If President Obama were able to run for a 3rd term, not a Republican alive who can beat him. That's how popular he is and how effective he has been, even with Republican obstructionism.

This nonsense Conservative narrative ignores the reality. He is a popular President, period.

You can't really reason with that kind of ignorance. It's why the GOP needs to forget about the "black vote." The Republicans will get the blacks worth getting. The rest are unreachable and frankly completely incapable of looking at things rationally. If they did, Obama's support wouldn't be at 89% with them given the unemployment rate for blacks, the Democrats' pro-amnesty position, the Democrats' hatred of school choice, etc. etc. etc.

Yea, throw 13% of the country away. The GOP's tunnel vision with courting white men is working, aint it?

Pretty much. There's not a Republican that most of the country would trust with a potato gun, let alone the military.

The latest polls have Romney ahead of Obama if the election was held today.

Time to open your eyes, the the majority of Americas have, and realize that Obama is a crappy president that has implamented poor policies unilaterally and expanded the role of the executive branch at the expense of the American people.

Obama's approval affects all the dems that are running this November and will affect who ever runs for the dems in 2016. Just as clinton hurt gore and bush hurt McCain.

A small majority and that majority has slipped into a minority, according to the polls. As I said before the last 4 elections were more about lesser of 2 evils than about qualifications. Democrat or GOP, it's the same beast just different rhetoric.
As for who to trust with the military. Obama got more soldiers killed in Afghanistan in 4 years than Bush did in 7. I don't trust any politician when it comes to our soldiers. Both parties treat our soldiers like a toilet paper.

Yes, it's almost funny how many of his warnings/predictions have come true.
But since he's got an R after his name, well, screw it.

Actually it sounds like that's what you and some others have done, even though it's probably to your own (and many of the rest of our) detriments. How unfortunate.
