I am 70. Voted in every election since I was of age to do so. Some Presidents I have liked and some not so much. But I have never hated a candidate going in but I hate Romneys guts! I can not stand a liar and Romney has lied about everything as if he can't be checked out.

He has lied about being a good Governor, lied about creating jobs when he has cost us jobs, lied about Medicare, lied about Social Security, lied about Chysler, lied about his plan covering pre-existing conditions, lied about "saving" the Olympics............on and on and on.

He got Federal money of between 400-600 million that saved the Olympics. It sure wasn't him. Romney won't be happy today because Gov Christie is praising Obama to the roof tops.

DLC, I am definitely with you. Instead of President Obama going on talk shows, he needs to explain what happened in Benghazi. He is the President, and he is responsible for all Americans.

DLC,
Maybe we need to wait for the investigation on the Libya before we start spouting out what is the "truth". I would rather wait for the facts to be found. How many "truths" were out before facts were investigated. Please stop politicizing this event. You don't know what happened and none of the talking heads on either side do either.

I am going to vote for Pres. Obama in 2012. Just look at the difference between the two candidates. Pres. Obama took out Bin Laden and Romney's planning to take out Big Bird!

I am voting for the country to survive. That's why I am voting Obama. For the sake of our seniors, for the sake of our women and children, for the sake of the sick, the poor and those who don't have rich parents to send them to school or set them up in business. For love of America I am voting and I hope that Obama rips the GOP a new one for cutting the funding which resulted in the murder of those 4 Americans. And I want a President who believes in America over any Church, who doesn't wear magic underwear and who doesn't have beliefs which would make any sane Christian cringe! I have a heck of a lot more reasons to vote for America and for Obama then I see you have for voting for Romney.

Ditto carolo, Romney is sleazy.

Sorry DLC I voted for Romney In Mass and saw what I got. Maybe you would like to see how he handled disasters or helped our state. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/10/29/mitt-romney-disaster-response-massachusetts-_n_2041142.html You do realize he wants to do away with FEMA..bet the flood program is another gov't waste of money for him too! God help us in Florida if he does! This is a great article, nonpartisan on his record in Mass. http://www.bostonglobe.com/business/2012/09/05/governor-romney-faced-similar-economic-situation-obama-with-similar-results/cfq5gCjleJzD1uJhnxrPYN/story.html So been there done that, and actually when my real estate taxes went up so much, I was one of the ones who had to leave the state even though I was making $60k as a nurse. I won't make that mistake again and since I have been under each persons rule, I feel I can make an informed decision. Can you?? Are you basing your whole decision on Benghazi?? Then please tell me your thoughts on how Bush was warned 2x before 9/11 about an attack, yet ignored it and over 3k died?? Or the consulates that were bombed under George H W Bush?? Things happen with every president and sadly like with Bush Jr some are more tragic than others. Sorry I think Romneys record in mass speaks volumees if you care to read the article. I think you will find it enlightening, esp the Bristol Myers jobs he brought us and at what cost.

Another example how he helped my former state. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/10/30/mitt-romney-flooding_n_2042886.html

Obama seems to be the only person who hasn't figured out what happened in libya
He hated that this attack happened on his watch so he tried to lie his way around it for weeks by using the lame video excuse

A vote for Romney is a vote for America, Obama needs to go, !!!

ALREADY DONE

We don't know any thing about Romney. He back tracks so often we don't know where he stands. Only thing we do know is he is for the Rich Business man and that will not change. What little Romney has said will bring this country down to it's lowest level. Republicans got us into this mess and no republican or Democrat could have done a better job in the last 4 years than Obama.

I am a registered Democrat but Obama had his chance and we are worse off as a Nation. Time to give someone else a chance. I'm voting for Romney!

The investigation will start, maybe, the day after the election.
If Obama wins , a very quick investigation .
If Romney wins , the truth will come out.
I am not using this forum as a political commercial.
I as an average American am using this chance to bring this to the forefront so people can discuss weather or not they want 4 more years of third administration.
How many more years do you plan on blaming Bush???
Please that line is so old now.

DLC,
You really have no faith in the investigation under any administration. I guess when they investigated 9-11 they found that the current administration at that time did no wrong. They were given no warnings. I'm sorry, I know a few people who are already investigating this and this is not something the administration has control over. What gets released will have nothing to do with which candidate is elected. Please do not insult the good men and women who protect this country daily with this dribble.

DLC - The line about blaming President Obama gets old also. Everything goes in cycles. The country has seen worse - it will see better - and it will see worse again - an on and on, regardless of whom or what party sits in the chair.

"President Obama says what he means and follows through"

Guess you weren't paying attention to all the lies he ran on prior to being elected. Have you forgotten all those or where you not paying attention?

Obama is a liar. Romney is a liar. They are puppets.......front men. Sad how the masses want to follow a lying puppet with no backbone.

Sorry, but all of you who continue to vote for R's and D's are the problem in the country. Take a look in the mirror...YOU ARE THE PROBLEM. Quit giving consent to the two party insanity.

Let's go back and forth, back and forth....throw out the D's and then throw out the R's.....meanwhile, both the R's and the D's parade around as if they care.........take a look around, what has the back and forth gotten us?? YOU ARE LIVING IN A FANSTYWORLD SUPPORTING EITHER ONE OF THE ESTABLISHMENT CANDIDATES.

By the way, Lynda.....didn't the Dems controll Congress the first two years of Obama's term? Have you forgotten this as well?

I love how you and others parrot the talking points......."Obstruction"........DUH! The Federal Govt was designed to have gridlock. You back a man, Obama, who says he will act if Congress doesn't........THAT'S A TYRANT. He doesn't understand the Constitution what-so-ever. There's 3 branches for a reason.

And for the folks who support Romney, he is no different........TYRANNICAL nature just the same. Romney "DAY ONE I will do this or that!" Really? With an Executive Order? I hate Obamacare more than any person for what it is doing to my finances, but I do not want a man believing he can do as he will.....Obamacare is passed legislation.......Romney is not a Dictator deciding what's good and what's bad......but ahhhhh, he actually said he WILL decide what's good and what's bad. Wow, another who doesn't understand the Constitution either......but hey, let them take away all our Freedoms, the people aren't using them anyway.

DLC, I notice you didn't list the reasons for voting FOR Gov. Romney, just a quick-- and untrue-- jab at President Obama. That is what is getting old in this election. Tell us why you are supporting Gov. Romney. Which of his positions on FEMA do you like? Which of his positions on Iran do you like? Did you like him better as a pro-choice, union supporter when running in Massachusetts? Or do you like him better as a supporter of the Ryan budget, Medicare vouchers, the Blunt amendment and Mourdock? Do you like him outsourcing jobs to China or starting a currency manipulation debate? Which Gov. Romney do you support and why, DLC, average American.? BTW, the mess of the Bush II years is a fact, not an excuse. Have you seen President Bush II campaigning for Gov. Romney? No? Why do you think that decision was made? Recovering from the Bush II policies does take time, at least four more years for President Obama.

I can not imagine what "statistics" you have looked at that show Obama has stopped the economic free fall. It is just the opposite. He took a bad situation and through his lack of any meaningful experience or ability turned it into a full bore disaster. He grew the debt more than all the presidents before him combined. The job numbers are worse, the number of people on food stamps is much greater and he never produced a budget. Vote for him if you like but admit you are doing it on emotion and not statistics.

I cannot believe that anyone would vote for Obama. His track record shows that he is not qualified to be President. He not only wants to take God out of everything, he redicules our country, weakened the military to the point where other countries find us vulnerable, our debt has tripled since he took office. You say Benghazie should not be part of the political platform, why not? Where was Obama during this horrific act? They say the White House was informed weeks prior to the attack, why didn't they take precautions? Who sat in the situation room and watched our Ambassador and three brave men die? WHERE WAS OBAMA, in Vegas at a fund raiser, it was more important for him to go raise money for his campaign. HE NEVER takes responsibility for his mistakes, it's always everyone else's fault but his. HE'S A FAILURE - we need someone else to turn our country around. By the way, why does he have his college records sealed? He has spend millions of dollars keeping them sealed. Trump will give 5 million to the charity of Obama's choice to unseal the records, if you have nothing to hide and you are the President of the United States, wouldn't you unseal the records for charity? Once again, I say, If you have nothing to hide. WAKE UP AMERICA ......

Adella,
Where was Bush 4 months before 9-11 when he was told of the potential attack? I like how you are so quickly to attack one without thinking about the other. Some precautions were taken, obviously not enough. But do you really think the President makes those decisions. Do you know how many threats are processed on a daily basis against U.S. and our embassies. But you know what, the President alone is the person that can change all that. Do we expect the president to be Superman?
I assume you are also going to ask both candidates why they are at Campaign stops today instead of helping with the aftermath of Sandy.
I find people are quite convient in trashing a candidate about an instance in a vacuum.
As far as college records, all college records are sealed. Do you beleive your college records are not sealled. And I'm glad you feel for Trump's stunt, do you also believe him when he said that Michelle O. is going to divorce him as well. Trump got his name in the paper over something pathetic. If Obama had substandard scores, then that is on the Universities for excepting him.
I have no problem with people voting for Romney, Obama, Johnson, Barr, etc.. at least when you are "discussing" a candidate don't do so with mindless propaganda dribble.

Jerry,
I have seen statistics on both sides on this issue. It is all in how you manipulate the numbers. If you take the nominal statistics disregarding the seasonal work, there have been some improvement overall, but per capa of of the work force there has been a marginal dropping. So both sides are really accurate depending on frame your agrument. The markets are doing better slightly. But it is a global recession and niether of the two major candidates really have given us a plan to address the change in economic structure our country is facing.

Adella, if all you are going do is to attack President Obama, please spell Benghazi the conventional way. See, that is the problem with getting your news from FOX TV or AM radio, you never know the actual names of places or like Gov. Romney you think Syria is Iran's way to the sea. And then, sometimes you can get the order of the prescribed attack points wrong so that the ugliest one gets thrown in the middle of your list. Much, much less effective that way. If you really are a Romney supporter, tell us why you are supporting him, not why you hate President Obama.

S.L., you might as well be talking to the wall, if they don't know by now, they never will.

WHY ANYONE AT ALL WHO WOULD VOTE FOR OBAMA NOT ONLY MYSTIFIES ME, BUT I AM WONDERING WHAT FLAAVOR KOOL AID IS BEING CONSUMED

SUSIE, YOU CAN TAKE YOUR SANDRA FLUKE AND YOUR BIRTHCONTROL

I WANT A DAM JOB

Mark, I am glad you are better off then you were four 4 years ago. I have not been able to find a job for the past 5 years. I have had enough of Hope and Change. Romney is my choise for President.

Ginny,
I have no issue with your selection of Romney, that is your selection. My only statement is that neither of these two men can do much to change the job market place. Neither has addressed the shift in our economic structure, and someone who would have more of an impact would be the governor and city governments.

Romney's plan is a big secret, just like his tax returns and how much money he has hiding in his overseas bank accounts. How Romney will balance the budget after giving tax cuts to millionaires and greatly increasing military spending is also a great secret. I think that for most voters, there is no secret anymore. Mitt Romney's math does not add up and he has no workable plan for America's future.

Joe C,
Does it really matter how much money Romney has in overseas bank accounts? And neither candidates math adds up. They are just funding what their focus groups tell them to say they are funding.

Holly,
Actually both parties got us into this mess. It is bore of 30 years of bad legislation through both parties.

We have to cut spending and we have to increase revenue! Even Reagan increased taxes but I don't hear people screaming about that. We need those who don't pay taxes to start paying and if it means we all have to chip in a little, then fine with me. We want want want but we don't want to pay pay pay! That's the problem.

Brian,
And if McCain was in office you would be saying the same thing about him. It's the nature of the Global/National Economic structure which we are not trying to correct. Neither Romney or Obama has set a plan to really work towards fixing our economic structure. They are giving more of the same plans.

How is America moving closer to Euro-style Socialism? And I guess you forgot that Bush was the one who got loans from China, Obama hasn't done that. And yes gas prices are fantastic, they are going down almost every day. Inflation? Sure we have it but I guess you are going to blame Obama for the drought in the midwest or climatic problems around the world which effect our food prices! And Government freedom to search, arrest and yes jail you without a warrant was what Bush enacted. Where in the heck were you hiding? And two wars we fought which we can't pay for. Actually Obama hasn't changed America that much, there's no gun control, no gay marriage, and he's pretty much done whatever the GOP wanted him to do. Now if he gets a second term he needs cojones and then fix the problems the party before him started.

Why is it when a republican comments, it sounds like FOX NEWS talking points.

So much for Obama's FEMA, New York is still dark at night due to no electricity, people are digging trash due to starvation, looters everywhere stealing, worst of all disease carrying rats are all over the city & Obama is off to Vegas one more time during disaster telling bunch of fools that he should be reelected & as for FEMA according to the post on their website, it is going to take at least 10 days for the help to arrive, so those unfortunate people who survived this massive hurricane are going to starve to death, in conclusion I wouldn't pay you anything for your unfortunate remarks but you are right about your choice of remark yes it is a DISGRACE to ignore innocent people suffering due to the inept handling of a disaster by selfish liberals who only care about their own well being while spitting on all of us, it is a sad day but we will never forget when we go to the poll to elect our hero President Romney :)

Grace calm down:) Your comment has too many facts. You know that facts and republicans are like Superman and Kryptonite.

Yes, 7 more days before Romney's campaign goes down in flames. I hope that Romney is wearing his magic underwear Tuesday night when the voting results come in. He may need an extra pair that night when he realizes how many hundreds of millions of dollars that he wasted running for office.

Sara,
A lot of our worst presidents were successful business men. And a lot of greatest presidents were failed businessmen. The political culture is not the same as the business culture. Look at Rick Scott who can't get out of his own way. Romney was not a good governor which is the the only time he has been an executive in a political culture. So yes, it is a tough choice. Both major candidates are below average as an executive office of a political culture.

YAWN

Obviously, somebody who is up way past their bedtime. Because I can't believe that it somebody would dismiss the efforts of early voters in such a rude way.

That Romney a con man?

I always go to the CW for my facts, as well ;-) I can't wait to hear what Tyra Banks has to say about this on the next episode of America's Next Top Model.

Hopefully nobody is stupid enough to believe anything that this moron Cisco posts, because everything that he/she says s the polar opposite of the truth.

Here is the actual headline: Chrysler CEO: Jeep not moving to China

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-250_162-57542594/chrysler-ceo-jeep-not-moving-to-china/

No, that is a flat out lie. Unfortunately enough people believe this nonsense.

Liberals hit me with your best shot, lets hear your foul language & personal attacks or lies about Republicans how you all suffered because of republicans, yeah we heard all your sob stories.......so bring it on, oh one word of caution :)
KARMA, What Comes Around Goes Around :)

Lies? Looks like you've got the corner market on that. I doubt you're worth reasoning with.

@TBL35

Dont even try to reason with freaks like this. Just look at his user name. This is the neanderthal who used to stand alone at the corner of the school yard and say "wanna fight" to anybody passing by and when somebody said no, he called them a pussy, because he never realized just how inane his question was. Most people grow out of that, but there are still some knuckle draggers around like this who carry such thinking into their adulthood and now some of them can even operate computers well enough to post on sites like this. I actually think that it is best to let them simply rage away, because the vast majority of people (even people that otherwise might be ideologically aligned with him) find it vile and reprehensible. He does more damage to his own cause as a loud mouth Romney supporter, than anybody could ever do trying to lower themselves to his standard of copy/paste arguments that he regurgitates from chain emails and/or fringe conservative sites.

Watts how amusing that I strike a nerve for you to call me all those colorful names, I know your actions like a book & by the way I was the one who was busy studying & making the honor roll list while you were busy goofing off & blaming everybody else for your miserable life, oh yeah you must be very proud of yourself thinking you got me, well I am laughing at your feeble attempts, I am also laughing at you for proving me right on shooting off insults which definitely proves I am better than you plus your false assumption that I am male, you lost that by a landslide, I am very proud of the fact that I am a lady & been one since birth!
Get this liberals you are incapable of intelligent conversation, all you can do is throw insults, your me first & give me attitude will prove to be your downfall, enjoy being a puppet to the left wing leader who is pulling your strings, we are happy in knowledge for our belief in our right wing leader who appreciates our hard work & would never say "You Didn't Build That" well here's words of wisdom that you puppets will never comprehend "Yes We Built That & Damn Proud Of It" :)

Am I the only one who immediately sees this megalomaniac standing on a roof top yelling this...

"Get this liberals you are incapable of intelligent conversation, all you can do is throw insults, your me first & give me attitude will prove to be your downfall, enjoy being a puppet to the left wing leader who is pulling your strings, we are happy in knowledge for our belief in our right wing leader who appreciates our hard work & would never say "You Didn't Build That" well here's words of wisdom that you puppets will never comprehend "Yes We Built That & Damn Proud Of It" :)"

BTW, there are also many maladjusted girls who fit that same scenario on schoolyards across America. The reality is that there isn't a single thing in your writing that would lead anybody to believe that you have both oars in the water, no mater what your gender.

You should change your name to Pro-Drivel.

Hey Watts, I am still laughing at you, you are pissed off & all you are capable of is personal attacks, I bet your mother would never tolerate your comment BTW, there are also many maladjusted girls who fit that same scenario on schoolyards across America. The reality is that there isn't a single thing in your writing that would lead anybody to believe that you have both oars in the water, no mater what your gender.
I bet she would wash your mouth with soap!
Admit it Watts, you are a control addict, you love to create drama & you can't stand anybody who is better than you so go on with your illusions of grandeur which is your downfall :)

President Obama has been a busy bee the last two days, spending a huge swath of time with the press and in front of the cameras. Aside from using the White House website as his personal PR firm – putting out pictures of himself with the folks at FEMA and the Red Cross and in the White House situation room, and giving updates stating that he had “expressed his concern” and been informed “throughout the night” – Obama desperately wanted to visit New York City to let the photographers capture him overseeing the damage. He wanted his hero moment.

And Mayor Michael Bloomberg of New York City doesn’t have time for that nonsense. He’s actually too busy being the mayor of a city in major crisis to squire Obama around for his election campaign.

Today, Bloomberg rejected Obama’s offer to visit the city. “We’d love to have him, but we’ve got lots of things to do,” said Bloomberg. It was “fine” for Obama to visit New Jersey, Bloomberg said. “People understand the storm and he doesn’t have to … he’s got a lot of things to do.”​​​​​

My prayers goes out to all those who are going through the devastation of hurricane sandy, as Floridians who are prone & accustomed to devastation of hurricanes, it is our duty & good will to help them out on their time of need, as a Floridian I wish them a speedy recovery as less traumatic as possible!

LT, It appears that you watch Fox News a little too much. Are you saying that the failed one-term Governor of Massachusetts could handle U.S. foreign policy better? On the only overseas trip that Mitt Romney made during this Presidential campaign, he managed to insult everybody in England by questioning whether they were ready to host the Olympics. The newspapers had a field day calling him "Mitt the Twit". They are still laughing at him. Romney showed that he speaks without knowing the facts. He then travelled to Israel with billionaire casino owner Sheldon Adelson where he insulted the Palestinians. His speech also showed a lack of understanding of the Palestinian conflict with Israel. During the third debate Romney stated that he generally agreed with the president's foreign policy. I think that you should believe what Romney said at this debate. He said that Pres. Obama's foreign policy is correct and that Mitt Romney would follow the same policies.

Don't worry Brian help is on the way, they are all being watched & they will be booted off this site very soon, Patch has a good reputation & they don't want trashy comments, insults & personal attacks, they want to keep this site clean!

Brilliant.

Thanks for outing this Brian Maday clown.

David, I have an idea lets talk about things irrelevant, such as your perception of my grades....you are clear that the President proposes a budget to Congress? That the President pushes for ratification of his budget proposal? That our national budget tends to reflect the standing presidents proposal(s)? Be clear we are all aware that the president is also the commander in chief: my point is that Bin Laden was a target of our nations military long before Obama was at the helm. Further, every standing president would take credit for this effort: but in doing so, makes light of the men who actually did the job. It is interesting that you have no comment on what actually matters. Debt. That teenager. You cannot spend what you do not have. There is always an inevitable conclusion to such actions. We have all seen it first hand. Any positive programs built on an unsustainable program of spending will eventually disolve. At some point in the future we tumble. If we are talking about the history of civilzation: ask yourself if you have met any Romans lately? Ask yourself why......

Thank you for posting this! I totally agree! When did people forget that discussion is GOOD and hearing a person voice a different opinion does NOT make that person your enemy!

There are many citations for the origins and amendments to the quote. The idea behind it stands. Everyone can have an opinion. Whether or not it is based on truth or their version of truth, or if other people agree with them or not, is another story.

Cisco,
Dividing the people started with the Contract with America in 1998 by the Newly Republican Congress. The evils of Bill Clinton and the Democratic Party, they needed to bring America back. So both parties are extremely guilty of dividing upon partisan lines.
Just a thought why so many people are focused on what is dividing us, what do you think they are really doing to us in Washington? Have you ever wondered why the major corporations who benefit from the government play both sides, because in the end it is just two sides of the same coin.

Apologize, that was the 1994 Congress.

NOW HE SAID WE SHOULD VOTE FOR HIM AS REVENGE

I WILL VOTE FOR ROMNEY AS REVENGE FOR THE LAST FOUR YEARS

Must be why The Economist Magazine endorsed President Obama today.

YUP, BUT PEOPLE VOTE FOR OBAMMY BECAUSE HE IS BLACK

why does patch permit this flagrant advertisment of coach? It should be removed as spam.
