I agree. Obama is so NEGATIVE. He went from HOPE AND CHANGE, a positive slogan - even if they were empty words - to blaming everyone for everything and always talking down his opponent rather than talking about what he himself is going to do to make things better. It's time to show Obama the door. Hopefully this time tomorrow Romney will be our president-elect.

Very well said!

It amazes me that even yesterday Gibbes final words going into Election Day were blaming Bush and insisting that they need more time.

I will give Obama he had a mess, but a lot of presidents have had the same coming into office. Obama has had four years and has not improved anything!! We are worse than when he took office. You can't run on that. Period.

Romneys campaign has been positive, passionate, and gives a message of how he can turn our economy around. Not to mention his experience turning businesses around.

It is time for a positive change and I pray Romney is elected today! I am certainly encouraged by the record turn out in most areas.

I don't know what you are talking about. Got any specific examples?

IMO:

Obama sounds like he hates this country when he speaks and that we're pawns to him.

Romney makes me feel proud to be an American when he speaks.


Revenge = Obama

verses

Love Of Country = Romney

Romney has been positive?

The Romney campaign produced a controversial ad that argues Romney would be better for the auto industry than Obama. In the ad, an announcer says, "Obama took GM and Chrysler into bankruptcy and sold Chrysler to Italians who are going to build Jeeps in China. Mitt Romney will fight for every American job." Images of cars being crushed accompany those words.

That's positive?

Please give us some quotes of Obama speaking the way that you say that he does. There is no words that come to mind that indicate Obama hates America or the people are pawns to him. That's some BS you heard on talk radio.

Such hyperbole. Do you hear yourself? "A LOT" of presidents have had the same thing? Really? So that means we've had a LOT of deep recession. Things have improved in 4 years. Quite a bit. If you don't think so, you're reading the wrong data. Is it where we'd all like to be? No, but we have have improved.

Indeed! I get more and more disgusted with Romney every time I hear him say he knows how to fix the economy, then proceeds to not tell us.

The fact is both campaigns are basically operating as anti-the-other-guy campaigns. Obama is painting Romney as a flip flopping liar who stands for nothing and won't tell us how his plans are going to work (which is absolutely true). Romney throws in the occasional America cheerleading but mostly just bashes Obama because he doesn't want to talk about his own plans (mostly because he has few plans that don't shift with the wind, and the plans he does have don't add up mathematically).
