I don't see how Obama could lead in any category. His term has been a complete disaster.

To get anywhere, you need bills from Congress to come to his desk and Congress has been (I think) at a historic low in approving bills for Obama to sign. Congress doesn't have a pathetic approval rate for nothing (which is about a third of Obama's approval rate).

Fact is, unaffiliated voters are much more intelligent and non-partisan than the rabid posters here spewing their endless hatred and LIES and DECEPTIONS from the usual sources, and the longer romney hides his taxes and gives absolutely NO SPECIFICS or DETAILS on any of his proposals -- just vague lip service and attacks -- the more this year's election will look just like 2004.

Can we believe anything our news-media says? I think not- Obama is charismatic-well spoken & likable and like a slick con-fidence man always seeks the spotlight but is corrupt to the bone. As a master con-man he always says what people want to hear and we Americans were proud to elect a black man as our president because it shows the world what we are all about. But while Obama preaches to the poor, he is owned by the rich. The only president to hide his past history at the cost of millions. He even surrendered his law license to avoid investigation. So what could be so bad that millions was spent to hide? Maybe a few drug busts & arrest records? We Americans will never know (probably far worse) because our news-media is closed & controlled and refuse to print anything about Obama's past history or his IN-ELIGIBILITY to be president. Obama leads America into a new unprecedented era of corruption.

Come to think of it, wasn't this corruption and dirty Chicago politics thing trotted out in '08. To paraphrase Sarah: That corruption and dirty politics thing, how's that working out for ya?

The same people who brought you the Walker defeat poll: Quinnipiac University/CBS News/New York Times.

The Irony.

You know, even though I hate making predictions during this silly political season of endless hatred against the President, and where romney supporters don't really like him in the least and will only vote AGAINST Bagger Vance in the White House, I believe Colorado and the majority of the swing states will go to Obama in 2012.

Fact is, unaffiliated voters are much more intelligent and non-partisan than the rabid posters here spewing their endless hatred and LIES and DECEPTIONS from the usual sources, and the longer romney hides his taxes and gives absolutely NO SPECIFICS or DETAILS on any of his proposals -- just vague lip service and attacks -- the more this year's election will look just like 2004.

The Dems never had a usable super majority. With Al Franken not seating right away due to election challenges and Ted Kennedy dying, that super majority never had any impact.

Look...louiville2_2 can't be bothered with facts. They get in the way of his mad hysterics.

Note how oBAMA has bought the women's vote? (17 point difference over men) ... With Sarah FLUKE lamenting that she can't afford birth control? ... Did anyone note that FLUKE was attending a PRIVATE COLLEGE which cost plenty ($160,000 for her degree) - to become a LAWYER? And she couldn't afford $30 a month for her birth control pills - or $30 a month for condoms? ... and if she is a lesbian - why does she need birth control?

Obama didn't have to buy the women's vote - they repubs HANDED it to him on a silver platter!
EmpireGeorge______-- replies:

PubliusCitizen, they played up the Fluke issue for all they could get.....they actually thought they could get Rush Limbaugh fired, like they attempted to hurt Chick-fil-a, and the baker, and anyone else that doesn't go along with the liberal agenda.

As the shady and dishonest tactics of the oBAMa camp and MSM come to light; including NYP rigging poll numbers for oBAMa (here), and WH pols telling DOJ not to continue Black Panther poll intimidation, and the WH pols telling DHS not not enforce laws in Occupy sit-ins, and WH refusing to enforce Defense of Marriage law, the WH pols telling DOJ to bury Fast and Furious - can't anyone else see the corruption in OBAMAs camp? Can the Media really hide this stuff from the LEFT - or does the LEFT have their head completely buried in the sand?

Poverty has risen to its highest level in almost 50 years, unemployment has been above 8% for 42 months, spending is out of control with $trillion deficits, the national debt has gone ballistic, there are more folks on welfare and Food Stamps than any time in history, and the Fed has issued a "darkening" outlook on the economy.

So why don't the liberals hold Obama accountable for this? Why don't the liberals think this is THE most vital issue of the campaign? Why would any rational person vote for four more years of this misery?

Obama is the problem, not the solution.

88Ronin is dead on. Every sensational thing you say changes when one looks for historical comparison. To answer your most important question, we don't hold Obama accountable for that he has not caused. Don't take my word for it, do your own research. Start with this question-"when did paper capital freeze?"
RollotheNorman replies:

Smollett cross-posts his little paste up job to every thread on the board, irregardless of what the the topic might be. CBS ought ought to IP ban him, he accounts for a lot of spam on their boards, and much of it is meaningless drivel.
