In effect, it is also showing how poorly Our Dear Reader is acting as President, always playing defense.

It also gives a good idea of how Mitt will act, once he's sworn in...

Trucker Observation: Teamsters will vote in mass for Romney & Ryan. Jimmy Hoffa Jr. can go straight to hell joining other union bosses who stole from our pension funds.

Whoever ran against Obama would be painted as Bush. The media is hostile and deceptive and we have an overwhelmingly uninformed electorate.

I'm at odds with a few family members over Obama. Anybody else experiencing this? So be it.

#3, I am too. My sister is a Kool Aid drinker and will not accept any facts when pointed out the actual truth of what is going on. She just says it's all lies and quotes from the Daily Kos and the Obama media as if it's gospel. There is just no reaching her. I avoid talking to her now. I understand how the Civil War took place and can see similarities these days. It's awful.

#3, I have certain over-educated yet under-intelligent ''friends'' and relatives on Facebook. They are very vocal, and our side is not as vocal. For the most part, they are ignored. I hide them so I don't get all p'd off, but every once in a while look at their page to see what they are saying. Their self-righteous smugness is annoying. I think the worst part is they think everyone thinks like they do. Meanwhile, we just shake our heads and wonder what happened to them to make them so ignernt. (I think it was college!)

This is the post I have been looking for. Thank you, OP.

President Romney. Say it again and again. When discussing Romney with your friends and political antagonists, always refer to him as President Romney.

Concerned about the polls? Internalize all of the arguments out there which show that they're biased, frequently wrong, and generally meaningless. Note carefully who is hyping polls...the media. Ignore the polls and the leftist media. Good for your mental health.

And now for the most important issue. Romney seems not to be campaigning (well, aggressively, like he wants to win, to Peggy Noonan's liking, to my liking. Choose one.)

Relax, my dear friends. All hell is about to break loose! Romney will come off the Wednesday night debate like a fully-armed F-18 off a carrier's catapult. He will thoroughly embarrass the Kenyan in front of the eyes and ears of the nation...without being filtered and contaminated by the media.

Why has Romney been so quiet? Two reasons. The most important is that if he doesn't give the media anything to turn into a 'gaffe' and run with for a week, they might have to report on the news Obama is making...which is all bad. [When your opponent is self-destructing....]

The second is that whatever he says or does, the media and the rest of the Democrat party will jump on it. For example, "he paid too much in taxes"?!

Be cool. Brag to your friends about the coming landslide for PRESIDENT ROMNEY.

Then get out there to be a part of its happening.

We are all living in Obama`s economy. This is as good as it gets.

Romney/Ryan 2012

Thanks #6
I remember before the smears started Romney was up over Obama 3-5 pts

It is unfortunate to see Romney Ryan are campaigning hard from the photos on Facebook but all we get is gaffe coverage. I've been down about the viciousness. Sorry for the double post. I'm betting on America.

I take solace in the anecdotal evidence that I have only seen 1 0dumbo yard sign here in DE, and maybe two bumper stickers.

Let's accept the premise that Romney is already the incumbent. If so, ought he not behave/speak more forcefully? Guessing here is that there is too much fear in Romney and the Dems/MSM sense it, which is why they abuse and slander him. Remember the Roman adage; "Let them hate, as long as they fear".

I actually could not believe the beginning of Meet the Press today when the Moron said basically this Race is over. He then put up Polls that shows Romney losing in EVERY swing state by at least 5 points. I believe it was a NBC Poll..surprise, surprise.

I then watched ABC's This Week. Two things jumped out at me that should DEFINITELY be in the next day's campaign ads. First..talking about the poor economy, Georgie said Do you just think the American people have accepted this as the NEW NORM. Then the Politico Babe chimed in and agreed with him. NO! NO! NO! This is NOT the new Norm. The second thing that happened was someone asked if Obama should be nervous about debating Romney and Howard Dean said "HE killed Osama..why should he worry about debating Romney"...NEW AD! Guess what folks..OBAMA did not kill Osama..the Navy Seals did the job! Aaarrrgghh! I want to pull my hair out today!

My biggest fear from the debates is that Romney will accept the premise of the question from the debate moderators.

The treatment of the question was a strength of Gingrich. If Romney fails to challenge the moderator, perhaps less than he challenges the lies of Obama, he will not move.

Romney has two opponents, the media and the incumbent. He must address them both.

Can't believe there are so many masochists that actually would subject themselves to the Sunday talk shows. Hell, I can't even stand Hannity's radio show with all of his lib "friends" and callers and so-called debates [screaming sessions]. It's neither entertaining nor enlightening to expose oneself to this nonsense.

#3 we are experiencing the same thing from a few family members. The level of venom has astounded me.

Poster 13, I, too, am afraid Romney will be respectful of the moderator's questions and not deviate. That's what he needs to do in order to rebut the Liar in Chief. He will get the softballs thrown at him.

Poster 14, I agree with you. I'm tired of the polls, the talking heads who think they have all the answers and just want this to be over with Romney and Ryan as our new and intelligent representatives of the American people in the WH. Not too much to ask. 4 more years of this weak administration will ruin the country. Remember what he told Putin once he was re-elected!

I'm with #6.

Eagles Up. Elect Romney/Ryan 2012.

I also love the idea of referring to Mitt as the next president in all casual conversation. Drive 'em crazy.
