Obama Campaign: 'Why The Hell Did Romney Pick This Guy?'
Breitbart ^ | 8/13/12 | Ben Shapiro

Posted on 08/13/2012 6:43:09 PM PDT by Nachum

This evening, the Obama campaign sent out its most desperate fundraising email yet. Following in the footsteps of their other emails cursing out Americans (e.g. “Let’s win the damn election”), and tweets deriding Obamacare opponents as “motherf***ers,” now the Obama campaign is spluttering mad over the Paul Ryan pick by the Romney campaign. Here’s their email, titled “What’s behind the Paul Ryan pick?”:

Friend --

Congressman Paul Ryan is the poster boy for the extreme Republican leadership in a Congress whose overall approval rating is 12 percent. His plan to dismantle Medicare is deeply unpopular with the general public, and especially undecided voters.

You might be wondering why the hell Romney picked this guy. But this is a strategic pick that carries real danger for us.

Here's the calculation: Mitt Romney doesn't need or expect Paul Ryan to convince even one undecided voter to cast their ballot for him. That's not what he's on the ticket for. He's there to reassure and inspire ultraconservative ideologues and corporate interests that they will have one of their own a heartbeat from the presidency.

That means tens or even hundreds of millions more dollars for the

The rectal Left is frenzied with terror over Ryan. Romney’s choice means he’s playing hardball and hi-lighting competency - a commodity that is totally missing from Obamugabe.

Seems like you’d be talking about your successes, if you sent out emails to your own party group. You need to bolster their belief in you...not disbelief in the other guy.

We in Wisconsin like Paul Ryan and know he is not an extreme right wing conservative. He is just a regular conservative and if his district needs something that is a must, will vote towards the middle. He did this on TARP as Janesville is a town with a lot of laid off GM autoworkers. Yes, the auto bailout and the stimulus tossed money down the rat hole and Paul knew it would happen.

Obama’s spend and borrow got Paul to put out a reasoned alternative on the federal budget and on our bloated entitlement programs. Ryan won’t ditch S.S., he is trying to fund it to keep promises made to old people and near old people, plus give the younger workers some options and let them manage their own retirements, not be locked into a failing federal scheme.

Ryan panics Obama as the left knows Paul can explain sensible small government so our dumb voters can understand we are in a big bag of dung if Obama keeps on with the crazy act.

If my party sent me an email like that...

I would suspect that one of my friends does not have very good virus protection and their email address list was stolen.

Your reaction is just one reason why no one on FR supports that party.

I keep asking everyone why no one is looking for the Gestapo goons who “cleansed” the Wannabe Dictator’s entire life. He didn’t go out on foot and do it himself. Note that no one, absolutely no one in the US Congress is asking that question nor any of the talk show heads. Comments anyone or ideas?

The claim that the Paul Ryan pick would result in more Republican contributions from “outside sources” baffles me. Outside - as in outside the US? Or is it the belief that those who do not worship Dear Leader should be outside the political process?
