Myth Romney is an honest man!
He has bought and paid for everything he has!
MEDIC!!!!
It's not for a FREAKIN' YEAR !!!
Lots of things can happen in a year, and probably will.
Iowa cannot come soon enough, we REpublicans and Conservatives need to gell around a single candidate or not, all of this infighting is not helping us with the Harpy as well as the Senate races that we must win.
What is more ridiculous is thinking that the Union employees could give a fig less about who the CEO of a corp is voting for...lol
You don't need to have personal interactions. I got the impression from reading this article, written after Ronald Reagan's death. I found it to be in horrible taste to dwell on Reagan's personal flaws only 11 days after his death.
“What is more ridiculous is thinking that the Union employees could give a fig less about who the CEO of a corp is voting for...lol”
Yours is the better point for the FED-EX post.
Having always refused to join a union, I overlooked the fact that FED-EX employees would actually be aware of mgmt politicking and would be in opposition to it’s efforts.
An even better clarification than mine.
Only Fed Ex pilots and I think one city somewhere in the North are union.
I tried to ping you before by listed you as “ansell2” not as ansel12.
I guess I need glasses...lol
That’s right, and most people don’t give a rip about any endorsement period!
I fear that Paul Weyrich, (formerly of Milwaukee, WI) is losing his marbles.
That happens at a certain, ahhh, delicate age...
You got it. This was the endorsement everyone was waiting for and Fred garnered it. It is appreciated and will be to our advantage.
“Only Fed Ex pilots and I think one city somewhere in the North are union.”
Assuming that is correct, then post 55 is the better answer.
Thanks, I hadn’t seen it yet.
Apparently sarcasm is new to you.
Do you know what your new tagline will be in January?
“Thanks, I hadnt seen it yet.”
Oops I had seen it.
1) Millions of supporters were not polled. My point, quiet simply, is that as an organization with a singular issue focus that is voluntary, whose decision was not made by it's 'membership' (it doesn't have members, it has a mailing list), cannot 'deliver' pro-life voters. These people will make up their own mind. As a strict pro-life voter, I am not persuaded. Neither are a majority of the pro-life voters in NH or IA, a plurality of both overwhelmingly back Romney.
2) The NRLC is not the NRA. The NRA endorsement CAN push it's members more effectively than the NRLC can push it's mailing list. This is old hat for them. But both the NRLC and NRA grasstop leadership has already been picked up by the various campaigns anyway (and his late entry hurts FDT here). This isn't like a labor union endorsement which is a BIG deal in the D primary.
3) The NRLC PAC did the endorsement. Federal law limits them to around a 5k check.
4)
4) I've done enough survey research to know that, to individuals in the first five states or so, being told that a national organization endorsed them has relatively little impact when you ask 'are you more/less likely to vote for candidate X?'
5) Yes, the Romney campaign is a little pissed it didn't get this endorsement because they swing at every pitch. It was probably someone's JOB to make sure this happened and he worked on it like his life depended on it and he failed. Yeah, it sucks. But in the scheme of things...
6) I'd rather have Sen. DeMint cutting TV ads and lending his machine to me rather than the NRLC (getting to the personal versus faceless organization endorsements). Wouldn't you?
7) I was mistaken about IA RTL. I was thinking of their grasstops. My bad, I was wrong.
