Romney’s internal polls must have him in a comfortable lead.

That's what I'm wondering (and hoping).

This is just anecdotal "evidence", but - we were in FL last March. We spent a fair amount of time in the areas of Inverness - Ocala - The Villages - Mt. Dora - Lecanto... saw TONS of Romney signs already up in people's yards. We were stunned.

I realize this is just a small part of Florida, and of course The Villages contains many seniors. And the signs were probably left over from the January 2012 FL GOP primary. Still... it gave me some hope.

Blah, blah, blah, yada, yada, yada, humina, humina, humina... Congressman Ryan’s favorable numbers among seniors are stellar right now. What is this cretin talking about?

You can summarize Michael Cohen’s journalistic talents in simply four words....

“Democrats good, Republicans evil”

I despise all of these liars and deceivers that pretend that they are journalists but are in reality whores that fellate the kenyan usurper. One day they will pay for their treason... unemployed and starving... begging in the street.

Will the media care when the Election Results prove Romney/Ryan Won Ohio, Won Florida, Expanded Tea Party Support, and Won the White House and the Senate?

I suspect the Wednesday morning Nov. 7th Headlines will be:

“America, More racist than ever!”

They must have an excuse, and are incapable of admiting they are wrong. So, this will be their out....

GOP Internals show Romney only down by 1 in Florida right now, with Rubio barnstorming the state the 1% can be easily picked up.

If it wern’t for Broward/Dade, Romney would be comfortably ahead.

Polls are always wrong so who cares. We are going to win in a landslide just like every other Tea Party election.

“How does the papers and TV news stay in business”

“Advertising is how they stay in business. They sell commercial time that is used to separate segments of the TV shows and companies buy what is called “air time”. With newspapers, they also sell advertisements but it is put on paper....a lot of stores advertise their Sales days and things like that. It is EXTREMELY lucrative. For example, Modern Family makes 483 million dollars a year for ABC and it only costs 1.5 million to make each episode. Advertising is BIG BUSINESS!!!!!!”

I believe this was a rhetorical question with a smidge of sarcsam. WDYT?

No from another Floridian. Paul Ryan is just what we need as he tells it as it is & not lies like Obama & his thugs.

Don’t expect honest journalism (oxymoron alert) from this jerk! He’s a NY Daily News shill for Obambi. Neither he nor the paper he works for would know the truth if it hit him in the eye with a banjo.

Oh, so now the NY liberals cast a glance at Florida, gaze into their crystal ball, and once again spout the wishful thinking they hope is prophecy.

Dream on, lefties.

Our great Governor Rick Scott’s Mother campaigned with him and did TV ads. She was terrific!

Paul Ryan’s Mom could do the same.
She lives in FL and is on Medicare!
She can say:
By saving Medicare...my son is looking out for me and for you too!
