Wait ... so Romney wrote off 39.1% of the voters because of a misunderstanding?

The current polls say whatever the author of the current polls want them to say. You want a poll that says Klaus will be the next president? We can make that happen. This is the new world of polls. The keyword is skew. You can make the election end before it starts if you do it correctly. Of course the risk is that your supporters might stay home because they believe the nonsense. |

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy | |

More evidence that even rich heirs of rich failed POTUS can't get job's under Mr. Obama. Carter said he is currently unemployed and has not been paid for his work by the Obama campaign or any other political organization. What motivated him at first was Romney's role at Bain Capital and the controversy over whether the GOP candidate as a businessman had invested in companies that outsourced jobs overseas. |

From what I read, Romney also made rather clumsy remarks about Palestinia. Shouldn't it be obvious to him that every single sentence he makes in public will be recorded by somebody and, if applicable, used by the political opponent against him? |

I swore I wouldn't read threads about the election but never could resist a D'Ohism. You Sir D'Oh just deftly summed up the absurdity of today's American political process in a post that's even funnier than the brouhaha over Harry's buttcheeks or Kate's boobs. Simply, sig-worth. |

I heard on GMA that Romney had a press conference last night where he in fact did not apologize or back off his comments. All these pundits seem to write as if they did not know this? Anyway, I think you have to be pretty obtuse not to understand what Romney was saying. It will be very interesting to see if the Obama campaign and MSM are sufficiently able to keep the electorate distracted from the real question they need to ask themselves heading into the voting booth. Sure, Romney should stick to scripted teleprompter speeches like Obama does. Much less chance of straying off message that way or saying something exploitable. |

Only in a world filled with so many village idiots could statements of truth be ridiculed and lies be held up as truth. Here's the deal - "palestinians" are NOT interested in peace. That is a flat fact. Anyone who thinks they are has sh!t for brains. Almost half this country is either not paying taxes, or on the government dole. MORE than half - I would guess 80% wouldn't be too far off target - are too f*cking stupid to tie their own shoes, much less form a rational decision on who to vote for. Republicans have a bad habit of eating their young. They're too concerned with appearing to be "fair" and "civil". Screw that. The democrats have no problem whatsoever in dealing in lies, distortions, and downright dishonest tactics. It's time the Republicans played their game. Here are some examples of the typical voter that supports Obama, and how they should be dealt with: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqYW1-NzZNE |

And the smartest 10% aren't allowed to freaking vote because they're not citizens, and what's more are too busy cleaning up everybody else's drool to even have the time! |

Is Michael Savage one of the 20% of Americans who've learned to tie their own shoelaces? I'm guessing he attended night school for that. |

You're right, Larry. Obama is a vastly greater president than Reagan. I stand corrected. Shouldn't have uttered the two names in the same sentence. |
