claims before that have not panned out.

Nancy Lack is old enough to remember the rise and fall of Hitler, so when she saw a sign in her Connecticut neighborhood that attempted to liken President Obama to the Nazi dictator, she took action. Lack, who is 80, saw the sign portraying Obama with Hitler's trademark toothbrush mustache on a table set up by supporters of fringe presidential candidate Lyndon LaRouche in downtown Hebron. She slammed on her brakes, spryly jumped out of her car and strode toward the display, where she tore down the offensive sign and snatched another two posters off the table. “I just got

Poor corporate earnings reports are pounding the stock market in a sour end to an otherwise strong week. The Dow Jones industrial average fell more than 200 points for its worst day in four months. Disappointing results from three giants of the Dow — Microsoft, General Electric and McDonald's — were to blame. The broader market fell, too. The Dow sank 205 points, or 1.5 percent, to close at 13,344 Friday. (Snip) The declines were broad. Four stocks fell for every one that rose on the New York Stock Exchange. Volume was relatively heavy at 3.8 billion shares.

During Fox News’ America Live this afternoon, Megyn Kelly‘s panel debated whether The View treated Ann Romney unfairly by asking aggressive questions, compared to the show’s “kid glove” treatment of First Lady Michelle Obama. Kelly began the segment by playing snippets from Ann Romney’s interview on the talk show in which the GOP candidate’s wife immediately faced tough questions about stem-cell research, abortion, and Mormonism. Meanwhile, President Obama and his wife were initially asked about their wedding anniversary. “I don’t think it’s that surprising that a Republican would

A number of major regional newspapers endorsed a presidential candidate on Friday, with most of the endorsements going to President Obama.The Denver Post, The Tampa Bay Times and The Salt Lake Tribune all endorsed him, same as they did in 2008. But The Orlando Sentinel broke from its 2008 endorsement of Obama and picked Mitt Romney for president this time. The most surprising was the Tribune's endorsement of Obama, given Romney's ties to Utah and its heavily-Mormon population.

After a lifetime of voting for and supporting Democrats — and even declining appointment to the U.S. Senate from a Democratic governor — Lee Iacocca Thursday endorsed Republican Mitt Romney for president. The blessings of the onetime Chrysler chairman are expected to help Romney in two highly competitive states: Pennsylvania, where the 88-year-old Iacocca was born and raised and is still widely respected, and in Michigan, where Iacocca rose to become a major figure in the auto industry and won international praise for cobbling together the government-backed loans that saved Chrysler in 1980.

Washington - President Barack Obama has presided over a heyday for the gun industry despite predictions by the National Rifle Association four years ago that he would be the ‘‘most anti-gun president in American history.’’ Gun buyers fear that Obama wants to restrict their purchases, especially if he were re-elected. An analysis by The Associated Press of data tracking the health of the gun industry shows that sales are on the rise, so much that some gun manufacturers can’t make enough guns fast enough. Major gun company stock prices are up. (Snip) ‘‘The driver is President Obama. He’s the best

Is Obama buying the election

With the unprecedented explosion of means-tested, welfare-related entitlements, does Team Obama think it can buy the election? It’s a cynical question. But I wouldn’t put it past that cynical bunch. Remember Harry Hopkins, Franklin Roosevelt’s close aid? It was Hopkins who argued tax and tax, spend and spend, elect and elect. Sound familiar? And if I’m not mistaken, the high-tax, anti-rich, big-spending, redistributionist FDR is one of Barack Obama’s idols. So let’s take a look at some of the recent budget-explosion data points:

It gets picked up and her over-protective bulldogs go insane. We were absolutely talking about women and work life balance when she made the whining comment.”
