At that age they are too dumb to know any better.

They were not insulted by Romney's 47% comment nor his recap of his loss the other day, remarking on how Obama's gifts to constituents cost him. I think he was right to call them out. It shouldn't be done every day, but we all know Obama bought that election, starting with Ohio and Michigan using the auto bailouts. Call a spade a spade. Remember also, this was in a call to campaign donors, who did have a right to an explanation.

He didn't need to go out of his way to help Obama. Let's face it, Democrats play harder than Republicans. Do you remember any Democrats in Louisiana helping Bush. Nope.

Even if Obama tried to attack the Libyans or some other stunt, people would still be more worried about the storm and its aftermath.

Isn't that the bottom line. What is the point of a politician pontificating on this extremely dangerous subject? I don't understand what the end game is.

Luckily, there is no quotable term like"legitimate rape" from the gaffe. Of course, if the gaffe loses us 5000 votes in each state, we are in trouble. All campaigns are national. I wish our social conservative allies would remember that.

The dems will hold the senate 51-49 most likely.

My entire attitude is based on results. If the result of an article or post helps Obama, I get suspicious. These guys are trying to spread defeatism. All candidates have strengths and weaknesses.

Tue, 25 Sep 2012 03:30:06 +0000 http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2012/09/24/griping-about-paul-ryan-all-about-mitt-romney/#IDComment447994262 http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2012/09/24/griping-about-paul-ryan-all-about-mitt-romney/#IDComment447993268 So, who said what? I read an entire article about theoretical infighting but nobody said anything. I don't get it. Is this where I'm supposed to comment on something that doesn't exist? Tue, 25 Sep 2012 03:28:00 +0000 http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2012/09/24/griping-about-paul-ryan-all-about-mitt-romney/#IDComment447993268 http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2012/09/21/romney-and-conservative-critics-should-focus-on-obama-not-each-other/#IDComment446715847 Noonan has written many very tough articles about Obama. Problem is, no one knows about them, except for people who read the WSJ, and a handful of others. Everyone knows about Noonan criticizing Romney. She, Kristol, et al, have to consider that, when they write their articles. They can't just blindly write articles, and consider that the impacts are equal. Sun, 23 Sep 2012 07:51:51 +0000 http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2012/09/21/romney-and-conservative-critics-should-focus-on-obama-not-each-other/#IDComment446715847 http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2012/09/21/romney-and-conservative-critics-should-focus-on-obama-not-each-other/#IDComment446714859 So long as you know that conservative criticism is plastered on every msm website, and is used to demoralize turnout for Romney. I think it's pointless junk. Send the Romney campaign a private email if you have a criticism or suggestion. Noonan, Kristol, et al are being used as evidence that "not even Republicans are happy with Mitt Romney", etc. Sun, 23 Sep 2012 07:49:01 +0000 http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2012/09/21/romney-and-conservative-critics-should-focus-on-obama-not-each-other/#IDComment446714859 http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2012/08/13/a-changed-romney/#IDComment421259872 Yeah, he has a history of coming from behind in these contests this year. He saves his energy and resources and then, kaboom, he wipes out the other guy.

He is slow to anger, and stays on an even keel. Obama (from the Democrat pov) should have smothered him in honey. I'm guessing Romney knew all along that Obama was going to be a nasty campaigner.

I was surprised to hear laura ingraham whining about it as well. She was just helping the other side and confirming their bs arguments.

Turkey has isolated herself from her former protectors and benefactors with her new pro-muslim leanings. I think this will help Syria stave off an air attack because now everyone knows there will be losses.
