The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Saturday shows Mitt Romney earning 50% of the vote and President Obama attracting 42% support. Four percent (4%) would vote for a third party candidate, while another three percent (3%) are undecided.

Actually; Romney has always been sort of a cardboard cutout to me. Hearing that he was high school prankster has actually made him seem more human. Definite Obama/MSM backfire there.
The fact that we may see his actions as the all-evil ‘bullying’ today, is just chronological cheuvanism. 40 years ago when he did this, it was just good, clean fun with no lasting physical damage (hair grows back). Taken in context for the time it happened, with Romney in his late teens, and with the ‘victim’s family denying the more sinister overtones, it’s a break-even proposition for the Obama/MSM team *at best*.
IMHO, *anything* that can be done to humanize the automaton image of Mitt Romney is a good thing for the Romney campaign, and a major blunder for the Obama/MSM team.
Excellent point!
Gay Marriage is not about what people can do with their own bodies. Nobody is stopping them from engaging in unnatural sex within the confines of their own homes or privacy...but the issue is about them trying to change the definition of an institutuion that has stood for thousand sof years.
So, that's two strikes against your assertion.
I guess murder is about what you can and cannot do with your own body, because it is is illegal to use your body, either physically itself or when connected to some other instrument, to murder...or for that matter, even harm another individual...which, umm, brings us back to abortion, doesn't it?
Stop buying wholesale into the liberal mantra and using it for an excuse when it is nothing but pure emotional hyperbole not at all connected to the real issues.
Obama has made a big part of his election now about Gay Marriage...and it will lose him votes...and I am hoping for far more than enough to cost him the election, though what he has doen to this economy and so many other areas of American life should suffice in any case.
Again thx Jeff for pinging me, I think we need to join forces and everyone get behind Romney. And before the onslaught against me many know I have been against Romney from day one.
I agree and am with you. BZ.
Its called Blowback
Wow...the poll is down to 47-45 today. I guess I’m just not seeing what is bring the clown back.
I laugh every time I see that guy post "Media Death Watch"... It's stronger than ever... Why? They're now more emboldened than ever before. They see themselves as a counter-balance to Rush/Talk Radio, and Fox.
For all of the talk about Fox being number one... 95% of the media is liberal. That cuts across TV, radio, supermarket tabloids... They keep spinning the "evolved" story in a favorable light to Obama.
The all powerful media influences opinion greatly... Especially among folks who are too lazy or ignorant to do their own research, rather than look at the headline and believe the spin/lies wholesale.
Totally agree
I think you misunderstood my point of view. I hate abortion and think it is murder.
My point only was the media and liberals frame it as us pushing our values on them. That is always the first argument I get.
Well, you have just read exactly what my arguements back to those who use such tactics.
They do not hold water and are false on their face.
A woman can do what she wants with her own body as long as she is not hurting someone else. In this case the someone else is the baby inside her who is a seperate and distinct individual who is growing within her...and doing so as a result of her own actions. Killing the child, the fetus is just that...killing it (him or her), and like murder, it is a horrid crime and should be illegal.
Most states have laws where if an assailant kills a pregnant women and the baby within her dies too, then it is double murder and the murder can be and often is charged with both.
Yet in those states if that same women hires a doctor to kill that same babay somehow it is okay, and legal? The ludicrous and conflicting nature of such laws is obvious.
Same thing on marriage. No one is stopping gays from having their "unions" and even contractually sealing their commitment legally...but it is not, nor ever has been "marriage," and it is they who are trying to force their values (or lack of them) on the rest of us by changing the definition of an institution that has stood for thousands of years.
Anyhow...sorry if I took you wrong. God's speed.
LOL
“Oh my!
Is it too early to pop some corn?
You are a brave soul, friend and hope you have donned your flame-retardent jammies as I predict the handful of Hate-Romney/Mormons will soon be at your throat with their pathetic arguments that Mittens is 10 times more dangerous and a threat than Dear Leader, even though while there is ample evidence that the Community Agitator is actively working to destroy Capitalims, if not our Republic, and though there is not ONE shred of evidence to show that Romney has said or done anything to indicate he would do same, that makes no nevermind to those who are blinded by their hate.
Stay well, stay safe and God Bless.
Count me in as an Anyone but Obama acolyte.”
LOL again, I have been the brunt of many a flamings, only to find that at a later date they are all singing the tune. I was a firefighter, used to the heat, besides if I can’t say waht I believe I’m on the wrong sire. BTW - anyone here that knows me knows I am not a Myth Romney fan.
