Here is the GOP's problem. Reagan was smooth but Dukakis and Carter were not. Clinton was smooth but Bush 1 and Dole were not. Bush 2 was smooth but Gore and Kerry were not.
Obama is smooth but McCain and Romney are not. See the pattern? Only sniperfire and his kind are going to be buying the lies coming from the right. But be prepared. After Citizens United, they have a lot of money and are going to be running a campaign of misinformation. And no one will even know who's paying for those lies/commercials.
But it doesn't matter. Obama is a rockstar. Just go to any college he speaks at and see. Romney's a joke.
I do find it interesting with all his visits to colleges. Maybe because it is easier to convince younger voters. But he is not a rockstar or any star for that matter. I do think he had a great opportunity to unite the country, but instead he has divided us.
If he went straight into the economy/jobs instead of into a divisive issue such as Govt run health care he definately could have healed some of the rift the previous administration had left us with....instead he poured salt in those national wounds and tore them more wide open.
That's funny because you immediately attacked Obama for spending any stimulus money because, "we were broke", remember? And then you blamed him later when economists said it wasn't big enough.
And when we tried to get a jobs bill passed, the GOP hated all of our ideas. The only ideas they would go along with were a. More tax breaks for the rich and b. Deregulations.
How short republicans memories are. They forget that because of the pledge they signed to Grover Norquist, they refused to raise any taxes. So zero compromise from the GOP.
And who is this Norquist anyways that the GOP would pledge their allegance to him over the citizens who voted them into office? Fucking treasonist if you ask me.
