    Erm, since the boy has not accomplished anything positive (except killing Osama -- oh, the Seals did that, remember), his rhetoric now is how much better you will be FOUR years from now. Bwahahahahaha Good luck

    Clooney the Bagman

    While Republicans mocked President Barack Obama for holding fundraiser at the home of George Clooney, he may be the one getting the last laugh.

    The 150-person event, held Thursday night, brought in $15 million

    Numerous celebrities attended the fundraiser, including Robert Downey, Jr. and Billy Crystal. The Hollywood-heavy event gave fuel to the fire that Obama is more of a celebrity himself than a politician

    George Clooney Obama Fundraiser Nets $15 Million


    Money politics, I don't like it. But what else can you do in the US these days, to get elected? The amount of slush money revolving around elections there dwarves anywhere else- and personally I would like to see it reformed. Unusually though, Democrat Obama has more fund raising power than his 'conservative' opponents.

    Huffpo has a pretty good electoral map, Link-

    2012 Presidential Electoral Map | Huffington Post 2012 Election Dashboard


    Their current call is Obama 294, Romney 170.
    According to them, the only 'Tossup' states are Arizona, Colorado, Florida (a big one), Nth Carolina & Missouri.

    He won't take Ohio. He won't take Arizona. Florida is not in play. That 170 needs to be a larger number.

    Unusually though, Democrat Obama has more fund raising power than his 'conservative' opponents.
    Rob Reiner concedes, "We may not be at the level that the Republicans are funded, but we'll be competitive."

    The Dems perpetuate this lie in front of every camera they can. According to Ben Stein the overwhelming number of donations from millionaires go to the Democrats, in the 2008 election 90% of the million dollar and up donations went to the Democrats, the wealthy in this country overwhelmingly donate to the Democrat party, and the wealthy are overwhelmingly Democrats.

    Tending Romney- I'd say you're right there. Fla though I think is very much in play- there will certainly be a lot of dosh thrown at it, from both parties. Given some of the loopy right wing politics coming from Az, I would tend to agree with you there too- but of course there is also a considerable hispanic population to consider.

    Obama won't take Iowa, Missouri, Ohio, Florida, North Carolina or Virginia. That equals 91.

    Nevada and New Mexico can go for Romney. Add Arizona. Given the legislation passing in Arizona lately. I see Romney taking Arizona.

    Stands to reason that these millionares who donate to Democrats and their causes know that the current policies in the Republican Party is not healthy for their interests. Economies are a balance of wealth, and for a long time now it's all been tipping to the Right.

    Heh...Rush lays it all out: Rush: This is what I do know ...
    (response to the WaPo article "Romney bullied a boy 48 years ago")



    RUSH: I'll tell you, here's what I know. Here's what I know, and this is after only an hour of... and, by the way, you must know, I have to tell you what this feels like. Guilt. I only did an hour of show prep, but I feel like I'm skipping school today. I feel like I'm not fulfilling expectations, so we'll see. This is what I know.

    Mitt Romney was not at Chappaquiddick. Mitt Romney has not been accused of rape. Mitt Romney did not have an affair with a mob babe. He didn't have an affair with an actress who committed suicide later on. Mitt Romney did not father a child out of wedlock. Mitt Romney did not support the tapping of Martin Luther King's phone. Mitt Romney was never a member of the Ku Klux Klan. Mitt Romney did not lie about his law school grades. [full transcript]

    Good points. I see it the same way.

    Obviously, Texas and its electoral votes will go to Romney also.

    As Sabang noted in the post above hits, FL seems to be in play and will be interesting to follow.

    Good post Boon. Don't forget that JFK's personal aide provided the president with interns who he forced himself onto and in one case the president directed an intern to perform oral sex on the personal aide while the president watched. That's the kind of man JFK was.

    Bush Fatigue is no longer a factor though Obama will try to make it so. This means states like Missouri, Iowa, North Carolina and Virginia which went for Obama last time will not go for him this time. They will return to the Republican fold. Florida will return to the Republicans also. The only reason these states are considered up for grabs is because of the fluke created by Bush Fatigue in 2008.

    What Obama is worried about is Obama Fatigue. People have had it with him. He is losing the independents. He is retaining single women but he is losing married women. He has lost white males. He has lost the elderly. Students won't turn out, for them the novelty has worn off. The novelty has worn off for everyone.

    Obama’s 2008 campaign exploited people's hopes and it exploited their faith in a leader at a never before seen low. The fraud was perpetrated in a 3rd world-cult-leader-worship fashion which cannot be run past the electorate again.




    For everyone the embarrassment of their hopeful naiveté still sticks. Exploitation of people’s vulnerabilities that low can only be run once in their lifetimes, maybe twice but not so soon after the first offense.

    Highly optimistic atta- but as they say, hope springs eternal. Naturally, our 'calls' will be compared to the actual election results in Novemebr.
    Iowa is considered something of an electoral bellwether state and currently Obama is 10 points ahead there, 51/41. Better be hoping for some dismal news.

    Don't think he ever 'had' them- wasn't this the only major demographic in which he didn't win a majority in the 2008 election? It was a close thing, anyway.

    Ohio is the bellwether state and the deciding state. As far as white males go Obama is crashing.

    Let's try this one more time, shall we?

    It seems Obama gave a campaign speech in front of a couple's garage in Reno the other day - btw, they didn't say they'd vote for him but that's besides the point. This News Item seems to be getting routinely deleted so here goes one more time:

    Obama raises $44M for campaign, Dems in April

    President Barack Obama raised a combined $43.6 million in April for his campaign and the Democratic Party as he faces a unifying Republican effort around Mitt Romney for the White House.

    Obama's monthly fundraising haul fell short of the $53 million he raised in March, but he remains far ahead of Romney in cash on hand. The president also pulled in about $15 million at a Hollywood fundraising event this month.

    "This election is going to be close, given the historic challenges this country faced when the president came into office," campaign manager Jim Messina told supporters in a YouTube video released Wednesday. The campaign said it added 169,000 new donors to its rolls last month.

    snip

    Obama's campaign and the Democratic Party had about $124 million cash on hand at the end of March, while Romney and the GOP reported $43 million left in the bank at the end of March (that enthusiasm for Romney ), federal reports show.

    If Obama hopes to have a snowball's chance in Hell of even being the Democratic nominee, he's got to get beyond this:



    At age 18, Barack Obama admittedly arrived at Occidental College a committed revolutionary Marxist. What was the source of Obama's foundation in Marxism? Throughout his 2008 Presidential campaign and term in office, questions have been raised regarding Barack Obama's family background, economic philosophy, and fundamental political ideology. Dreams from My Real Father is the alternative Barack Obama "autobiography," offering a divergent theory of what may have shaped our 44th President's life and politics.



    President Barack Obama’s real father is not Barack Obama Sr. (bottom right), but the late communist journalist Frank Marshall Davis (upper right), according to a new film. obamasrealfather.com)

    As mentioned before, this guy's toast...
