Also, Romney supporters are not representing well in a Presidential Poll set up a couple days ago, so if the opinion of C-D members reflects the US population as a whole then it's gonna be real tough for anyone who's not Ron Paul to beat Obama.



CD member definitely do NOT represent the population as a whole...lol. Unless, Newt has already got his moon colony set up. They tend to be a little ...out there.

I doubt Brewer's endorsement will affect Mittens' loser status one way or the other.


Yep, that's right ....bye bye was what she was saying...lol.

Nah....she was probably saying something more along the lines of "Look at me, teabaggers! I'm disrespecting the black President of the United States! I'm a racist moron - just like you! P.S. Buy my book!"

yes and does Newt. I think Romney will carry AZ, with or without the latest endorsement. I think it is also important for people to realize endorsement mean almost nothing, in fact they probably mean absoulutely nothing. How many times have you voted for someone because of an endorsement or not voted for someone because of the lack of the same? Do you have friends that vote for candidates based on endorsements? They do give bragging rights, that might be worth something.

I knew Jan Brewer back when she was a county supervisor. I was involved with her and her staff at the time in several projects. She is not a racist moron. She is pretty much a mainstream pro-business Republican, probably a lot like Mitt Romney. She became Gov when Janet Napolitano joined Obama's cabinet and rode the wave of anti-illegal sentiment in AZ to being elected in 2010. She may be out of her depth as a state governor, but she is not a bigot and she is not a tea bagger.

Obama's poll numbers with hispanic voters just went up.
I hope mittens knows that hispanics are the fastest growing group
in three critical swing states.

Sorry, but I have a hard time believing that incident would have happened if that had been a white POTUS standing there on the tarmac.

Nope, you have her wrong. She's lacks polish and decorum. She was just being rude and disrespectful of the office, not racist.
