A vote for Romney is like throwing your vote away and handing the election to St. Hope and Change.

Good job, Republicans, what a great choice! Morons. This is why I'm switching to Independent when this is all over. The GOP is almost as bad as the Dems anymore.

When people like Ann Coulter are getting on your case and inferring you are incompetent you gotta know its over. I'm starting to wonder if Romney is even going to make it to the convention,,.

Wow, when you get a whiff of the opposition then you can see why even Obama in hard times comes out smelling like roses.

I used to think the John Stewart show was a spoof but to find out these people exist and are actually in with a chance of heading for the Whitehouse and the Presidency of the world's predominant superpower.

LMAOIf I didn't I think I'd bawl my eyes out. And why are jackasses who sit around puffing cuban cigars and saying not alot at all between bouts of burping and breaking wind considered oracles of profound wisdom in America Ann Coulter Demands Romney Fire Andrea Saul - YouTube?

That youtube clip was car crash television of epic proportions. Why is that woman on the News so concerned about millionaire/billionaire donors? If they've got money to be throwing at Romney or Obama drting this Presidential campaign and in this economy then something tells me these aren't the people politicians should be especially concerned about right now. Wealth should breed humility not the kind of sense of entitlement that these campaigners appear to have about buying the Presidency no matter how hollow the actual campaign.

No wonder the world is the way it is. Sort it out.

Amendment X

You: "Romney spokesperson: His individual mandate could have saved woman’s life"

Saul: "disgusting.” “Obviously, it’s unfortunate when anyone loses their job,” “This particular case was a plant that was closed years after Gov. Romney left the company. And to that point, you know, if people had been in Massachusetts under Gov. Romney’s health care plan, they would have had health care.”


Where does she say an individual mandate could have save this woman's life?


Want to make the election about Obamacare?


OK.
She didn't--she said Romney's health care plan could have saved her life. That plan HAS an individual mandate as a way of making the program financially viable for insurance companies--it would be impossible to run the program without it. Obamacare was modeled off of Romneycare. As for as the constitutionality of the individual mandate, I don't know if you've been living under a rock, but the Supreme court determined the individual mandate constitutional back in June.

I've supported this particular approach to health care reform since 1995 when it was proposed by Gingrich and the Heritage Foundation as free market vs. big government alternative to Hilarycare. I think the Democrats would love to make the election about the affordable care act, but that poses a problem for Romney. It's a major achievement for him during his tenure as governor that he has to hide from, because the far right tea party end of the base has been convinced that it has to be repealed, without any rational basis for doing it.

People like Ann Coulter are upset with Saul because she WENT OFF SCRIPT from the campaign, and actually told the truth.

Wow! Another gift for the Obama camp. Even Ann Coulter is having a crap hemmorage over this one and wants the girl fired...for telling the truth!

That whole fake story is hurting Obama. Haven't you seen the public reaction to that lie?

That campaign ad has inflicted a lot of damage on Obama, as he looks more and more desperate. A sitting president with any accomplishments can run on his record and does not have to resort to fabrications and slander to win. Obama looks like Hitler, hunkered down in the bunker in Berlin calling up non existent panzer divisions to save him.

Obama is gone- his ads reveal this.

BWAHHH!

You are hilarious, my friend. It's going to be an entertaining ride to November with you on the CD forums. You're like that guy from Saddam's government during the Iraq war who kept insisting that Baghdad was absolutely safe even as Americans were bombing it.

First of all, it's not a fake story. The man is real and so is was wife's illness. Show me how the stats where uninsured have the same mortality rates as the insured do. You can't.

Obama has a string of accomplishments, but the right wing will never bring those up for obvious reasons. OMG...they even attempted to bash him for killing bin Laden...how obvious can they be!

The Washington Monthly - The Magazine - Obama’s Top 50 Accomplishments

The obstruction that has ensued by a Republican controlled Congress has earned them the record of being the most unpopular do nothing Congess in history. It has always been amazing to me that their base was not furious when they made a public announcement that their priority was to make Obama a one term POTUS. Really? That's the priority after the nation was brought to the brink of financial destruction by the corruption and ineptitude of The Bush Crime Family? Shows you how dumbed down their consituency really is. There are Republicans representatives that have resigned due to the demented GOP agenda and there are parts of the base that can no longer support the hijacked Republican Party. Hijacked by so called Tea Partiers that have a base comprised of people that are too stupid to understand that supporting a party that subscrbes to Ayn Rand psychotic philosophy is going against their own best interests. The party is in shambles. They have nothing left but lies, distortion and propaganda to instill hate and fear and attempts to steal the election by voter surpression.

Obama will win and you will have another 4 years to revel in your hatred.
