	Mitt Romney is losing	929 votes	59%
	Mitt Romney will rebound	658 votes	41%

President Obama opened up a 9-point lead in the most recent Fox News poll. Looks like all the negative ads and character assassination tactics are working. Negative ads may be bad for the American political landscape, but they seem to be working for Obama, at least for now. Do you think Romney will lose the game of hardball -- or will he rebound and win just in time for the election?

FOXNEWS.COM reports:
The president would take 49 percent of the vote compared to Romney's 40 percent in a head-to-head matchup if the election were held today, the poll found.

Mitt Romney will rebound

+36
The Obama campaign is spending more than it's taking in on attack ads...Romney hasn't really begun to attack Obama and his campaign has plenty of cash on hand, September and October will see the onslaught against Obama begin and he'll be underfunded to respond.

Same old tune. Check some facts like rat faced Mitch McConnell almost 4 years ago admitted he will play politics and try to deny Obama a second term by trying to block any and all legistation and keep saying no to jobs bills and anything that would help impove the economy. His partner is sneaky tricks and dirty politics, Johnny Bonehead in House is doing the same.

Just out... the current Congress just set a record for the biggest do nothing Congress going all the way back to the 50's.

Republicans are disgusting, vile, deliberate liars about everything, all the time, all topics as I just proved again.

What kind of a bird brain thinks any president tries and plans to bump up the deficit?

The kind that's staring back at you from your bathroom mirror every morning. That kind.

Right wingers are so dumb. Really, really dumb!

"What kind of a bird brain thinks any president tries and plans to bump up the deficit?"

So now your defense is that Obama is just a complete idiot who managed to run record debt without having any idea what he was doing. It's always amusing to watch you 'Bamabots try to defend your messiah.

Fact check:

American corporations are sitting on a pile of CASH in excess of two trillion dollars. Ask youself, why aren't they investing it and plowing it back into their businesss thereby stimulating the economy and oh no... creating millions of new jobs?

Be an idiot and blame who's president. Try leaning something instead. What a novel idea.

reply
Richard... to Mr. Won... 2012/10/03 03:53:41

The answer to that is easy: Because in addition to his generally holding the economy's head under water for the last 3 years your clueless Messiah threatens more taxes and regulation on business every time he opens his ignorant mouth. Why on earth would any company take on more payroll liability with that staring them in the face? If you were any dumber you would forget to breathe.

Uh gee let's see, how about implementing an executive order granting amnesty to millions of illegal aliens under his version of the DREAM act when provision for no such policy exists in the US immigration law he is supposed to enforce as written.

Now, I have to step in... You, Mr. "Lost" obviously have not read Obama's Book,"Dreams of my Father". Because, if you had, you would understand that Obama is NOT an American at heart and he is following a Marxist Plan to destroy Capitalism and the Strength of the US, as seen by the rest of the world. Thomas Jefferson wrote 200 years ago that, "When 50% of the people can vote themselves whatever they desire, teh republic is lost." Looks like our last election just proved that our Entitlement Programs have created this exact predicament... How do you win 96% of teh Counties in America and still lose an Election? Things that make you say, hummm... Now, please prove to everyone how ignorant you are by TRYING to come back on this...

Facts like more has been added to the debt during his presidency than any other in history? Facts like he has presided over a downgrade of the US credit rating? Facts like he has substituted his own immigration policy by executive order that prescribed by the US immigration law he is constitutionally obligated to enforce? Just how many "facts" do you need to get you out of your delusional Bamabot state?

Obama didn't and can't change any laws. He granted an extension...well within his power...

reply
Richard... to Mr. Won... 2012/08/18 00:45:55

Every president does not use executive orders to completely circumvent the law he is supposed to enforce. The fact that your only defense is "everybody does it" and that it's not even true is TRULY pathetic. But then, being a Bamabot, your programming won't allow you to admit the messiah did anything wrong so I guess your only other choice other than spouting pure BS is to start your self destruct sub-routine.

LMAO True Bamabot. Response to everything critical of messiah = "BBB BB B B B B BUSH!". Of course not one word as to exactly how Bush did all this. Just "BBB B B B B BB BUSH! [wipe foam from mouth, nash teeth]" I do have to admit with Obama's complete and utter failure you really don't have much else. You certainly can't defend him on any actual merits. And yeah, sure the fault is all Moody's not that the US government, under Obama more so than ever spends absurd amounts of money like water and solves each new debt crisis by adding more debt. But NOOOOOOO that couldn't be the problem. You are like every assh0le with crappy credit who goes around whining about how terrible it is the credit bureaus actually dare keep a record of his crappy credit....
