Democrats Bailing on Obama

I have a relative (by marriage) who was a close relative of the legendary Teddy Gleason of the Long Shore-man’s Union.
Speaking with her over the holidays she said that she made a mistake voting for Obamma( I about dropped the phone )and couldn't bring herself to vote for him again. If the Democratic Party have lost an ironclad follower as her ilk then they are doomed in the elections.

Any reason you can’t post the whole thing?

She’ll vote for him again. They always do.

Last time I did, mod changed it to excerpt. Just saving them the trouble.

Don’t be fooled. The vast majority will vote straight ticket dem. Now, I do think Ob has alienated some number of white dems, just not sure how many will bring themselves to vote R.

Woodrow Wilson played a thousand rounds while in office and Ike topped 400 Obama will not get close to 400 and never reach close to 1000 even with a second term. Word in the clubhouse he would be better served working on his jumper though.

Rank and file union members will not turn out for this scam artist again. He just kiiled the Canadain oil pipeline project which some estimated at a loss of 20,000 construction jobs and another 100,000 permanent jobs at refineries. Coal miners should now be aware how his EPA is destroying that industry and the Seaports are sitting idle.

Only federal and state union employees will vote for this guy..

Fair enough. Just axin’. :)

They don't have to do that, they just need to stay home.

I would not bet the farm on Obama receiving all those votes again! I got family members who voted for Obama because that is for whom the Teamster leaders told them to vote. I can tell you right now that WILL NOT happen again! My family members are truck drivers, ship yard jockeys and even work at MillerCoors Brewing; in speaking with them and several of their friends, a VERY CLEAR majority of these people will NOT be voting for Obama this time around!

I am talking about people with whom I could not mention ANYTHING political - due to our complete opposite points of view - that is until the last three years!

Oh my how are they going to explain throwing their messiah under the bus.

Pray Obamma stays in the election. He is a very easy target if he drops out and Clinton becomes the front runner we have our work cut out for us!

Fortunately for Barack, the Beltway wing of the GOP is trying to fix the race for Romney to get the nomination. There may be no better way (short of Ron Paul) to ensure that even the proven loser in our White House can stay in over his head for four more years. Even if Barack loses to Romney, the differences in policy will be small. In Mitt’s defense, I’ll admit that he doesn’t hate America, so he’s a step up from Obama. I’m just disappointed that Romney is so far to the left that he’d be a very small step up.

I hope I'm wrong about her, but my guess is she'll vote for him again for the same reasons many here will vote for Romney if he's nominee, despite saying otherwise now.

Right now, almost a year away from the election, we can voice our most heartfelt opinions freely. The closer we get to election day, the more we'll revert back to our political 'us vs. them' and ignore as best we can the ideological 'us vs. them' we live the rest of the time and especially during the primary season.
