Seems very desperate if the OP is pulling out quotes from a 2008 campaign against a different opponent.

If you want to turn back the clock to 2008, Romney was still proud of RomneyCare. Now he hides from it and acts like ObamaCare is the worst thing in the world.

Besides, it's the GOP that are using scare tactics still today. Spreading the lie about "Welfare to Work" being reduced to remove the "Work" part. They still play this ad in swing stakes. It's a big lie and a scare tactic.

Another quite obvious thing is that you seem to have realized that Obama's foot is caught in a trap of his own making.

Why don't you just admit that HE set the standard and is now proving by his own metric that he has NO RECORD that he's proud to run on?
oh please, you are a blind republican. Obama could have this country at 1% unemployment and you would still vote republican and find fault with him. You are just as partisan as I am.

If I may ask a question: are you really that partisan or do you honestly and truly think Obama has done a great job and deserves a second term?

Basically.....anything Obama says has an expiration date stamped on it.

Kind of like how he called Bush's small deficits "unpatriotic" while he quadruples them.
Sorry, jt, ya made me do it............

I'm as partisan as my republican friends are. Nothing Obama would have done, maybe except adopt all republican ideas, would make you guys change your mind about obama. He could reduce unemployment down to 3%, saved medicare, SS, and reduced spending, and republicans would still want him out. I want him to have second term, because I'm better of today than I was 4 years ago.

Perhaps I'm more partisan, but I am certainly not as racist.

You'd vote for Obama even if he burned the Constitution on the steps of Congress and raped children in public.

I personally wouldn't care if he was from Mars and had polka-dots......he's a COMPLETE FAILURE.

It is no lie that Republicans and conservatives have a position on social issues that is an issue in this campaign. It would be foolhardy for Democrats not to capitalize on those positions which are unpopular with voters.

What is foolish is for Republicans and conservatives to insist that these issues are unmentionable and their opponent shouldn't discuss them. The GOP doesn't get to decide what Democrats talk about. If Republicans are ashamed of their positions, they should change them, not insist that they are off the table for discussion.

Democrats believed this was a courageous act.


She also wants you to pay for sex change operations.

And Democrats and the liberal media think she is mainstream.


On Wednesday she warned that Vice President Paul Ryan would allow pregnant women to die in emergency rooms.
This women is completely off her rocker. Either that, or she is being paid quite handsomely to keep uttering such alarmist nonsense.

Get the story straight. One, she wasn't talking about herself. Two, she was referring to people like her friend who takes bcp's for actual medical reasons. Stop distorting the truth.

Is she talking about her sex change operation?

If you ask me the Dems are jumping the shark with all these attacks against Republicans saying they want women to die. It's just shameful but they are all getting caught up in their own rhetoric.

It shows how desperate they are all getting. Sad.
