Anyone else watch his town hall meeting this afternoon in Iowa?

There is no way he will lose during the 1 on 1 debates. His answers were precise and logical.


1. Our combat troops will be out of Iraq by the end of the year.

2. Our troops in Afghanistan have a timeline to return home.

3. Obama is trying to get the Bush Tax Cuts to expire, but isn't going to risk the middle class being punished by Republicans.

4. Obamacare is far from perfect, but it's a good start and is based on the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program that members of Congress use (only 4 Republicans opted out of this plan)


Disgruntled Democrats and Independents...remember why you voted for Obama in 2008 and ask yourself are we at least headed in the right direction. Because if any Republican gets elected, we will do a complete 180 back to the Bush years. Things are moving slower than we expected, but there have been enormous headwinds and we are still much better off than before. Bush ruined this country over the course of 8 years, give Obama and Democrats some more time to fix Bush's mess.

The Republicans can beat Obama in 2012. Polls show it's possible.

As for Perry, Paul, Bachmann or Romney....

I think Romney or Paul would give Obama the toughest competition. Perry I can see losing by a modest margin and Bachmann by a huge margin.

Obama will win because Romney, Perry, and Bachmann can't beat him.

Yeah, LOL. Just like you predicted that the stock market would be in a buying frenzy after the debt deal got signed. Save your predictions, please. They aren't worth the pixels they take up in cyberspace.

There's no way in hell I'll vote for GOP next year, but I'll wait and see before I make any predictions on Obama.
