It’s a Miracle

Bill Whittle, who does a regular online video series called Afterburner, has a particularly strong message in a recent video, about how miraculous Barack Obama’s career has been, and how unsurprising it is that Obama believes what he believes.

It’s well worth six minutes of your time…and worth sharing with friends.

One thing that the right doesn't understand is that it can't win by only being negative. Personal attacks against obama only can't win. Mitt Romney has just promised personally never to fight for conservatives on social issues. He says that it detracts from his campaign message which is money. The right doesn't care how bad romney is, or even if he is worse than obama. They just keep attacking with nothing better to say.

The American People will get sick of negative & only negative, which is the rights only choice since romney is not conservative, very quickly.

This smoke & mirrors with a devoted liberal like romney behind it, won't hold up much longer. Sorry guys, we know obama is bad, but you also have to have something better if you want thing to change.

I still ask for a conservative Tea Party ticket.

Liberty,

With all due respect (and with a full appreciation for the importance of the social issues), Mr. Romney understands that the election will be decided by the 10% of voters who are undecided. He knows that he cannot win the 45% of voters who support Obama (if the last 3+ years haven't convinced them, there's rather little in the way of rational argument that will), and he doesn't need to win over the 45% of voters that are already firmly in his camp.

The remaining 10% are clearly not motivated by social issues (if they were, they would have abandoned any possibility of supporting Obama long ago). The task, therefore, must be to remain disciplined and focused on the issues that are important to this group; namely: jobs, economy, national security. Trust me, the Romney campaign has spent millions of dollars in focus groups and polling; they know what the core issues are among the undecideds and they aren't going to take the bait on anything that falls outside these boundaries. You and I might not be thrilled with it, but it's not about you and me. Frankly, that's okay with me; it's smart politics. If that's the price I have to pay to ensure that the current national disgrace is removed from office, well, I consider it a bargain.

Great stuff! The word "audacity" definately applies to this POTUS and the words VOTING STUPIDLY applies to those that elected him in 2008!!!!!
