Obama is starting to sling mud and Romney needs to step up the counter attack

[frogsrangers]

Despite Washington Post and other fact checking outlets saying Obama's Bain attacks are outright lies, Obama is still running ads about Romney's involvement with Bain Capital and what he did when he was CEO. This ad is pretty low and features a lot of the lies that have been called out but Obama doesn't care if its lies or not, he is liar-in-chief.

I really wish Romney would step it up and attack Obama like he did Rick Santorum, Newt Gingrich, Herman Cain, and other GOP nomination contenders. He really hit Gingrich hard and hasn't shown the same attack dog grit against Obama. McCain tried the "Mr. Nice Guy" approach and it didn't work. If Romney really thinks the "One hand behind your back" strategy is going to work he is wrong. America wants a fighter. Someone who calls out the bullshit and isn't afraid to stand up for himself.

I think the Romney camp thinks that being a nice guy is the way to win over independents. That's not true. If you are constantly playing defense you let your opponent define you, and you will lose.

Also, has this country really fallen so far that a presidential candidate is being attacked and criticized for being a CEO? I think Obama's attacks against Romney's Bain involvement are attacks against capitalism in general. This country is circling the drain if people are being looked down upon for being CEOs. What is to be praised? Being a welfare and food stamp leech?

[Cougar Bait]

Worried about being labeled a racist

Not even sure most people know what that word means though, most who use it in a political conversation aren't even smart enough to look it up

Or his handlers could be playing some sort of soft approach like McCain did, we see how that worked out

It's round 5 and he's still dancing around the ring

In all honesty the choices we have to choose from as voters in this country makes me sick

There's 50 contenders for Miss America and we get to choose from 2 guys for president, tell me how that makes sense

Unreal

[InTheDrink]

No one is really talking about the fact that Romney will get fukkin buried in debates with obammer.

Its pretty sad that we will choose our leader based on the fact that one of the candidates is constantly sticking his foot in his fukkin mouth.

[MC PICKS]

Obama campaign crossed the line by accusing him of being a felon, all just an attempt to distract from the atrocious job the obama administration has done.

[muldoon]

It's July and they (Obama team) have known about this Bain stuff forever. I can only imagine the stuff they will release as the election gets closer.

Romney may have a massive PAC advantage, but there's enough footage from the Repub debates to make 30 commercials trashing him from other repubs.

<COPY/PASTE PAULYPOKER FED RANT ABOUT HOW IT DOESN'T MATTER AND LINK TO NUMEROUS GOLD/BULLET BUYING WEBSITES>

[Dutch]

It's early, both sides will amp up the attack ads. I live in a battleground state, I'm tired of ads already.

And what's up with people who don't know who they're going to vote for, who sees an ad and says "Yeah, that commercial makes a good point, I was going to vote for him but not now!"

[frogsrangers]

I live in Texas which isn't a battleground state and at least 2-3 times per hour when watching TV I see commercials about how Romney is an evil greedy CEO who outsources jobs while Obama is a great insourcer who gives companies breaks to hire people here in the U.S. and how great it was that he bailed out the auto industry

[Resler]

He didn't call him a felon, he said he MAY have committed a crime that would result in a felony. A lot of people back up Romney's story that once he left for the Olympics he wasn't with Bain anymore, but his name was still listed on SEC filings for over a year after he left. That would result in a felony. Obama isn't lying, but he is leading people to believe he Romney is a felon before a trial and all the facts are out there. Romney is going to get wiped up by Obama unless he takes his kid gloves off.

I agree, and its why I think Romney should choose Allen West for VP. Allen West is not only a fighter but also would not be called a racist for going after Obama.

If Romney isn't going to go after Obama and play offense, then he needs to pick someone who will. Condi Rice will NOT be that kind of person

The racist phags are crying.

Time for some of your own medicine... No more mr.nice-guy-in-chief...

[PickWinnerAllDay]

Mayan, this is a thread about politics, not lawn care or guacamole.

[Shafted69]

where were you when romney was carpet bombing his opponents in the primaries with negative ads lol !

[golfrulz]

VP. Allen West............brilliant....just fn brilliant.

[PickWinnerAllDay]

It'd be nice to see Obama admit that he failed the last 4 years... doubt it happens though. He will pass blame on and the simpletons that elected him the first time will buy it.

[frogsrangers]

Yeah, I am a racist. I voted for Mondale, Dukakis, Clinton twice, Gore, and Kerry. But Obama, no way I'd vote for a black man!

I loved Clinton because he was white. I only like white politicians regardless of party or ideology.

:rolleyes

People should stick to what they know, brother. Stop crying about racism you prikk, you probably support affirmative action, which is legalized racism.

[frogsrangers]

Anyone else tired of being called a racist because they don't support Obama?

[King Mayan]

Mayan, this is a thread about politics, not lawn care or guacamole.

You need ATTENTION, gutter rat coward??

[muldoon]

Just so we're clear.

Romney is listed on documents as being the the CEO, chairman and sole stockholder - but didn't do anything during those years. And with all this, he wants to accuse Obama of being a "do nothing" President????

[King Mayan]

Yeah, I am a racist. I voted for Mondale, Dukakis, Clinton twice, Gore, and Kerry. But Obama, no way I'd vote for a black man!

Wasn't talking about...

Was talking to the guy I quoted.. Duh.

Funny coming from the guy who spent the better part of the last 2 days in a thread talking about me

I was more financially savvy at 13 than you will ever be, Mayan. Let's not confuse things.

You've never taken an economics class in your life, but think you know enough about the economy to comment on it in political threads.

I bet you'd be lost if I explained simple supply and demand to you. You're a real problem because you're an ignorant, uneducated fukk who thinks his opinion matters.

Politically speaking, I'm not unemployed. I have ownership in a business first of all, and I am a student who is not seeking employment. You really think I count in the 8.2% that is unemployed if I'm not looking for work and I'm a student? See, if you were educated, you'd know I don't count into the unemployment rate.

I bet you don't even know that when someone gives up looking for a job that they get taken out of the unemployment statistics too.

[King Mayan]

don't worry about California.. We pay for our own shit...

While your meth state borrows from the federal gov. on a every day basis.. You Peabrain inbreds..

[PickWinnerAllDay]

'we pay for our own shit'

Meaning rich mostly white guys in California who are educated and own businesses?

What percentage of Mexicans in this country don't pay taxes would you say, Mayan?

Of course you have a stake in your parents business..

Keep sucking off that teat while I earned my money mowing lawns...

Pathetic sheltered coward.. 25 year old

[PickWinnerAllDay]

Also, I find it interesting that you would post a photo that made the Mexican people look like shit.

Worst state on that list is New Mexico, which happens to be the highest percentage Mexican of any state in the country. So it looks like Mexicans are obviously a problem for this great nation. How do you feel about that, Mayan?
