Southern Whites troubled by Romney's wealth and religion

Romney will take Florida, seniors are not as stupid as you and obama think they are. And get over the race crap. It has nothing to do with race except to you libs who refuse to accept that the first black president is a failure. Its his policies and his beliefs that are the problem, not his skin color.

the democrat party is the most racist party in this election cycle.

I hate Obama because of his policies and beliefs.....the fact that he's black is just a bonus ;) (and a very big J/K) :lamo

Obama is up by 1 point in Florida. Considering that registered dems outnumber reps by 5% points in Florida one would have to assume that Obama is in trouble there.

Obama is 7pts ahead in Florida among likely voters. That's all their is to consider.


You can parse it anyway you want though.


It won't help Team Romney to stop crapping their pants at this point.


But the American media and advertising industry appreciates the stimulus, Mitt.

I'm not parsing it. Real Clear Politics is. They have a much better reputation for honesty than NBC.
 
Isn't Obama also very wealthy? I don't see why Romney's money is highlighted so often or used to vilify him.

apparently since Obama only has 12-15 MILLION dollars in the bank, he is somehow more in touch with the guys who have no money in the bank than is Romney who has 250 million.


stupid argument. 10 million or 10 billion, neither one is "in touch" with the guy who works for minimum wage or the guy who makes 50K.

I thought that was Romney's strong hold.

Not any more. Virginia is very purple now. Very blue in the north, close to Washington, and very red elsewhere. Virginia is a true battleground state, which either side could take. Obama is ahead in the polls right now, but that could change, depending on the outcome of the debates.

no one is going to take away medicare. The romney/ryan plan preserves medicare, medicaid, and social security. There would be no change for anyone over 54. For those 54 and under, they would have a choice--traditional social security and medicare or another plan chosen by them and funded by a govt voucher. CHOICES, how awful!

Those 54 or under only get a choice between a govt. plan that offers them a fixed payment, regardless of their past income, or a private plan.

But the details are irrelevant. Conservative seniors are too dumb to learn about them or even want to learn. All Obama has to to is tell them that Ryan planned to privatize Medicare and voila, they'll vote for Obama in droves.

and for the record--southern whites are much more troubled by obama's incompetence and failures than they are about Romney's wealth.

Let me correct that for you:

and for the record--southern whites are much more troubled by what FoxNews and Rush Limbaugh told them about Obama then they are about Romney's wealth

As volatile as the world is, the debates may be only one factor.

it's a law of nature.. for every million dollar richer you are, you are 1% more "out of touch" ( whatever that means) with someone less fortunate than you are.

$250 million= 250% more out of touch
$15 million = 15% more out of touch

soooo, Obama is 235% more "in touch" with the ubiquitous "average person"



you can't argue with the maths, bucko:lol:
 
Funny how people criticize Romney for getting rich from being a successful business man,but the same people that criticize him do not care that Obama made his millions from writing two books about HIMSELF.

do you really feel you have standing to call other people dumb?

well if thats true then I guess they will vote for the Morman after all lmao

Not if they're seniors and the Morman takes away their Medicare.

And that's Obama's hope: for conservatives seniors to think that it's better to risk voting for a "raghead" than to lose their pills.

I'm sorry but there is absolutely no plan to take away Medicare in any way shape or form.

The real facts of the Ryan Plan are not relevent? only people under 55 would be in anyway effected.. and we are happy to be because under Obama it will be gone ,,,

My mind is blown that people can vote thinkiing things that are false or the opposite of what they think..

Amazing that I'm an 'Obamaite' when I'm voting for Gary Johnson.

Did you write the piece? No, you didn't. So I wasn't talking about you. This steaming missive was authored by Margot Roosevelt. Check out her other works and you'll see there's not a one where Obama is anything less than the savior.

waste your vote..but a sincere thank you for not voting for Obama

Wasting his vote? At worst his candidate will be sitting on his couch at home instead of the whitehouse just like your candidate will be. So if one's candidate losing the election is wasting their vote, you will be wasting your vote as well.
