No...stupid is voting for a party that puts up a candidate as pathetic as Romney. That's why he lost, you know...because he's an idiot. Doesn't say much for his voters.

If you want people to vote for someone other than Obama, then give 'em a choice. Republicans didn't do that. That's why they got obliterated.

And I don't get the Michigan/intelligence connection. I'm from Arizona...about 2600 miles from Michigan.

Obamacare was passed long before this became a Romney/Obama issue.

It got support based on words and promises, not details of the bill.
You don't remember all those staged Town Hall meetings ?
They were run like Tent Revivals..Hallaluyah !!!!

"You can keep what you have"
"Your premiums will go down"
"Small business is exempt"

I could go on and on.

Romney lost when the doctor cut his umbilical cord. He was born a dope. If his old man wasn't of some prominence, he'd be sweeping floors at a paper plant.

Besides, what did "jobs, jobs, jobs" even mean coming out of his mouth? Since when do presidents create jobs? I thought you wingers believed that government (president is part of the government...in case you didn't know) doe not and can not create even a single job.

But I guess you're gonna say that Romney was to be the first to do it, huh?

The OP made it a Romney/Obama issue.

It seems to me the OP is supporting this union's complaint that the ACA will make it more competitive for union-staffed contractors when bidding for work ... because of the premium clients pay when using union contractors (due to health and welfare payments.) Romney would support ACA in this instance. Not oppose it. After all ... the ACA was his idea in the first place.

Yup, and when it finally kicks in Jan 2014, a whole new set of unforeseen crisis level repercussions from ObamaCare will plague the nation, it's people, it's economy, and it's institutions and businesses.

Before and after the day ObamaCare is fully implemented we will see a flurry of rollbacks, exemptions, waivers, band-aids, and excuses flying out of this congress and this administration, all to try and rein in and blunt the negative effects of the disaster that is ObamaCare..
