Obamacare? Are you kidding? This is GREAT for Romney. What does it do?
1. Tags Obama and the dems with a very unpopular measure
2. many democrats will simply stay home, as Obamacare is opposed by 2/3 of the nation
3. The SC decision energizes conservatives to improve voter turnout
4. The SC decision will increase republican fundraising
5. The SC decision allows the republicans to tag congressional and senate dems with this very unpopular plan
6. Independents (any who were left on Bo's side) will leave in greater numbers due to this decision.
This is one of the best gifts the SC could have given Romney and essentially insures his victory over Bo (which was pretty secure in the first place). People are AFRAID of the individual mandate and feel as though the government (and this administration in particular) has far overstepped its bounds and has abandoned the mill of MOST AMERICANS.
The President is indeed very vulnerable------I, once did have hope when he was elected, but it has vanished and I think a change is needed.
That being said the GOP cannot have a repeat performance of their disgraceful debt ceiling fiasco----a huge number of people are still furious at Congress and are angry at the intransigence of Congressional leaders.
This is an opportune moment for the GOP to change gears from defiance to thoughtful movement on the great challenges facing our country.
The President faces a great challenge in November---the Republicans will lose their opportunity and hand him the election if they enter the election battle with arrogance, defiance, and an uncomprimising attitude. The country now needs bold and inciteful leadership----not more slogans, idealogy, and defiance.

You're trying to argue that most people don't want free insurance. There's about 51 milllion people, about 1/6th of the US population who now will get it. Keep banging that drum. There's 51 million people banging a different one.
Bin Ladan gone. Other Presidents tried to get a healthcare package passed with no luck. Ending the wars.. Battling a say NO House. What exactly will the GOP do for the people? Re-Elect Obama...

They'll make sure a warm, yellowish fluid keeps 'trickling down' your (middle-class) head...
Its going to come down to the debates, but the sad thing is that the debates will be so picked over, so carefully scripted, that you still won't get to the answer of who is truly better.
I'm not voting for either the D or the R candidates.
What if at the RNC everyone nominates Ron Paul instead of Romney? THEN we'd see interesting debates! Ron Paul won't stand to have the issues ignored. WE are DUE in this country for a REAL PRESIDENT who can do some good for the country and not just another Democrat or Republican NWO puppet. Everyone knows the government has been screwing us. It is time for REAL change. Some say it is in the works and that "the cavalry is coming".
The DNC keeps flinging stuff at Romney - and nothing seems to stick.
War on Women - failed.
Attack venture capitalism - failed.
Everything Obama does fails and a lot of Democrat leaders are jumping ship.
Obama has made enemies with unions and the economy ain't gettin' any better.
Barack has 5 months to convince the unemployed that he is their man.
I don't see it happening.
He is in BIG TROUBLE. The best thing possible for Obama may be to lose the election and rely upon Romney to pardon him for Fast and Furious. Nonetheless, Obama has already lost the presidential election. The real question is what happens in the senate. The recent SC ruling helps sink the democratic senate candidates and creates the very real possibility of a republican white house, senate, and congress.
