For all the billions spent by the Obama and Romney campaigns, Republican and Democratic parties, and countless outside groups, we may wake up November 7th to a Washington that is virtually unchanged.

The expectations game has begun prior to the first presidential debate Wednesday night.
With the situation getting worse on the ground Obama has ended the surge just in time for the election in November. Taliban and related attacks against NATO powers were approximately 2,700 in August of 2009 when Obama made his contrary-to-campaign promised-move to step up the nation's military assistance in Afghanistan. Three years later, in August of 2012, there were more attacks – nearly 3,000.
Romney looks to come back from 47% don't pay taxes remarks and attacks on China trade. But Romney has so many vulnerabilities on China it is hard to understand why he would pick this issue.
Obama has been moving the needle with seniors using distorted arguments about Social Security and Medicare.

Conveniently-timed for Obama's reelection, the Hispanic and Women Farmers and Ranchers Claims Resolution program began September 24, 2012 – just a month-and-a-half before the election. Apparently the Obama administration did not care about this alleged injustice to females and Hispanics any time in the past three-and-a-half years. It just happened to be thought about and addressed now – just before voters pull the lever.
Chris celebrates the return of the NFL referees, ending the lockout.

In recent decades, the government has taken to feeding needy children to combat the negativity of trying to learn while being hungry. Now, with new Obama administration regulations on school lunches, we have a government that is causing hunger.

A new Franklin and Marshall College Poll shows President Obama with a comfortable lead in Pennsylvania.
In an effort to motivate the approximately 15-million new young voters, President Obama unveiled "For All" via social media.
While the "left" has distracted the campaign much too long by screaming about Romney's tax information for months, the "right" has been asking for President Barack Obama's academic records and other documents for years. The president should take his turn at disclosing long asked for documents.
Chris discusses the latest information on the attacks on the Libyan Consulate and the Tanning Mom's accusations that Mitt Romney has a fake tan. He talks to Gary Levitt from Penn Staters for Responsible Stewardship, Joan Doyle from the Doylestown Council about their breastfeeding ordinance, former Governor of New Hampshire, John Sununu, and Comedian Jimmy Shubert.
If the GOP wants a candidate to "man up", they should tell Mitt Romney to grow up and stop hiding his returns and stop disparaging working Americans for meeting their tax obligations while he dodges his.
It may be too late for Harry Reid to "save face", but it's not too late for him to "man up" and apologize to Mitt Romney – as well as the American public for his misinformation or lies – like any decent human being would.
Chris reviews Saturday Night Live's parodies of undecided voter and Ann Romney, 60 Minutes interview with President Obama, recent presidential polls, and the story of an accused Nazi fighting deportation.

With Americans watching the nearing of the date September 11, 2012 on the calendar for weeks – if not months – and dreading the stark reality that something disastrous may happen to innocent Americans again, the president and his political cronies refused to believe what happened.
Though the polls give political junkies a rush – and can put them on a natural high for a time or sink them into the bowels of depression – they mean absolutely nothing on Election Day. The poll taken on Election Day at the nation's polling booths is obviously the only one that counts.
Chris reviews yesterday's comments from President Obama on Univsion and Mitt Romney's response. He talks to Steve Cordasco on Finance Friday, CBS 3's Nicole Brewer from an Apple Store on the release of iPhone 5 and Beasley Reece about the matchups for the Eagles and Phillies this weekend.

Missed in all the controversy over Romney's 47% don't pay taxes remark is Romney's callous and downright dangerous remarks that a crisis sparked by Iran would be good for his election prospects.
President Barack Obama is in favor of the extremely controversial idea of redistribution of the nation's wealth. Basically, Obama believes that everyone should "have a shot" at the good life and great opportunities in life whether they've worked for them or not – paid for by those who have acquired their wealth and success-related opportunities in life via hard work.
