I don't like those "pure independent" numbers.
you go to the most inane sites on the internet to post your news from, of which your news is bullshit. When i have to search for other sites and see it all linked back to a hack blog, and referenced on ar15forum.com I know i'm in for a sneak peek behind the genius of kosmo. i mean i'm less and less inclined that you even try

had a thought
pelosi should tell boehner that democrats won't support a continuing resolution unless they allow the bush tax cuts for under 250,000 to be voted on as a separate bill
so boehner can shut down the government by either not dealing with republicans (who want any CR to defund affordable care act) or not dealing with democrats

So you're saying this diner chat was not staged, as originally reported?:
Is your problem with the site you have to go to or the facts? What is on your list of approved sites, Kos, TPM, 538, NYT, what else?

another turd of a failure of a post. keep 'em coming
the diner chat was clearly staged, i'm saying that no one is saying otherwise other then your site. I mean i've tried to read as much as i can following links to some skeevy sites and still see no mention of anyone claiming otherwise.
The Oregon Live article clearly states...
Unscheduled doesn't mean it was a surprise visit with random people. I mean, you think they are really that dumb? Its your singular shittastic blog making that portion up.

keep trying...
On the surface they don't look too good (though also not terrible) for Obama. But we need something to compare them to. I can imagine all negative ads tend to be judged harshly but are effective regardless.
Could be wrong though... are there scores available for a negative ad we know was highly successful (the swift boat one, for example)? That might be a good baseline.
And he will keep trying until people finally start actively ignoring him.
I know he's a fun conservative boogyman to fight, but it doesn't lead anywhere. I have only seen one or two threads where his presence lead to actual discussion instead of a ridiculous side argument about some inane link he found.
This thread deserves better conservative representation.

At least it was about healthcare. He could have sat down with some Veterans and could have been asked about gay marriage only to find out the veterans were partners.
That would have been embarr -- oh wait...

Mitt Romney walks back comments on Olympic troubles as he kicks off UK visit
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/ele...pic-troubles-kicks-uk-visit-article-1.1122189
haha Romney didn't know our Labour party leader's name (Ed Miliband). He kept calling him Mr Leader. He isn't even in the government.
He looks so fucking weird when he talks.

Heaven forbid someone get their news from a newspaper and not one of the inane, unprofessional, unsourced blogs you get yours from.
It's sad how many "I Don't Believe the Liberal Media" bumper stickers I see here in Oklahoma.
*sigh*
I RAN THE WINTER OLYMPICS IN SALT LAKE CITY GUYS SO YOU SHOULD TAKE WHAT I HAVE TO SAY AT HEART BECAUSE I KNOW WHAT IM DOING
Mitt screws up in trying to remind people of the only worthwhile thing he can campaign on at this point.
I'm in West Virginia, so I know that feel bro.

Yeah, do completely unscheduled events and all of a sudden you're arguing with a gay Vietnam veteran about the constitutionality of gay marriage in front of his husband.

You're a big guy.
Romney is an absolute fucking disaster. How badly can a foreign trip go? Particularly to Britain, the tutorial level of American presidential foreign affairs.
Honsestly, if you can't get through a trip in Britain without causing a scene with their prime minister, you shouldn't even leave the country.
What DOES he have to campaign on at this point? This was supposed to be his "look presidential in other countries trip" right? Even Scott Walker said that he can't just run as "not Obama"

There would have been a much bigger meltdown in '08, especially after the Palin pick.
If libs can stomach the outcomes of the 2000 and 2004 elections, they can stomach just about anything.
I don't know, there you were just missing out on a couple of long time Washington insider white dudes. We're talking about the Messiah.

Never heard of 95% of these.
Okay, I'll admit; I laughed at this one. :lol
See, we can find common ground. Just like this is the most hilarious thing in the election yet:
Team Obama To Mark 100 Days Until Election With 4200 Events
http://livewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/entries/team-obama-to-mark-100-days-until-election
You think that's bad? It's nothing compared to the meltdown of the American economy that would follow.
There's some great conservative representation. ToxicAdam, AlteredBeast, etc. Problem is the Republicans have gone so far off the deep end that even these guys are fed up with it.
Remember, the Democrats would be a center-right party in most developed nations.

The best part will be 4 years of conservative whining about how spineless & lame Romney is.
Beck and Limbaugh CAN'T WAIT to start tearing Mitt a new asshole again after all their tongue-biting.

And the Gloabal economy goes right with it....
Wow, he does look really really awkward in this. His entire body is just stiff, and his hands are lifeless at his side. He looks like a kid, scared to death as he gives a speech in front of his class. Kind of weird because I've never noticed him like that before with him.
Disbelief isn't really the right word. I still believe Romney has a really great chance to win, and so it wouldn't surprise me. No, what I'd feel is disgust and disdain for my fellow Americans that voted for that turd. Most of all I'd probably feel a helluva lot of fear for my future, not just the shorter term, but the longer term. Now's the time when my wife and I are supposed to be building a life and family and planning for the future. I really truly believe Romney's policies will screw up the economy, which would screw up the trajectory of the rest of our lives. That's not even mentioning the possibility of messing with medicare and social security to a point where we're screwed with that, too, or his possible appointments to the supreme courts which will have a lot of consequences to our future. Yeah, I'd just be pretty afraid I guess.
He is so conservative.
Dude would totally vote for George HW and the early 90's Republicans if someone could bring them back.
I agree, because lately it seems like he's been doing slightly better at being less stiff when talking to people.

I'd love if we could get back to HW levels of conservative insanity.
Its like one of those really bad commercials that are trying to sale you something.
Fuck. If that's the litmus I guess I'm conservative too. I'd vote for HW
Puddles is right. I probably would have voted for Jon Huntsman if he won the nomination. I strongly supported McCain in 2000 and Kemp in 1996.
But, I do vote for Democrats sometimes. I've pulled the lever for people like John Glenn, Sherrod Brown, Marcy Kaptur and a handful of other locals that people wouldn't recognize.
If the GOP Super PACs' plan is character assassination (a la 2004), it won't work nearly as well on Obama as it did on Kerry.
AlteredBeast
Fork 'em, Sparky!
True, character assassination doesn't work against incumbents like it does with challengers.
War Peaceman
You're a big guy.
It is absurd to think they are continuing to try - from nomination to now they have been doing it. To no avail, outside of voters who wouldn't have voted democrat anyway.

Obama's also weathered about as much brutal character assassination as they can muster over the last four years. He has only a few things in his past that they could use (Rev. Wright, etc) and the GOP constantly harping on them has, IMO, backfired because now its just background noise.

Going by his posting, Kosmo has not had an original thought in his entire life.
