Good luck with straightening out a sitting president. That's a combination of wishful thinking and whistling past the graveyard.

YES

And straightening out zer0 with his whole marxist, anti American thing would be
Worse than impossible

ONLY RomneyCARE could lose this election.

I agree with the statement above. However, two interesting things about it:

1. the Supremes could make this issue highly irrelevant in the next few days. Lets speculate that they shoot down Obamacare, then it largely takes the issue off the table, as Romney wont want to talk about RomneyCare so he wont bring it up, and Obama an the minions in the MSM wont want to bring up any discussion that would obviously lead to an in depth discussion of what would be Obama’s biggest failure.

2. Even if they dont shoot it down in total, Obama appears from all accounts to be losing reams of white middle class voters. Yes, the Black vote will turn out for him if he appears on American Idol next week and sings “Mammy”, but you still dont win elections in America without white voters (not speaking of “white hispanics” with apologies to Mr. Zimmerman”). I know theoretically you maybe able to calculate a way where he can win with blacks/hispanics without whites, but practically you dont. The only people that I see that are insisting that they wont vote because of Romneycare are conservatives(note that word insisting, not that it might not annoy others, but speaking now of those who are listing that as their first issue).

So the real question to me becomes are the conservatives saying they will not vote for MR under any circumstances going to outweigh the largely white, working class, heterosexuals that Obama is scaring off in droves. I dont know the answer to that question, but I dont think that Romney is a sure loser as some do....but I think he’d greatly benefit from Obamacare being struck down.
