Romney has three days left to make Benghazi an issue.
I think the tightening of the polls is the residual effect of Romney going “moderate” in the last debate, putting in the performance we were all afraid he would in all the debates. Enough time has passed that it’s starting to get hard for people to remember how he did in the first debate. He peaked too early. It’s not good that Obama has regained the momentum going into the weekend before the election.
The debates were still the best exposure Romney were got. The election will be two weeks after the last debate. Romney was doing his worst during the couple weeks between the conventions and the first debate. His campaign advertising and messaging has always been lousy. And without direct, unfiltered exposure of Romney himself, the media defines him the way Obama wants him to be defined.
If there were 3 weeks between the last debate and the election instead of 2, it’d be all over for Romney. As it is now, it’s a true coin toss. He’s losing ground thanks to being forced to rely again on his campaign’s weak, confused, unfocused advertising to get his message across.
Seems to me that he and republicans have had plenty of time to make Lybya an issue and have failed. His numbers have been dropping, from 4+ to now tied. Play with the numbers all you want, but in the end, the give me mine for free bunch are going to see that if he is gone, maybe their free ride is also and they will vote. If we truly want to be free and want rid of this clown, then people better show up at the polls and get rid of him. If people just lag around and don’t vote him out, then America is done. Just read an article that in 2014 when you do your taxes, you will have to fill out a new form telling the government who your insurance company is or else. It’s coming folks. Total socialism. America as founded is at the edge. Nov 6th decides if it goes over.
This, after all, will be a nail biter. Romney has stalled out and Obama voters won’t show up in numbers he needs, so Romney wins the popular vote.
The states that count stubbornly lean Obama and that is scary. There had been no movement for Romney in days there.
Either way this goes, half of Americans are Godless Marxist supporting zombies after generations of public education. Very bad future with or without Romney.
Strictly in political terms...
God or Satan gave this storm to Obammie the Commie to use to his advantage.
Romney was also given Benghazi to use.
Will the GOP use what is available, or will they play the smiley, hands-across-the-aisle game that gets us all slaughtered?
And keep in mind, it is immoral and unethical to use a natural disaster for your political gain.
It is your DUTY to point out the treasonous acts of a sitting president who allowed Americans to be murdered on American soil for his own political gain.
He’s not doing it...surrogates McCain and Lindsey Graham are doing it
not sure how effective that is
He’s not going to do it and he better if he wants to be elected!
Romney needs to pull out all the stops. Get some ads going NOW about Obama denying rescue efforts and lying about what was to blame. Make it so that the networks have to bring it up. Pull no punches. Forget Mr. Nice Guy. Also ads pointing out that the UE rate went up again.
