Oh, retch. Oh, gag. Oh, puke.

PAY OFF CANDY CROWLEY. That's the brilliant move!

May this book not sell a single copy.

The media opted not to report on Obama’s failures, so for most of the USA, it never happened.

president was talked away from the edge of defeat in 2012

..and what a turnaround it was.. all across the country like "59 precincts in inner-city Philadelphia, the GOP nominee received not a single vote [ditto] nine precincts in Cleveland . . . .

(do I really need a /sarc?)

I cannot read much of this, but WHO encouraged him when he should have run for cover in the middle of the night?

I really don’t care about this book. Basically these guys won’t do their job during the campaign, running interference for any Democrat, but once elected, they will profit from what they should have been reporting. Honestly I think this should be criminal.

The BS got so deep I almost drowned before I got halfway through.

The fact is Mitt Romney had Obama by the balls in the first debate and laid down for the last two.

Mitt Romney deliberately lost the last two debates.
Now don’t ask me the reason, but if you get a chance just watch all 3, and you WILL agree.

Barry needed someone named Candy to haul his chestnuts out of the fire. No wonder this country doesn’t get any respect in the world anymore.

Virtually all of Obama’s policies were taken from Obama. Why would people vote for Romney to replace Obama. Why jump from one horse, to land on the same horse.

“I’m a naturally polite person,” he went on. Part of my problem is “erring on the side of being muted. We have to get me to a place where internally I’m not biting my tongue … It’s important for me to be fighting.”

What complete and utter bullsh!t.

Yep. This trash isn’t worth wasting the time reading.

Obama won because Romney didn’t try to win. Romney was gotten to, threatened, and/or playing the role of a pretend candidate. At a time when we needed a strong leader to take the country back, his campaign decided we needed to see how “nice” he is. He obviously decided not to compete after the first debate that he clearly won.

So, his re-election meant more to him than saving four American lives in Benghazi? He surely “threw that away”, didn’t he? We don’t even know WHERE HE WAS when the Benghazi four were being murdered.

The kenyan never worried about re election.

It was all sewn up weeks in advance by the IRS and Spooky Dude.

And the foreign company that counted the votes.

And the union thug criminality.

And the illegals who all voted thrice.

And.......(sigh)

This is the modern version of drama? The authors are spellbound because the President didn’t have a meltdown three weeks before his reelection. Does that make him heroic? They never seem to have any accounts of him actually doing his job...
