Romney running on pointing his finger at Obama

[gophangover]

What a great campaign strategy! Just try to keep pointing the accusing finger at Obama, and then the voters won't pay attention to the fact Romney is the 1% that caused the mess Obama has been trying to fix for the past three and a half years. Maybe the voters won't realize that if Romney becomes POTUS, Wall Street will be running the country again like they were when Shrub was in the White House. Don't let the fact that every time a Republican becomes president, they double the national debt. Raygun did it, Shrub daddy did it, and Shrub Jr. did it. It's call fiscal conservatism. Romney doesn't want the voters thinking about military spending doubling again to $1.2 trillion per year when becomes president. Don't worry about the U.S. starting a war with Iran that will cost another $6 trillion. U.S. global domination is good for America. And Wall Street bankers stealing America's wealth, that's just business, that's how Mitt got all his millions. While the American economy was going in the toilet, Romney's bank account got really fat. But if Mitt keep pointing his finger at Obama the voters won't notice the fraud behind the curtain. And destroying Social Security and Medicare, and throwing the elderly out in the street won't be given a thought if the GOP keeps pointing at Obama. And destroying education, well it's easier to herd the ignorant than the educated, don't think about it. Yeah Romney, just keep pointing that finger, what a strategy. You sure don't have any winning issues to run on.

Yep, I just posted a list of Romney's "special advisors". They're not special and many are just recycled from GWB's time, just as Obama's were Clintonites. Nothing is going to change with either of these jokers. No hope and no change.

Obama is a closet con, but the alternative....eeeeyuck!

Surely you jest! Romney is a closet liberal. Both talk all the time about what if elected government can do for you. As Reagan put it, "The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, "I'm from the government and I'm here to help."

Ronnie Raygun promised to balance the budget in his first four years. He never submitted one single balanced budget in eight years, and almost tripled the national debt. Raygun was a politician for twenty years before becoming POTUS. Raygun hosted the Taliban in the White House, calling them "Freedom fighters" and gave them a half billion dollars worth of war machine to terrorize the Ruskies with. He also sold chemical weapons to Saddam Hussein, which Saddam used on his own people. Raygun also went behind the back of congress and the American people and bought cocaine from Noriega, sold it and used the profits to give weapons to Nicaraguan rebels. It was called Iran/Contra. Raygun should have been imprisoned for treason.

Seems you missed the point. I'd still vote for Reagan's rhetoric over Romney's or Obama's. Only good President we ever had was Goldwater, and he lost the election. Now you can mudsling slogans at him.

All of these people share the same ideals. The only difference is in how they think they can achieve those ideals. There is no alternative.

I saw Romney on the news this morning, about to give one of his inspirational speeches, and he had the same "deer in the headlights" look as when Shrub couldn't find the door in China. Remember this?...

"What a great campaign strategy! Just try to keep pointing the accusing finger at Obama,"

As opposed to "It's the same Bush/McCain politics I (fill in the blank)"??

watching morning joe. Couple points. Obama is not running on his record -still blaming Bush, as one of th panelists said:" You can go back to Regan, or even Cartr to see the beginning of the decline.
But the current POTUS -fairly or not-get the credit or criticism of the economy"

The other thing that gets me is "fairness" -what the heck is fair about capitalism? some win, some lose - ya I know the Repubs are out of touch when they refuse any comnpromise on raising taxes on cap gains - but no-one should have to pay 30% on SPECUALTIVE gains ( which can also be speculative loses).

"Fairness" means all have the equal opportuinty "to persure happiness" - there is no declaration of "the right to happiness", only the abilility to persue to one's desires/potential.I'd go back to the Clinton tax rates - the "Buffet Rule" would only add about 4$B/year -negligible

Romney is a 1% - doesn't disqualify him -but he would have to show me something, so far not much.

Obama and Libya, and the escalation of AfPak, the NDAA, and droning the $#@! out of Paki= no way in hell am i voting for him

I've decided to go Green, if for no other reason then "ballot access" -any Green candidate ( and they have a good platform) is going to get my vote.
The very BEST thing that could happen to this country is an end to the duopoly (2 party system).
I'm tired of "toss the bums out -put in new bums -toss the bums out" - ad infinum.

Obama's donors are big corporation and bundlers, he's shown me very little, Kagan is a ridiculous SCOTUS appointment.
Surely he could have found a JUDGE qualified outside his Adm.

All that said, the Repubs show me nothing, but "tax cuts for the rich". I have no confidence in this crew .

Throw ALL the bums out, and get some Greens into Congress - it's prolly a pipe dream, but i'm not buying into 4 more years of sameness corptocratic, wars. Enough
