Hello:

No candidate has ever won the presidency WITHOUT winning Ohio.

Did you know that 6% of Ohioans think Romney is MORE responsible for killing Ben Laden than Obama is? If Romney could work on THAT segment of the population he's got a chance.

Q15 Who do you think deserves more credit for the
Killing of Osama bin Laden: Barack Obama or
Mitt Romney?

Barack Obama... 63%
Mitt Romney... 6%

Silly Republicans.

Obumbo will win only with the DNC get out the vote program at all the cemeteries in the state... thats why they oppose ID requirements, because its too hard for dead people to get an ID.

Hello smoothy:

You know they DO require an ID to register. If dead people can get by the registrar, that ain't the Democrats fault.

Do you remember Michael Dukakis? He was up 17 points at this time... did he win?

Silly Republicans? Silly Ohioans, the sample was mostly libs and moderates and 31% aren't sure who is responsible for killing bin Laden.

I grew up near Ohio... the entire state is an armpit. Always was, never changed either. In fact isn't their state mascot a hairy armpit?

I'd be concerned if the polling was the last week of October .

No candidate has ever won the presidency WITHOUT winning Ohio... since JFK.. Ohio has gone to every winner since ;and no REPUBLICAN has ever won without Ohio.

Here is JFK's electoral map:

Is the red in the middle of the map indicative of the rust belt

tomder55 · Sep 10, 2012, 06:49 PM

No Michigan,the heart of the rust belt is #20 . Illinois ,home of the crypt voters in 1960 is #27 also a blue state .This year as in years before the Democrat boats will cross the river Styx and summon their corpse constituency to do their duty .

Pennsylvania 32 West Virginia 8,and upstate NY 45 , all part of the rust belt , are all blue on the map.

Perhaps there is significance in that, the impact of an economic downturn falling more heavily on democratic voters. I expect jobs get created in other places by those republican business men investing their wealth in jobs

tomder55 · Sep 11, 2012, 04:19 AM

Or perhaps it's mismanagement of those states by the Democrat machines that drives business away.

Hello again,

Did you see the Sunday shows? Romney and Ryan were all tied up in knots... They looked, frankly, STUPID... The answers to the questions were OFF the wall.. Even Republicans want to know WHAT loopholes they're going to close, and they WON'T say...

That's a recipe for disaster...

Look.. I don't know WHY the Republicans wanted to run a guy they really don't like, but THIS is the cost... Obama in a landslide.

I think Obama looks stupid every time he gets on camera and starts to lie... which is every time he opens his mouth.

paraclete · Sep 11, 2012, 05:20 AM

So now you tell me the choice is between dumb and dumber

And Obama and Biden are such sharp guys...

At a campaign event in Kissimmee, Fla. Obama said if voters re-elect him over GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney, he’ll push to see “three proud words” on products around the world: “Made in the USA.”

That's four words, like Biden's 3 letter word "jobs."

President Obama told author Bob Woodward that he didn't know Rep. Paul Ryan was going to attend at a major speech he delivered last year on spending and debt, and says in retrospect that it was "a mistake" to dress down Ryan and his budget plans to his face in that setting.

In the interview conducted July 11 -- about a month before Ryan was tapped as Mitt Romney's running mate – the president also misstated the first name of the man who is now on the opposing presidential ticket.

"I'll say it – I think that I was not aware when I gave that speech that Jack Ryan was going to be sitting right there," the president told Woodward according to audio transcripts of their conversations, provided to ABC News.

Um, that would be Paul Ryan, the House Budget Committee Chair and VP candidate.

On the campaign trail, President Obama is constantly talking about the importance of technology, but he met his match in an iPhone Sunday.

The president had stopped at a campaign office in Port St. Lucie, Fla. to thank volunteers. Then, for the cameras, Mr. Obama was supposed to call two campaign workers who were out working on his behalf.

But when White House trip director Marvin Nicholson handed the president his personal iPhone, Mr. Obama couldn't get it to work. A reporter who witnessed the scene said the president looked "befuddled."

"It's not clear he knows how to dial on an iPhone," the reporter wrote in a pool report.

Oh, and the WaPo/ABC poll shows the race about even among likely voters with Romney up 11 with independents.

Hello again, Steve:

This isn't about stupidity.. It's about a strategy. The Romney/Ryan STRATEGY is stupid. Oh, if it WORKED, it wouldn't be stupid, but it's NOT working.

Look.. What EVERYBODY thought when Ryan was picked, and that includes MOST Republicans, is that we were going to get some DETAIL... That is, after all, what Paul Ryan was known for. He was a straight shooting wonky guy who walked the conserve walk..

Then in his FIRST interview, he got tongue tied, and looked ANYTHING but like the guy he WAS.

Personally I think the ticket is backwards, but there's a long way to go yet.

Hello again, Steve:

Nahhh... It's OVER.. And you said why. Romney is NOT the guy Republicans WANT. That's WHY you're not going to get him.

Obama in a landslide.

Hello smoothy:

IF you'da run a WINNER, that would be so.. And, you're right... Obama is EMINENTLY beatable - but by a WINNER - NOT by Romney... You HAVE winners too... Mitch Daniels, Rob Portman, Jeb Bush, Chris Christy, and others... But, NOOOOO... You decided to run a LOSER instead. I don't know why.

Obama in a landslide.
