Yeah, I told him that. That’s when he quoted Al Gore. And two seconds later, I went to lift some weights.

Sounds like Mitt has had enough of the One's atrabilious campaign.

“So Mr. President, take your campaign of division and anger and hate back to Chicago and let us get about rebuilding and reuniting America.”

I’m atrabilious this morning after working all day at the polls yesterday and watching my candidate lose in the Republican Senatorial primary. I guess I’ll have to get behind the old war horse, Tommy Thompson, now becausse the leftist alternative is horrid. I’m leaving in moments to have my nails done. Maybe I’ll feel better afterwards.

Change will take a little time, but, as we used to say on Wall Street: The trend is your friend.

we LOVE joe biden right where he is, saying what he says, why would she propose dumping him????

Can you spot the difference?
Reporter #1: Mr. President are you considering replacing Slow Joe Biden with Hildabeast?
Report #2: Mr. President are you taking Sarah Palin's advice and replacing Slow Joe Biden with Hildebeast?

One could be done but #2 can not.

Checkmate

A number of the GOP faithful remain atrabilious that the VP pick wasn't someone like Christie or Rubio -- alas, it wasn't the case. However, I do think we can count on Romney & Ryan not to ask some Solyndra wannabe- "A bailout, sir?" and waste taxpayer money just to curry favor with cronies.

Not even old enough to have served in WWII, just old enough to have gotten the best from America and to always be wanting more.

You can't be atrabilious when you're listening to the Moron. That's toe up!

Romney has taken the mittons off and is slamming Obama's altrabilious campaign mud.

    Mitt Romney used a tough new campaign speech to personally blast the Obama campaign on Tuesday, saying comments earlier in the day from Vice President Biden are "what an angry and desperate Presidency looks like."

    "Mr. President, take your campaign of division and anger and hate back to Chicago," Romney said while campaigning in Ohio.

I am looking forward to THIS Romney throwing Obama off message and making him lose it during a debate. An angry, bitter Obama will not win many votes.

Romney team is swinging for the fence. Good for them.

Rudy. Rudy.

I mean, there’s a real fear if, God forbid, he ever had to be entrusted with the presidency, whether he really has the mental capacity to handle it. I mean, this guy just isn’t bright.

First of all, if that gentleman is listening to Al Gore, or even remembers anything Al Gore said, he is a hard core dem who won’t be swayed by anything. But if he thinks older Americans (and illegals in Texas) aren’t already being affected by changes in medicare then he is delusional. My Mother tells me weekly about another doctor in her town who has either closed his office or has announced they will no longer be taking any new Medicare patients. The idiotic notion that the money isn’t being taken away from the elderly but is taken from the hospitals or insurance companies is just unfathomable. How stupid do you have to be to believe that? It doesn’t matter where the money is going, it is all the same program. So sad that this man is unable to comprehend the scare tactics of his party
