Members Wales2004 Posted October 18, 2012 Members Share Posted October 18, 2012 I don't doubt that Mitt Romney and his family feel superior to the Obamas but I'm pretty sure they feel the same way about the Bush family as well. Mitt Romney and his wife just seem to exhibit a great level of disdain which is probably directed towards anyone who they don't see as being at their level. That said, certain segments of the media need to learn how to deal better with these types of "uncomfortable" situations and not apply these double standards. Tagg Romney and/or his brother(s) can claim after the fact that he was joking but that's not good enough. He should acknowledge that it was inappropriate and apologize. And the people letting him off the hook need to ask themselves whether they would think it was cute or funny if either of Barack Obama's expressed the same sentiment. The Romneys are surely motivating Democrats who probably weren't going to bother voting to change their minds and vote for Barack Obama and they may also convince some Independents who won't like their display of ugly condescending characteristics. We seem to be so many miles away from Ann Romney playing on the stupidity of the media with her fake outrage over Hilary Rosen pointing out that she's not a 9-5 job working mother. I am just going to go on wondering why it is that the Republicans cannot get it together and run better candidates for President. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members marceline Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 "Rockingham County Sheriff Bryan Hutcheson’s office said there was no indication that the activity was widespread in their jurisdiction and said the conduct “appears to be limited in nature.” If we use Republican thought processes that means that this one incident of voter fraud is only hiding millions of other cases, right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 LOL! You got that right. Republican voter fraud is widespread and a serious problem. After all, they are misprinting ballots and leaving billboard in Philly to mislead Hispanic voters about the election. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Wales2004 Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 Apparently Romney's people came back with a response that implies that they have made themselves the spokesperson for all women. I guess they must think that women are such a stupid bunch that we will all fall for anything they say on behalf of us all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 19, 2012 Members Share Posted October 19, 2012 This is annoying. Richard Carmona, who is running against Jim DeMint stooge and true believer Jeff Flake in Arizona, has already been accused of sexism. He denies these charges. So he decides to throw all that out the window by "joking" that their male debate moderator is prettier than Candy Crowley. http://www.politico.com/blogs/on-congress/2012/10/carmona-apologizes-for-calling-male-debate-moderator-138985.html 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Max Posted October 20, 2012 Members Share Posted October 20, 2012 I was curious if anybody else wanted to rank the swing states in order of most to least favorable for Romney. Here are my rankings: 1. NC (the only swing state I feel very good about) 2. FL 3. CO 4. VA 5. NH 6. WI 7. IA 8. OH 9. NV 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 20, 2012 Members Share Posted October 20, 2012 I'd put Wisconsin at 2 or 3. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juppiter Posted October 20, 2012 Members Share Posted October 20, 2012 I actually agree with your list Max, maybe switch WI and NH. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wales2004 Posted October 20, 2012 Members Share Posted October 20, 2012 So I heard on CBS radio news this morning that Mitt Romney's camp expects "Romnesia" to backfire and hurt Barack Obama with Independents. If they say so.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted October 23, 2012 Members Share Posted October 23, 2012 (edited) The President did a great job in this last debate. Romney is ridiculous and a liar.

Members wingwalker Posted October 23, 2012 Members Share Posted October 23, 2012 (edited) As someone who's lived in Michigan my entire life, it irritates the [!@#$%^&*] out of me every time Mitt says he's a "son of Detroit" and that his dad ran a car company. Just cause you were born in Detroit Mitt, doesn't make you a son of Detroit. You've spent nearly you're entire adult life everywhere BUT Michigan. Many Michiganders fondly remember your father Mitt, but you haven't done [!@#$%^&*] for Michigan, so stop saying you're one of us, you're not.

Members Ann_SS Posted October 23, 2012 Members Share Posted October 23, 2012 (edited) You don't appreciate Romney wanting to kill the auto industry because he loves Michigan. Edited October 23, 2012 by Ann_SS 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
