I'm still trying to figure out what message Mitt Romney has. Becasue the one he has now makes little sense. Increase defense spending lower everyones taxes, don't cut the things they like, repeal Obama care except keep the things in it that are popular. Cut funding for PBS and Planed Parenthood which will lower the deficit by a couple of drops.

Don't forget getting rid of FEMA, until you need it.

Yeah, and both the Quinnipiac and PPP referenced in the FluffPo article 700UW posted show Republican and independent turnout as being lower than it was in 2009 and 2010.

Something tells me that's not going to be the case. I think you might wind up seeing more than a few Obama supporters sitting this one out. Interestingly enough, there seems to be more and more data coming out of some of the black communities which shows they aren't the voting block they were in 2008 --- the message is getting out that Obama didn't help them much, doesn't necessarily stand for stuff that matters to them (both abortion and gay marriage tend to get under the skin of the church going crowd), and re-electing Democrats in 2010 didn't worked out too well for them, either.

Harder to say where Marquette and Wisconsin will fall. Marquette had Walker and Barrett tied at 49/49 in the recall race two weeks out, and Walker won that race 53/46.

he certainly handle Bengazi well, watched americans die then flew off to Vegas to make campaign money. Then spent two weeks lying and covering it up

Watched Americans die?

You are so focused on the tragic incident in Libya yet all were silent each day, week, month as our soldiers died in Iraq and Afghanistan. Where was the outrage when missions went wrong and people died then and still are.

We have had 16 killed this month. I guess they are not as important to you (political point wise) than the Ambassador and his security.

Carry on.

I didn't know Bush was still Prez in 2009 !

 

[southwind]

Where were you all when this was happening?

You were quiet as a church mouse.

Cant say anything about Mitt, cause he was never commander and chief, the only thing he knows about foreign policy is where to hide money and send jobs.

Only thing Barrack knew about Foreign policy, before being elected, was being raised in Kenya, in a muslim enviroment !

Glenn, did any of the 16 who died in Afghanistan die because someone made a conscious decision not to send in reinforcements when they were asked?

Were they left hanging for four hours while under fire? Somehow, I don't think so.

Any loss of life is tragic. Loss of life thru political malfeasance is simply reprehensible and criminal.

 

[Glenn Quagmire]

I don't know. With your sources, you should know. You have all the inside intel from a nation embroiled in civil war. That one should be easy.

 

[southwind]

This is called "Don't let a crisis go to waste!" or "Photo-op!"

Move along, nothing to see here but fluff !

Nah, you first. You brought up the 16. Let's hear it.

This is a home made disaster from 1600 Pennsy Avenue Dude. I don't recall the O crowd covering up their screwups in Afghan by lying and obstructing justice. Obama is in the process win or lose of burying his presidency.

If Afghanistan is such a hotbed, why aren't we out?

 

[Glenn Quagmire]

Nah, you first. You brought up the 16. Let's hear it.

I am sure it is malfeasance directly attributable to Obama, just like your impeccable sources have tied Obama directly to the Benghazzi incident.

I am quite sure you can do a six degrees of separation on this one.
