My gf asked me today how will Obama's first term be remembered? Interesting question I thought.
The healthcare bill? Killing Osama? Not fixing the economy (assuming it was fixable)? The most curious Nobel peace prize? Not really raising the taxes for the rich and lowering them for the middle class? What else?Comment -
Record breaking foreclosures. Consecutive streak of unemployment over 8 percent. Housing starts in the toilet. Green energy a total failure. Instead of cleaning up that oil spill, used it to promote his green energy ideas. Gas prices doubling (to be fair, most of that is not really his doing) Underestimating the Tea Party............Comment -
What has Obama done to improve your life?
Name one thingComment -
And yet the middle class never had it worse than under Obama. Health insurance, already a pain in the d*ck, skyrocketed under Obama. This is precisely why Romney walks into the White House.
It's not even a question of "wait until November" - three weeks from now, the Romney momentum (which is already under full swing) will be clear to everyone - and the desperate moves that the Obama administration has been engaging in the past two months will make a lot more sense. They know it's coming.Comment -
Emily acts as if re-election validates a President's actions and the results of those actions
I'm sure she felt the same way when W Bush won re-election

Uh oh, Romeny now getting the youth votes Obama got four years ago.
A Romney first: over 40% of youth vote back him
For the first time since he began running for president, Republican Mitt Romney has the support of over 40 percent of America's youth vote, a troubling sign for President Obama who built his 2008 victory with the overwhelming support of younger, idealistic voters.
Pollster John Zogby of JZ Analytics told Secrets Tuesday that Romney received 41 percent in his weekend poll of 1,117 likely voters, for the first time crossing the 40 percent mark. What's more, he said that Romney is the only Republican of those who competed in the primaries to score so high among 18-29 year olds.
"This is the first time I am seeing Romney's numbers this high among 18-29 year olds," said Zogby. "This could be trouble for Obama who needs every young voter he can get."
Zogby helped Secrets dig deeper into his weekend poll, which we reported on earlier. The poll had Romney and Obama tied at 46 percent.
Zogby has been especially interested in the youth vote this election. In 2008, 66 percent chose Obama over Sen. John McCain,the highest percentage for a Democrat in three decades. But their desire for hope and change has turned to disillusionment and unemployment. Zogby calls them "CENGAs" for "college-educated, not going anywhere."
In his latest poll, Obama receives just 49 percent of the youth vote when pitted against Romney, who received 41 percent. In another question, the independent candidacy of Gary Johnson is included, and here Obama wins 50 percent, Romney 38 percent and Johnson 5 percent.
But while taking Johnson out of the equation in the past has seen a surge in support for Obama, now the numbers for Romney--and undecideds--increase.
Zogby speculates that Romney's selection of 42-year-old Rep. Paul Ryan helped turn more younger voters to him. "It could be his youthfulness," said Zogby of Ryan. Plus, he said, more younger voters are becoming libertarian, distrustful of current elected officials and worried that they are going to get stuck with the nation's looming fiscal bill.
"They want change," said Zogby.Comment -
Funny how you idiots post this nonsense and stupid poll data. Yet the odds on Obama to win keep getting higher. This just goes to show how desperate you are and any glimmer of hope you cant get to the internet to post it fast enough. I just hope you take the loss like a man and quite posting 50 Obama threads a day after your guy gets his ass kicked.Comment -
I said Obama will still win youth vote but Romney will get enough cause of ryan for it effect the election, Romney now tied in Ohio after VP selection, if he can pull off Florida he's got it easyComment -

Too many unemployed , poor and minoritiesComment -
Try +180.
Here's another gem today out of Biden's mouth.
Not only does Biden not know what state he's in, what century it is, he doesn't even know what office Ryan has.
You can't make this shit up, I mean he's Dan Quayle stupid. No, he's dumber than Dan Quayle. Counting my +180.
Biden Refers to Ryan as ‘Governor’
Vice President Joe Biden on Wednesday referred to Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), the running mate of GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney, as “Governor Ryan.”
During a campaign stop at Virginia Tech University in Blacksburg, Va., Biden said, “Congressman Ryan and the congressional Republicans, as one person said, had all, have already passed in the Republican House what Governor Ryan is promising to give the whole nation.
“So in a sense folks it’s almost like running against another incumbent, like two incumbents running. By that I mean, we know for certain, we know for certain what the Republican Congress has been proposing the last four years – last two years has been Republican,” Biden said.
This guy Biden makes Quayle look like Einstein. And to think, this idiot is a heartbeat away from running the country.
