A waste of time for Obama.
He has trashed Romney to the degree that the Obama faithful will never accept any of Romney´s ideas, and no one who voted for Romney gives a hoot for anything Obama mutters.

There are people on this Earth who have absolutely no redeeming qualities. Obama is one of those. Adds nothing, consumes and destroys everything he touches. The world will be a better place when he is gone.

Hmmm.. it must have dawned on our perfect President that he has absolutely no idea how to help the economy.
And he even had the nerve the other day to suggest that he would like to meet with Romney at the White House to talk over his ideas.
Romney should tell him that Obama convinced most of the American voters that Romney was evil...and therefore Obama should do it alone for after all Obama claimed to have a better idea to tax "millionaires and billionaires."
Oh wait... Obama now says the tax should be on those earning more than $250,000.
Now... that of course means Obama lied to the American people during the campaign...but hey... did you hear Obama sing..and he plays basketball?

If presidential politics ever involved time travel, President Obama might be in a little trouble. If an election between Ronald Reagan and Barack Obama were held today, 58% would vote for Reagan over Obama, according to a survey of 1,000 Americans age 18 and older conducted by Kelton Research for the National Geographic Channel. Though when the field is narrowed to people ages 18-34 -- those either too young to have known Reagan as president or too young to remember much -- the gap shrinks to 51% in favor of Reagan.

With all due respect to Mother Jones´s conversation-leaker-in-chief David Corn, the recordings published today of a conversation between Sen. Mitch McConnell and some consultants disparaging Ashley Judd is not news. It´s the sausage being made. We´ve got full background here, but the toplines are this: Corn got hold of a conversation apparently recorded during a presentation by consultants to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell´s reelection campaign. The consultants were opposition researchers, hired by the campaign to ferret out damaging information about actress Ashley Judd, who at one point considered running against McConnell.

As he continues guiding the Senate toward eventual consideration of proposals to curb gun violence, Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) invoked his father’s suicide Tuesday as he once again pleaded with Republicans not to block legislation under consideration. During his morning remarks on the Senate floor, Reid recalled receiving a 12-gauge shotgun ordered from a Sears catalog for his 12th birthday and made reference to incidents of gun violence in his home state of Nevada, including the 2010 shooting at a Las Vegas federal building. He also noted that as a young state legislator, he sponsored a bill

A homeless man, oblivious to President Obama’s passing motorcade, took BB gun practice in the nearby woods and refused to drop his weapon when confronted by Connecticut cops, officials said today. Obama was speaking yesterday at the University of Hartford when police, stationed along the president’s route to Bradley International Airport, heard noises coming from a nearby wooded area around 5:50 p.m., said Bloomfield police Capt. Stephen Hajdasz. A detective from the neighboring town of Simsbury ordered the man — identified as 27-year-old Joseph Stravinskas — to drop what appeared to be a rifle, according to Hajdasz.

Sherry West, who is a witness in the murder trial against her former boss Dr. Kermit Gosnell, said that when the tiny ´specimen´ screamed ´it sounded like a little alien´. West is testifying in the case under a deal with prosecutors after she pleaded guilty to third-degree murder involving the death of a 41-year-old woman at the clinic.

WASHINGTON —A liberal grassroots organization is running ads featuring the face of Republican Sen. Ted Cruz as it urges Americans to tell their senators to support universal background checks for gun buyers. Organizing for Action — President Barack Obama’s re-election-campaign-turned-nonprofit — started running its online ads on Facebook and in search engines today. More than nine out of 10 Americans support universal background checks, according to a recent poll by Quinnipac University. The ads come as Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., looks to move a gun-control bill to the Senate floor for a vote.

Beginning a week of high pressure on gun control, the White House on Monday accused some Republican senators of cowardice for planning to filibuster gun legislation without allowing the full Senate to vote on President Obama’s initiatives. “If they oppose this legislation, have the courage to say so on the floor and vote no,” said White House press secretary Jay Carney. “Don’t block it. Don’t hide behind a procedural action to prevent a vote. That’s the wrong thing to do, and that’s how the president clearly feels.”

However, any deal could be derailed by the looming threat of a Republican filibuster involving Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. With Cruz standing proudly in the way of any gun legislation, Democrats are trying to make him pay a political price — and even a couple of high-profile Republicans are questioning his tactics.

The men had already pleaded no contest in January to one felony count each of risk of injury to a minor — a reduction from even more serious charges related to sexual assault....
