She’s right though. Sandy completely stopped Mitt’s momentum. What looked like a race moving in Romney’s direction a week ago is just tied now. Instead of talking about Obama’s record, the news is all about Sandy. It gave Hussein the chance to “feel our pain” and look presidential. People also tend to want to “come to together” in times of tragedy and that made it harder for Romney to criticize Obama as much as he probably would have liked to in the closing days.

In this case an act of God helped the bad guys - possibly quite significantly. The Lord works in mysterious ways.

So you're saying that had Sandy not happened that the 20,000 or 30,000 attending Romney rallies would instead be 40,000 or 60,000?

God could not have helped Bronco without a compliant media willing to grasp at any straw. Besides, I still think God has the final say. Have faith.

No...it did not.

It exposed Obama for the incompetent fraudulent grandstander that he is.

It illustrated in fact just how competent Bush’s response to Katrina was in camparison to Obama’s total failure.

From what I can see it increased Mitt’s momentum and opened the eyes of a great number of people who are suffering in the north east.

Lemmee get this straight, Obama is slipping in the national polls, until a storm hits the East coast. The president flies to the East coast, shakes a few hands and gives away water, food and gas to people who were gonna vote for him anyway and all of a sudden, we can forget about 4 years of declining employment, 4 years of socialist government by fiat, an Ambassador slain on foreign soil while the administration preens before potential voters, etc., etc.

NO. I watched all of the Meet The Press, Face the Nation Democratic Spin Doctors. And YES. This is what they say too.

But I don’t formulate my opinions based upon what the media decides I need to formulate my opinions on.

A storm on the East coast has changed NOTHING...

Perhaps, for about a day...two days at most. Then, after the photo-op was over, the 0's admin, union thugs, and other liberal politicians got to show their true colors when it comes to getting things done--which is: they usually don't get things done, because the red-tape, bureaucracy and unions they put in place won't let them. It seems it was even hard for MSNBC, of all people, to not bring public strife and outcry into light (although I'm sure they try).

Personally, I think God's lesson in all this: "Don't be dependent on the Government. Be dependent on yourself; and when in need, the goodwill of your family, friends, and neighbors."

There's something to be said about personal freedom and responsibility.
