A scoop for Matt: Romney’s not going to be the nominee.

This author has the GOP best interests at heart, I can tell!

Gosh, we should sure vote for Romney

Because people who want Romeny are much more likely to vote for Obama if he is not running, see?

Because if they can’t get Romney, then no other GOP will do, and so might as well stick with Obama.

Because Romney is more ‘electable’. Romneys got what plants crave.

Oohhhh we would sure be ascared if you run Romney against us. See? our polls show he would beat us! you should pick Romney.

I pray that’s true, but we have many months to go, and there’s no way that this dirtiest of all dirty corrupted rat administrations isn’t going to have some kind of “October surprise” (or somewhere thereabouts) up its dirty sleeve. I am waiting with bated breath to see what it will be-I know it will be something more brazen and audacious than Americans have ever witnessed in American politics.

"Obama 45% Santorum 43%"

And this is in economic "good times" (if we take Zero at his word).

In bad economic times. 2/3 of the "undecided" voters would break for the challenger; that would work out to Obama 49% Santorum 51%.

Lib heads would explode all over the world!

Just wondering: does the poll break things down on a state by state (ie electoral college) basis?

“Obama 43%... Paul 43%”

BS sample...

Could 2012 be America’s Last Presidential Election?

> Michael Savage

> I’ve asked this question to a number of people and most them respond as if

I were crazy for asking. They tell me that this is America, land of the

free and that there will always be elections. I tell them that we are no

longer the land of the free and that if Obama gets re-elected in 2012,

that this just may be America’s last election.

> In the past three years, the Obama administration has been very carefully

crafting the nation for a political take over by his Marxist regime and

this isn’t just my opinion.

> Popular radio talk show host Michael Savage is the son of Russian

immigrants and is very familiar with Soviet and European history. Savage

warned his listeners this week saying, “I have to tell you that if this

man, God forbid, is the next president of the United States, we’re going

to be living in something along the lines of - people say Europe. I don’t

believe it’s going to be like Europe - I think it will be closer to

Chavez’s South American dictatorship.

> “This is the most corrupt, incompetent, dangerous tyrannical

administration in American history. It’s not politics as usual. It’s not

just Democrats versus Republicans. Obama has a long history of being at

odds with American values and with America itself and the core principles

of this country. They don’t want government-sponsored opinions. They only

want government-sponsored ‘Pravda.’ That’s exactly what the

government-media complex tells you on a daily basis - nothing but the

government-media complex party line. Pay attention. Your freedom may be at

stake.”

> Over the weekend, Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum told a

small group of people in an Iowa coffee house that,

“Barack Obama is not incompetent, ladies and gentleman. He knows exactly

what he’s doing and why he’s doing it. He sees America differently than

you see America.

> [Obama] has gone out of his way to divide this country in a way I haven’t

seen since the Great Depression when Franklin Roosevelt went around to

divide his country. That’s his hero. What makes America great [in Obama’s

mind is that] the government takes money from somebody and gives it to

somebody else. No, that’s what makes America, France.”

> With his control over the Executive and Judicial branches of the

government, the stage is set for a complete takeover of the government.

> Think about it.

> Since taking office, instead of helping the economy, Obama has purposely

escalated the economic crisis by plunging the country into unprecedented

debt. He has a number of programs that are designed to go into effect in

January 2013, just in time for his second term of office. The economic

burden and increased taxes on everyone will be enough to cause the final

economic collapse of the country. As soon as that happens, Obama declares

Martial Law and assumes dictatorial control of the nation.

> The Department of Justice has already been subverting federal laws to

strip us of a number of freedoms. The Supreme Court and many of the other

federal courts have been seeded with socialistic liberal judges that will

rule in Obama’s favor on virtually anything, thus ending constitutional

rule and law.

> He’s already changing the face of America’s military. Allowing homosexuals

to openly serve along with changing the retirement program is causing many

conservative military leaders to resign commissions and leave the

military. Some Pentagon officials are also noting that an increase in the

enlistment of radical Muslims into the US military where they get all the

training they need on weapons and defense systems. We have no idea how

many of them there are in the armed forces or in what positions they may

hold.

> Obama has been wielding executive powers this past year as if he were

already a dictator. When Congress is not doing his bidding, he simply

bypasses them and used an executive order to accomplish it anyway. This

has set the stage for his disbandment of Congress. He would not be the

first world leader to take control of a nation and disband the legislative

branch of government.

> He has been effectively using the media to anesthetize the public to the

dangers he poses. Like a patient being prepped for surgery, people are

numb to the changes and won’t have a clue what took place until they wake

up in recovery and realize that free America has been removed and replaced

with a regime that may parallel those of Stalin, Lenin, Mussolini, Hitler,

Chavez and Castro.

> For the sake of our children and grandchildren,

I earnestly pray that we are spared from what seems a certain future and

that Obama is overwhelmingly defeated in 2012. Otherwise, heaven help us.

Better not blow it, Republicans. Or else in 2016, you face the Tea Party. Win or die as a party

The SIGNIFICANT number in all this is Obama polling well below 50 percent. The popularity referendum is on the incumbent, not the challenger. Those “undecided” about Obama at this point are unlikely to come back his way. He’s had three years to keep them in the flock and hasn’t done it.

In February, EIGHT MONTHS before the election, what could this possibly mean?

Absolutely true. This is last call for the RINOs especially. They either prove they can win a national election (and then govern effectively) or lose all credibility going forward. Right now, Romney is EveryRINO—they will all be extinct if he loses to Santorum, Gingrich or Obama.

I almost believe that this stupid populace of dumbed-down, gutless, attention span of a gnat, pre-”occupied”, bread-and-circuses people who are called Americans by their mere accident of birth and nothing more, wouldn’t get up off their backsides and do a damn thing about it if he did, especially while they’re getting their “gubmint gibmes” ( that goes for all who get the “gibmes, not just the lower socio-economic class). They don’t even understand or care anymore that the money which pays for the free ride comes a shrinking producer class, and once they kill it, they also cut their own throats. No, I don’t believe it’s a fantastical notion at all.

Bump. The same polls the elites have been using to tell us that Romney is the only person who can beat Obama, are now showing us that any prominent republican can beat Obama.

(Did I say this three months ago?)

But, but...that is not what ABC News reported about a Politico poll this morning. Obama mopped the floor with any Republican by 11%. Who to believe?

Michael Savage made the headline on Drudge by offering Newt Gingrich $1 million to leave the race, while saying he couldn’t support Romney, and then he backed Romney.

The CBS hourly news update this morning cited some poll by the Washington Univ./something/something group that showed a double digit lead by Obama over both Santorum and Romney. That made me think that they had to dig pretty deep past Gallup, PPP, Rasmussen, WSG, NYT, etc., to find one that was positive for the Democrats!

Once the Republican nominee is chosen (except for Rombama,) there will be no contest. The leader will leave Obamao in his dust.
