I would have loved for Ryan to have turned directly to the camera and said “See, this is exactly why nothing ever gets done in Washington”.

That would have been game, set, match for R/R.

I do not have any Catholic friends in North Eastern Ohio voting for Barack. These are people who are registered Democrats, they are even posting Pro-Romney stuff on Facebook. This is BIG.

Historically, the undecideds break heavily for the challenger.

The amount of people who proactively tell a pollster that they will vote for the incumbent is usually within a couple of points of the total that he or she actually receive.

In this case, more terrible news for the Kenyan.

Sorry, I meant the 10th question in the survey not the 10th post.

Coming from one of the reddest of red states, I can’t help but be disappointed and dumbfounded by my fellow countrymen from Ohio. Not the good conservative voters of Ohio but all the confused “swing” voters who are so desperately misinformed about the endless monumental failures, deficiencies and corruption of the Obomba presidency. Please wake up Ohio, our great country is at stake!
