Let Me Be Perfectly Clear…Barack Obama Is Losing

It Will Be A Tough Next Four Years Being In Charge Of Everything.

“He’s basically been biting the hand that fed him in ’08. … I would bet 25% of the people here were supporters of Obama in ’08. And they’re here now.“

-2008 Obama Backer, Michael Zambrelli(HT: Gateway Pundit)

A little while back I put up a post that rattled some cages. I opined that if the election were held 27 June 2012, that Barack Obama would have been reelected by the skin of his teeth. I also opined that “…a confluence of recent trends in fundraising, burn rate and overall enthusiasm suggests that Barack Obama will have to significantly change his current trajectory if he wants to beat Mitt Romney this November.”

I will basically update that column by saying that if the election were held 11 July 2012, we would all go to bed cranky at 3:45 in the morning and not know who our next president would be. In a confluence of recent trends in fundraising, burn-rate and all the rest of the stuff you could throw in, Barack Obama’s Presidency is entering the vortex that appears before a well-earned trip down the commode plumbing. Here are the signs that nothing he has done thus far has reversed his sclerotic decline.

According to John Hindraker at Powerline Barack Obama’s special friends are getting treated to the following email

We’re getting outraised — a first for a sitting president, if this continues. Not just by the super PACs and outside groups that are pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into misleading ads, but by our opponent and the Republican Party, which just outraised us for the second month in a row.

The most recent jobs report has led Brave Sir Barack to loudly change the sublect. First he tried to spin it as a step forward. He then
unleashed his class warfare proposal
of extending the Bush Tax Cuts, but only to people earning less than $250K per year.

This does nothing to change hiring except to take money out of the coffers of small businesses that would pay more taxes under the proposal. This suggests that President Obama has no clue and doesn’t care enough to buy one on how to fight the joblessness rate still reflected ominously in the “Scariest Jobs Chart Ever.”

This President has failed. His primary challenge in 2008 involved fixing a broken economy. He took over a major swath of the insurance and auto industries instead. He issued a pork-barreling stimulus plan that rewarded his cronies at the expense of the suffering. His intransigence has led to the polling RS colleague Dan Spencer wrote of earlier today that showed Mitt Romney with a 14% lead among independent voters.

I conclude by stating that our current President has outstayed his platitudes, and nobody listens to his annoying drone. He could still win, but it becomes a harder swim to shore every day that he continues to waste energy gripping about Bain Capital instead of describing his own 2nd Term Agenda. President Obama is now more likely to be unseated than any incumbent not named Bush that I can remember. Jimmy Carter looked better against Reagan at this stage of his 1980 reelection campaign than Obama looks against Romney. When your opposition is running a drowning campaign, the times call for sticking a live fire hose right in his mouth. Barack Obama is vulnerable and we can finish his Presidency in 2012.

        Thanks.

          everyone would just shrug it off as liberal bias, right?

          Picking and choosing which polls you like doesn’t sit too well with me. It’s just meaningless cheerleading. Anything can and likely will happen between now and Election Day. The race could go either way.

          That truth shouldn’t effect your level of support for the GOP nominee one iota. If the likelihood of you voting for Romney depends on a feeling that he’s already winning, you’re really not much of a conservative.

          • Vegas_Rick

            “If the likelihood of you voting for Romney depends on a feeling that he?s already winning, you?re really not much of a conservative.”

            How you got that from either comment above is beyond me. Project much?

            .

          • Joliphant

            Then it is very significant when they report results that are against the bias.

            Really its not about picking and choosing polls its about realizing you need a little Kentucky windage with many of them.

          • jude68

            Come on Buddy….give me a break….The WAPO poll means nothing, as does any poll, that skews either way 5 or more percentage points. The fact that you miss big time is the Historical Perspective. Presidents basically will end up with their Approval Rating…THAT IS A HISTORICAL FACT….no poll makes a difference. Gallup has great history on this and outside of 1972 and McGovern it is RIGHT ON CUE!!

            That is what I look at….Polls skewed mean nothing. That is to drive the news cycle. But when you are a sitting President that for the most part is stuck 45-47 percent approval…THAT IS NOT A GOOD SIGN.

            In reference though…when was the last time you saw a Poll that oversampled Republicans by 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10?? THEY DO NOT EXIST SIR!! That is neither cheering or jumping up and down…it is a fact. 99 percent of the polls coming out have been oversampling Dems from 5 to 10 percent. Many to the right of 2008 which there is no way Obama has a prayer of doing.

            Another way to look at it….Obama needs millions NOW to try to knock Romney out…that is why he and all his surrogates are all over the TV and in every paper trying to to attack Romney over Bain, Being Moron, Wealth, Bermuda, Immigration, Outsourcing and more…Romney stays on the Economy. The fact is Obama is trying everything to discredit him now and it is not working. Obama has not moved the Approval Meter even with Immigration Bounce, Supreme Court win and endless attacks on Romney from MSM.

            So look at Approval from source like Gallup, which even skews a little Dem, but nowhere near the others. That Approval rating is what is making Obama’s team nervous….and it dropped back to 44 percent.

          • APA Guy

            2010 election demographics showed party ID to be a 35-35 split. This poll was skewed toward Dems for a reason.

            If you are interested in “truth”, riddle the class this: How does Mitt Romney remain dead even with Obama when he wins Independent voters by a 14-point margin?

            The truth is right there for you should you choose to accept it.

  • gbenton

    I’ve always supported a 100% repeal strategy for Obamacare and am wary of the ‘replace’ bit GOP folks tack on to the mission.

    But I really found this article by Pat Caddell (the only sane Democrat?) compelling because he appears to outline a strategy to remove Obamacare’s ‘popular parts’ from the narrative for Dems and just stick them with the negatives (mandate, taxes, etc).

    He suggested that a straight up repeal that included the popular parts tomorrow would allow the Dems to perhaps turn the issue on the GOP…

    Anyone else have thoughts on this

    http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/07/10/Taxes-andtrust-2

    …because I think it goes to the heart of the Romney path to victory.

    • flahorsedentist

      I read both articles by Pat Caddell and thought it was an absolutely brilliant piece. By making the Dems defend a tax increase it would have a tremendous effect on them not having political cover of repealing parts that have public support. The things like pre-existing conditions, adult children kept on parents policies. It should be adopted as a very solid strategy to take the lifeblood from the bill-the tax/mandate. I just hope it is not too late to turn our troops around and play into the trap of total repeal.

      • gbenton

        with the argument that GOP has replacements for important reforms and the hollow shell of Obamacare needs to go… after Romney is President

  • earlgrey

    I dont’ take anything for granted. Too scary.

  • jaykali

    In politics the Obamacare thing really sent me for a loop. I was positive that the mandate would get struck down. I had read the tea leaves. And there have been other things lately that make me think, ya Obama could actually win somehow. I have thought he would lose since Obamacare passed and since he’s been the most God-awful prez EVAH but there are still a lot of ppl duped by what he ‘represents’ and don’t pay attention to what he actually does. We have a lot of the country locked into ideological positions so only a small swath of ppl decide elections, therefore it IS possible the prez can get relected. HOW?!?!? I have no freaking idea but I am seeing things through conservative glasses. I do like that the trends are going our way but Romney thus far hasn’t quite nailed the argument and the Prez still will say anything to get elected so I am not in the camp that he is definitely losing. No way.

    • ww2nd95

      I honestly think Romney is doing alright, although I think he’s screwed up a couple of times with messaging. After the ObamaCare ruling came down, he should have had a prepared statement ready to go, rather then days later. And there never should have been a flip flop about the mandate issue either. He should have either bitten the bullet and said how he truly feels and stuck with it’s a penalty (I don’t think Fehrnstrom just pulled that out of the air) or he should have just kept his mouth shut and let Fehrnstrom’s words hang.. It’s a silly argument either way, as it doesn’t truly matter what it is, as it’s going to be called a tax on the right and penalty on the left no matter what Romney said. It just looked clumsy.

      And the whole Hampton fundraiser thing.. Who in the hell thought it was wise to allow those reporters to walk up and down that line of super luxury cars getting opinions to twist and take out of context? Some of those people I honestly think were Obama plants with some of the answers they gave…. I think that plays in to the narrative that Axelrod is trying to paint Romney as the out of touch elitist.

      He may be ahead in some polls and he should be considering his opponent, but he needs to watch himself.. I don’t think hating Obama will be enough to unseat him, if people don’t like Romney anymore. I honestly think he could do with a new group of advisers as the Fox pointed out.

  • Tbone

    he seems to have hired Bob Dole’s campaign team.

  • hotflash50

    What a great challenge to have. Looking forward to it.

  • Viet71

    But because he’s the incumbent, Romney has to present a compelling reason to support him. Not to me. But to some Dems, Hispanics, Blacks, gays, and especially indies.

    Everyone who has won the presidency has been his own best adviser. Romney better take this advice.

  • LibertarianHawk

    The conventional wisdom: Obama wins a close race.

    But how are we supposed to explain the smattering of Democratic politicians who are doing things like refusing to endorse him and refusing to attend the convention?

    Now, it’s one thing for Dems from a state like West Virginia to do this. This is a state that Obama will lose by a huge margin. It’s akin to a Vermont Republican spurning GWB in order to protect his own political standing.

    But….North Carolina? This is a state Obama won in 2008 — and the state the Dems have chosen to host their convention. Or Missouri? Obama barely lost Missouri in ’08, as I recall. And Claire McCaskill was one of his earliest backers.

    Or how do you explain what Bill Clinton’s been saying? You might write off his “stellar” comment about Romney as mere nicety — but it wasn’t long after that when he said that all the Bush tax cuts should be extended….knowing full well that Obama was going to propose extending them only up to $250K.

    Or how do you explain Ed Rendell saying that Obama is an “albatross” around the party’s neck?

    These are not the sorts of things you’d expect to see happen to a strong incumbent. We hear that Obama’s going to win….we see people on his side doing all kinds of things that suggest they don’t expect him to.

    Something doesn’t compute.

    • dragan

      I agree that Romney is ahead even though MSM may cite otherwise. But Romney needs to ensure that he is able to effectively handle the mud (Swiss bank account, offshoring etc) thrown by the O team. In 2004 there were scores of Repubs in non R districts who ran away from W. So nothing big there.

      I am waiting for the Romney war chest to start working in the battleground states. Right now, in the ad wars, Romney is nowhere to be found. I hope Romney stops playing defense and goes on the offense.

      • LibertarianHawk

        Let’s pick a Bush 2000 state: how about….Missouri.

        Bush won the state in 2000 by about 3 points. A close race — probably not a state that could be taken for granted in 2004. Clinton won the state in both ’92 and ’96.

        Now imagine that, say, Kit Bond had distanced himself from Bush in 2004. Or Jim Talent. Or…pick your favorite prominent Missouri Republican. I’m not talking about people from Dem states or districts.

        This is what is happening with Obama….not in deep red states, but in states like North Carolina and Missouri — one of which he won, the other he narrowly lost. And it goes beyond that — such as comments from Rendell and Clinton (or Cory Booker).

        Obama’s in trouble — and these things are the best proof.

    • APA Guy

      First, Dick Morris (who knows a thing or two about electing presidents) correctly points out that an even race means a Romney blowout, as by a 10 to 1 spread undecided voters almost always break for the challenger i.e. Romney.

      But the bigger problem is Obama’s polling among Indies. The WAPO poll today WAY over-sampled Dems. With Romney winning Indies by a 14-point spread, the 2010 turnout demographic of 35-35 Dem-Republican would make that poll a 6-7 point advantage for Romney…even before you factor in undecided voters.

      The other thing you can’t discount is the enthusiasm gap between the parties. Republicans are riled up to whip Obama and get him out of the White House. Conversely, Obama’s leftist base HATES Obamacare (they wanted the public option/single payer) and whines that the stimulus wasn’t larger.

      In short, the forces to remove Obama are far greater than the forces to re-elect him. He’s doomed if things remain as they are right now.

      • ffc99

        LibHawk’s point.

        • APA Guy

          Obviously, it wasn’t LH’s conventional wisdom…my bad.

      • LibertarianHawk

        ….the point of my post was to question the conventional wisdom.

        And, if you think it’s not the CW that Obama is going to win a close race, you should broaden your selection of reading material. I know what Dick Morris is saying. It’s not that I don’t respect his opinions — it’s just that it’s not representative of the majority of pundit-class thought.

        Or, check out Intrade — where Obama still holds a decent advantage over Romney.

        But the point I was making is that there are quite a few things going on that, well, don’t seem to mesh with that CW.

        • APA Guy

          Wow…had no idea THAT was my gospel when it comes to Obama v. Romney :)

          Look, Morris has been through this stuff and back…and he’s not the only person saying Obama is in a heap of trouble, but you’re free to believe what you will.

          • ffc99

            you’re completely missing the point of what LibHawk is saying…

          • acat

            The way things are going, Obama isn’t going to win .. it won’t even be close.

            This is a very good example of how much of an echo chamber “our” media exist in….

          • notpropagandized

            If the masses knew the trajectory of the Obama campaign so aptly demonstrated by Joe Biden’s strident and desperate exhortations to the troops yesterday, then viewership of election news would plummet along with Obama’s chances.

            But Meghan Kelly gets paid handsomely with that compelling voice and good looks that together with viewers desire for drama, they keep tuned in all the way to 9 or 10pm EST on election night.

    • renl57

      The Dems who are avoiding their convention are in tough races in their own districts and states. But that doesn’t mean that Obama cares about winning those states.

      The Presidential election will be won or lost in about 11 swing states. There are other states which Obama can’t win where local Dems are in trouble.

      Sure, Dems in West Virginia have to be worried about losing their own elections. But Obama wrote off West Virginia a long time ago.

  • renl57

    The RCP average has had Obama’s approval rating between 46% and 48% now for over a month. The line is practically straight.

    Even if those polls oversample Dems, it still means that 40% of the electorate approves of Obama.

    It might be helpful to Romney’s ad campaign to find out why 40% of the country still approves of his opponent.

    I can’t do a poll. But I have browsed many left-wing blogs whose diarists are great admirers of Obama.

    And what I’ve noticed is, they admire Obama for reasons *other than* jobs and economic growth. They admire Obama for protecting the environment, or helping patients with pre-existing conditions get health insurance, or wanting to fight global warming, or wanting to treat illegal aliens “humanely.”

    Romney has been harping on jobs, jobs, jobs. But he might be surprised to find out how many Americans have other priorities.

    He shouldn’t be. I remember a woman in 2004 who lost her job when Bush was President but voted for him anyway–because, she said, he’s pro-life like she is.

    Sometimes one cares more about causes greater than himself.

    • renl57

      Single women support Obama because they believe he’ll protect their right to use abortion as a last-resort birth control method.

      • goodgovernance

        which is why I’d feel better if Romney was making more of a positive case for himself than just criticizing Obama.

        And while I’ve been criticized for having this opinion, I’d just like to point out the Wall Street Journal op-ed board, Jack Welch, Rupert Murdoch, George Will, Haley Barbour, and other conservatives and establishment Republicans hold the same point of view.

    • ww2nd95

      Romney cannot win this race on Obama hate alone. As plenty of polls have pointed toward, a lot of people dislike his policies, but “like” him personally. Romney is going to have to stand on his own ideas soon.

      If the election becomes framed around a Romney caricature, rather then a referendum on Obama’s policies, forget it. Sure, people who pay attention may feel the caricature argument is silly and I would agree, but the whole “Who would you rather have a beer with” helped Jr beat Gore. And if Romney isn’t careful, that same question could help Obama beat Romney.

      • naraht

        Unfortunately the “Who would you rather have a beer with?” question in 2012 has a huge asterisk on it. It becomes “Who would you rather have a beer with given that one candidate’s religion forbids him from drinking beer?” (and any attempt to finesse that by having Romney drink root beer or something like that, would just look odd)

        There is no question in my mind that if the Republican primary had come down to “Who would you rather have a beer with?” that Perry would have won easily (Followed by Pawlenty, I guess)

  • jj98

    Today I received a Romney $$$ appeal form letter. A return envelope was enclosed. It was not postpaid, which in my experience is unprecedented in a Republican Presidential campaign. Perhaps a disproportionate number of postpaid envelopes had been coming back stuffed with shredded junk mail.

    In the Washington (DC/MD) and New York areas I’m seeing increasing numbers of Obama 2012 bumper stickers — more in Washington, of course. I’ve seen a couple of Romney stickers and more Ron Paul stickers. I have yet to see a Romney poster, billboard or yard sign.

    • APA Guy

      I can’t imagine why that would be :)

      Oh, on a related note, I am still scratching my head as to why I haven’t seen any Obama signs here in Indiana when he raises the taxes of working people, destroys their currency, forces health insurance on them, and destroys their economy and currency.

    • ashland_avenue

      Altho my sampe of calls to independents is not large enough to be scientific, the take away is that Mitt has a slight lead.

    • wintermute

      If I lived in those areas, either.

      • naraht

        In rural enough areas of both states it would be fine. Upstate NY is close to even between parties, I think and Maryland does have some areas that are pretty red (Western MD panhandle) and parts of the Eastern Shore (the Maryland part of the Delmarva).

        Having said that, there are certainly areas where certain “save the sign” measures would be useful…

    • Finrod

      I see maybe one car with an Obama 2012 sticker to about every 8-10 cars with an Obama sticker from 2008.

      As was indicated on fivethirtyeight , Romney could single handedly save the planet from Aliens and he might get within the margin of error in DC. In Maryland, the only place where money is likely to get spent is in keeping the redistricted 6th Republican like its predecessor.

      The Maryland and New York senate races are likely to only attract money in a *huge* wave election…

  • Joliphant

    And Obama has been trying sell our dead cat bounce as a recovery and the voters just aren’t buying it. I don’t see this economy surging ahead in less than 4 months.

    Unfortunately to get the real change we need of getting the federal governments fingers out of everyone’s pie we may need a much worse disaster than the one we have had. It seems no matter how many times its demonstrated that reducing regulations and taxes is a great thing it doesn’t penetrate into the long term memory of the electorate.

  • notpropagandized

    It was very obvious when viewing Joe Biden bully his audience on the desperate necessity to perform well enough to re-elect our Dear Leader that they’ve (Obama et al) have lost it all.

    I’ve seen this before in other venues. When exhortation of the troops acquires such a strident tenor, the troops thinking of deserting the cause begin to transform into actual action to desert the cause.

    Dims will likely get their 46% and win handily in NYC and Boston and SanFran/LA, etc. but the “prospect” for a rout increases.

  • jude68

    I have a deep respect for Jay Cost. He is without doubt one of the most objective and thorough journalists that I have seen. His breakdown of the race, by region, by race, deomgraphics and region is excellent. He wraps this in the Historical Context and it is very insightful and informative. Please take a look.

    Basically, Obama is in trouble and he clearly shows why and how….and his historical references add great credence. The fact, is 2012 will be no 2008 for Obama….and his approval numbers are stuck!

  • rightlane1111

    It’s one thing to hide below the radar…but for how long? Romney…or his aids…if you are reading this…time to get on TV…time to start to write editorials….time for you to get in touch with Conservative Media newsprint.

    AND…most importantly…while Obama is painting Bain as an Outsourcer…did it ever occur to you that by shutting down border stations…Obama is “outsourcing” American jobs within his own country???Just a NOVEL thought. Anyone know anyone in his campaign…might want to pass it along.

    • Repair_Man_Jack

      I think the media has intimidated the GOP out of using immigration as effectively as it could be used. The healthcare cost angle of it in the SW US is a huge local issue in border states. If we want to flip NM, we should be finding a way to get this on the air down there.

      • garfieldjl

        I could run a better campaign for Romney than his campaign people are running things right now. While I can come up with some decent ideas, I know I’m not a good manager…

        We have one of three possible problems:
        1. Romney doesn’t have a backbone when facing liberals.

        2. Romney agrees with a lot of what the liberals say.

        3. Romney needs to fire a lot of his campaign staff, because they clearly support a lot of the left’s talking points…

        Gingrich, Perry (despite his lack of debate skills), Cain, Bachman, Santorum, heck even Ron Paul (which is scary) could be running a better campaign right now.

        Romney showed he was very good at smearing conservatives, but he and his staff seem to have a hard time standing up to Liberals… I seriously hope this changes or Obama will be re-elected.

        • Repair_Man_Jack

          Oh, that’s right! They aren’t anymore. Romney has already dispatch them all. They each had a chance to run a better campaign than ROmney a couple of months ago. It didn’t happen. Please move on.

          • garfieldjl

            Repair_Man_Jack, do you want an honest assessment of the situation or not?

            Conservatives didn’t consolidate behind anyone until it was too late, if you notice how the media built someone up then did their best to destroy that person while moving on to their next victim to build up, and by and large left Romney alone… It was because they felt Romney was the easiest for Obama to beat, so they did their best to keep us all divided so Romney picked up the furthest left leaning people of the Republican party.

            The one thing they miscalculated on, is just how unpopular Obama’s policies are.

            If we looked at any of the other contenders, they would be slamming Obama right now, not hiding in a hole somewhere like a gopher…

            Have we seen Romney coming out swinging, NO, we haven’t he’s been mostly AWOL. There is plenty of things Romney can be going after Obama on, and it is extremely frustrating to me that Romney is behaving like a beached whale!

          • Repair_Man_Jack

            Mitt had opponents to his left on some issues as well. You can’t get much more to the left side of the GOP than Obama’s Ambassador to CHina.

          • garfieldjl

            Johnson probably split Ron Paul’s constituency, he had more in common with Ron Paul than he did with Romney. Huntsman left the race before New Hampshire voted if I remember correctly.

          • tnfriendofcoal101368

            “had given him a ticket to ride.” He got out after getting crushed in Iowa, New Hampshire and polling at less than 2% in South Carolina. He didn’t even have lack of money as an excuse as his Super Pac actually had more money than anybody but Romney’s because of Huntsman’s dad. Really give it up, “b, g, or s” would have done better than Romney is a silly argument because “b, g or s” all had their chance and were beaten rather convincingly.

          • garfieldjl

            Romney’s current campaign is not behaving like it did in the primaries, not even close. It’s like everyone got replaced with incompetitent idiots. If Romney’s campaign behaved like this in the primaries, let’s face the facts Romney wouldn’t be the nominee in spite of the media shilling for him.

          • tnfriendofcoal101368

            Romney is behaving exactly like he did in the primaries. He has been on the non stop attack on Obama’s record; when Obama attacks him on Bain, he doesn’t give a crap because swing voters don’t give a crap. Over at Politico, you could see Mitt Romney went in front of the NAACP today. Here is what Roger Simon wrote (and let me assure Roger Simon HATES Mitt Romney).

            “So Romney did not come before the NAACP to get black votes, but to get respect. It was a gut check. He had the mettle to show up and the fortitude to speak his mind. ?I will eliminate expensive non-essential programs like Obamacare,? Romney said to prolonged boos from the audience. ?If you want a president who will make things better in the African American community, you are looking at him,? Romney said to giggles from the audience.”

            He went to lion’s den and told them the election was about a choice. They could choose to keep a President who had presided over 15% unemployment in the black community or they could give their vote to a man who work to change that. They could choose to keep an administration that considers it ok that while black students comprise 17% of all students, they are 42% of students in the worst performing schools or they could choose a President who would tie federal funds to students and allow the parents to choose the school. They could choose the President who wants to bury them in a tsunami of government programs like Obamacare, welfare, etc or one who wants a rising tide that lifts all boats.

            Romney went to send a message to the Obama campaign. It is this: I will compete with you for every single vote and I’ll do it on the basis of I am simply more qualified to President than you are.

            The fact as I have wrote and RMJ has wrote that the polls show Romney moving ahead are the voters agree with him i.e. Romney is kicking Obama to the curb just like he beat Santorum and Gingrich.

    Let’s just use the NAACP. Fox News and the Conservatives played and replayed that Romney was booed. What did they hope to accomplish by that? Here is what I would have done if I were advising Romney. I would have written an editorial in the WSJ exactly what percentage of Black Americans are out of work and why. I would have brought up the boos and told them the better way I had to solve the problem. I would have openly asked the question…because then one must THINK to answer.What happens when American border stations are closed and Illegals are permitted access to the USA at will???. Will they be the ones that will take American jobs? This is a country of laws and laws it must be. If I am elected president, I promise that I will improve jobs by 1,2,3….making it very SIMPLE for anyone to understand…not because anyone is stupid…but because the simpler it is written the harder it is to twist and spin.
    I would talk to legal Latinos about the rule of law being abandoned by this president. I would say, as he did at the NAACP that he would be working for ALL Americans. That we could be a united country if not for Obama…and then I would ask…how many times has Barack Obama divided us by gender, race, wealth, religion, region, nationality?

    And, finally that all peoples deserve a better life and ALL AMERICAN companies need to be assured that doing business in the USA is better for our country….etc….etc. Kitty…you know my line…I need not go further.

    Romney needs to get OUT IN FRONT of the Left’s message and turn it around and he can only do that by MASS communication, TV Media…Print Media, and even having someone from his team writing blogs on the Southern papers and on this website.

    I’m about to start my national blog…a little scared…don’t know why..I’ve been doing this for years. I have RedState linked but I have to check with the mgmt about mentioning particulars…because it might be against rules. So…if I can…hopefully I can write my blog and cross post with a diary here. Big works are a comin’. WOW. Anyway…excited and scared at the same time.
