Why is it every time there is “bad” news for Romney or polls showing him down in the race ... it is always criticized as “bias” or unbelievable?

Maybe all these bad news stories for Romney have something to them. People are not excited about him and and many people go with the devil they know then the devil they don't.

In my little part of the world (NH), there is no great like for Romney (and not much love for Zero), but they look at Romney as a fatcat zillionaire ... and now with his 14% tax rate middle class people are saying “I pay more than that” (even though their Effective tax rates are much less).

There seems to be WAAAAAAY to much “whistling past the graveyard” here and FR. Way to much over confidence. I believe we are all going to be slapped in the face with a terrible reality on Wed. Nov 7th.

In our state the commie-rat challenger to the Republican senate candidate constantly refers to to him as a millionaire in her adds.

And here it is stated: “but they look at Romney as a fatcat zillionaire”.

Somebody please explain to me how someone being wealthy makes them unsuitable for public office? What is the logic, what is the rationale behind this other than playing mind games with the stupid?

I’m so sick of this class warfare/divide and conquer leftist BS I could just puke!!!!!!!!!

Romney is as uninspiring as McCain and running an even worse campaign at this point in time . McCain blew it in the debates . I don’t see Mr. Milquetoast doing any better in the upcoming debates . Many think he is a fall guy , and I am beginning to think so myself .

Well maybe not latest poll in your state looks pretty good. Oh sorry hate to ruin your the sky is falling mood.

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in New Hampshire shows Romney with 48% support to President Obama’s 45%. Four percent (4%) prefer some other candidate, and three percent (3%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Uhh umm Why is Obama going to Wisconsin ? Needs more cheese? Why did Obama’s campaign manager say “we aren't worried about the national polls they are going to tighten” Either this is a rope dope campaign strategy or Obama is in trouble, even in Wisconsin!

Gallup 0 47% R 47%
Rasmussen 0 46% R 46%

That is why.

Yup. But if they show him ahead they are hailed as the fountain of truth. Libs play the same game.

“There seems to be WAAAAAAY to much “whistling past the graveyard” here and FR.”


Good way to put it.

Yup. Even though though there was a lot of truth to his 47% comment, it hurt him. It made him look like another rich guy dumping on the poor. With the incompetence obama has shown with both the economy and now foreign affairs, one would think even Slow Joe Biden could clobber him. Something has to change, and fast. With only a little over 5 weeks left, time is running out fast. There is an enormous amount riding on the first debate. Romney has to be absolutely perfect, and obama has to make a mistake of such enormous proportions that even the media won’t be able to cover for him.

Well said. You should have seen this place the day before the election in 2008. People still thought all the polls were wrong and McCain was going to win a landslide.

Romney’s running a pretty lousy campaign. There are so many great ads that should be run and aren’t. How about an ad that shows US Military in a gay pride parade or kissing in uniform? How about something that shows coal miners being laid off overlaid on Solyndra logo? Not sure why we can’t seem to find a fighter in the GOP.

Because people actually bother to crunch the numbers presented instead of just accepting what ever the Leftist media tells them to think at face value. Really think Obama is going to get more votes in 2012 then he did in 2008? The media pollsters do. Really think the same media that manufactured the fraudulent Bush National Guard story in 2004 and corruptly coordinated coverage with the Obama campaign in 2008 via the Jour-0-list web site magically changed to being honest this time?

Ok why do you believe the proven politically corrupt Media that shows Obama ahead and discount the professional pollsters like Rassmussen and Gallup that show the race tied?
