Romney, Rubio Should Beat Obama, Biden

[JoeB131]

Obama will lose all of those states

Um, no, he probably won't.

Let's take a look at Missouri. McCain only won it by about 4,000 votes last time.

Now take into account-

They really, really don't like Mormons in Missouri. They had an extermination order against them until 1976!

Romney came in third place in 2008.

Romney came in way behind Santorum this time.

Clinton carried the state in both 1992 and 1996. Democrats can do well there.

Georgia is a bit tougher. McCain won that by 200,000 votes. But again, lots of Evangelicals who won't vote for a Mormon.

True, a Democrat hasn't carried Georgia since 1980, and that was when a Native son was the incumbant president.

Here's the thing about Romney. He's not going to win Massachusetts, and he's not going to Win Michigan. Usually, it's a bad sign when your candidate can't win his home state. Romney can't win either of his.

 

[tinydancer]

No question Rubio is much more likable and at ease in public

He would make a good ticket

I say he waits till 2016. Or they will taint him now.

Romany will win MI, Republicans run this state now.. Totally all branches, and as I said, this is not 08. Obama will lose all the states you mentioned

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Obama dumps Biden

 

[rightwinger]

No question Rubio is much more likable and at ease in public

Being on a losing ticket is not a disaster for a VP. they get visibility and emerge as the favorite in the next election cycle.

It's a healthily fought race that keeps the media and the momentum on the Republicans and their issues which is quite necessary against this media savvy incumbent President.

Overall? There needs to be a groundswell. Hopefully it begins soon.

it'll begin once the primaries are over, thats when we organize to defeat Obama. He has a lot of money so it won't be easy

 

[JDzBrain]

You are astonishingly full of crap!

If you believe that 72% of Americans have read let alone understood the Constitution then you are a lot dumber that I had previously thought. If you think more than one percent of Americans have ever read the entire Affordable Health Care Act then you are even dumber than I had thought when I was sure you were stupid.

I would be willing to wager that not one % of Americans could come close to reciting the constitution. Hell I engage in this political forum several times a day and still have to read the constitution from time to time.

So what you think is plausible that at the time of your "pol" 72 % of Americans had researched all of the provisions of The Affordable Health Care Act and deemed it unconstitutional and could point out which ammendments it violates.

You are WAAAAAAAY TOOOOOOOOO full of shit.

Ooooooh......Did somone's huggy give them a wedgey?

Hey DUMB ASS, they don't HAVE to read it to know that the federal government FORCING them to purchase ANYTHING is unconstitutional. That's just common sense if you've got HALF a brain!

But just to sooth your farrowed brow, have a look bight one. Straight off the Gallup site and hot off the presses Monday.

Hell, even the vast majority of Obama drones that support it don't think it's constitutional. The fact that they support Obamacare even though they believe it violates the Constitution kind of tell ya something about what the left's opinion of the Constitution is, doesn't it?

Some of you dimwits SERIOUSLY need to rethink which side your on!

By the way...just a heads up from the STUPID guy. There are only 2 m's in amendments and there are 2 l's in poll.

Might I suggest you may benefit for a little LESS time spent on political forums...UNLESS you are on George Soros's troll payroll. In that case, I'd suggest a NEW LINE OF WORK!

Actually, Obama won NC, VA, and FL last time. He'll probalby add Missouri to that next time. Maybe Georgia if Romney is having a really bad day.

Guy, you Teabaggers got played by the Koch Brothers like a Stradivarious....

They don't care about your issues. They just want the GOP back in charge so Wall Street can start stealing from you again.

First, Florida is NOT a southern state. It's IN the south, but it has long since been filled plum up with Yankees!

Then there is Virginia....that's the same Virginia that has a HUGE commuter population of people who live there and commute to work in Washington DC every day.

And North Carolina's population has become so urban AND transient that it's just like Virginia. There is no telling WHO they will vote for in national elections. It's USUALLY the front runner in all 3 of those states.

All that aside, that was against McCain and before 36 straight months of over 8% unemployment...actual number is over 16%, Obamacare, 16 TRILLION dollars in debt, 3 years without a budget, Obama's assault on the 1st amendment, 5 dollar a gallon gas and no pipe line and on and on and on.

Not to mention, the TEA Party had just gotten started then. Those thousands of small living room groups from all over the country...have had time to begin organizing!

Yep, libs should just keep whistling past the graveyard!

Oh, and LMFAOff!!!!!!!!!

Someone who's point of view is bought and paid for by George Soros and Arianna Huffington accusing TEA Party groups made up of private citizens organizing in living rooms all across this country of being directed by billionaires is about as ridiculous as it gets!

Let's just make this plain enough that even a wingnut can understand it. The Koch Brothers are worth THREE TIMES what George Soros is. It don't brain surgeon to figure out that if Soros can do all the damn damage to this county he has with his billions...if the Koch Brothers wanted to fund a full on movement to do ANYthing...they DAMN sure wouldn't be funding a bunch of soccer moms around the kitchen counter as their army to take back America!

So unless you are just completely devoid of common sense, you MIGHT want to just shut that noise down!

 

[JoeB131]

Do you mean Michigan or Missouri? YOu really need to learn your state Abbreviations.

(Then again, you seem to think the Zionist entity is a "State".)

But here's what Michigan polls say about the Presdiential race.

RCP Average 1/21 - 2/20 -- 51.0 37.0 Obama +14.0
NBC News/Marist 2/19 - 2/20 1546 RV 51 33 Obama +18
PPP (D) 2/10 - 2/12 560 RV 54 38 Obama +16
EPIC-MRA 1/21 - 1/25 600 LV 48 40 Obama +8

Nope. Obama's going to take that one pretty easily.


Now for Missouri -

RealClearPolitics - Election 2012 - Missouri: Romney vs. Obama

Only PPP has done polling, but Romney has gone from a 6 point lead in November 2010 to a tie now...

Then there is Virginia....that's the same Virginia that has a HUGE commuter population of people who live there and commute to work in Washington DC every day.

If your argument is that Southern States aren't southern when people with education and sophistication move there, I guess we can look forward to teh day when there are no Southern States... Oh, happy day.

But to the point on VA- Clinton didn't win this state and neither did Gore or Kerry, but Obama did. And Mormon Boy is going to have a hard sell with all those Evangelicals he needs to show up to vote for him. if the GOP felt so strong about Romney, they wouldn't have cheated to keep all the other GOP candidates off the ballot. Obama leads Romney in three out of five polls right now in VA.

And North Carolina's population has become so urban AND transient that it's just like Virginia. There is no telling WHO they will vote for in national elections. It's USUALLY the front runner in all 3 of those states.

again, Obama was the first Dem to win it in a long time. But to the point, Romney HAS to win all three. Obama could lose all three and still win by winning all the states Kerry/Gore won plus Ohio and a couple others.

All that aside, that was against McCain and before 36 straight months of over 8% unemployment...actual number is over 16%, Obamacare, 16 TRILLION dollars in debt, 3 years without a budget, Obama's assault on the 1st amendment, 5 dollar a gallon gas and no pipe line and on and on and on.

All shit you care about and mostly, no one else does. McCain is ten times the man Romney is. I voted for McCain. I won't vote for the Mormon POS, ever.

Not to mention, the TEA Party had just gotten started then. Those thousands of small living room groups from all over the country...have had time to begin organizing!

Guy, the TEA Party is over, and the GOP Establishment is sandbagging as many of them as they can. I live in a district represented by a TEA Party type, and the State GOP desperately tried to find someone to run against him. They know they are going to lose this district to the Democrats. Romney will take down the GOP house with him.

Someone who's point of view is bought and paid for by George Soros and Arianna Huffington accusing TEA Party groups made up of private citizens organizing in living rooms all across this country of being directed by billionaires is about as ridiculous as it gets!

Let's just make this plain enough that even a wingnut can understand it. The Koch Brothers are worth THREE TIMES what George Soros is.

Please. You got punked. the TEA Party has failed. They huffed and puffed and the GOP went back to business as usual. Romney will get the nomination DESPITE the TEA Party, and you will all get behind him because you hate Obama so much.

So unless you are just completely devoid of common sense, you MIGHT want to just shut that noise down!

I go with numbers, facts and figures. I think Obama has been a horrible president, but the GOP isn't offering better solutions. We are in an economic crisis, and they want to talk about birth control. Because they don't have any answers.

"Dooooy, Tax Cut for Rich People"..

Well, you can "organize" all day.

Fact is, we rarely throw out incumbants if their party hasn't already held the White House for a while. Most people know that Obama inherited a mess.

To put it another way- 69 million people voted for Obama last time. I haven't heard one of them say, "Man, I can't wait to go out and vote for Romney". I know a few McCain voters who will not vote for Romney under any circumstances. I know I won't.

 

[NYcarbineer]

I like Rubio. But, he should not be allowed to be VP.
Allen West should be considered if the Reps was a minority player on the ticket.

One way or the other who ever, Obama and the Dems and Rep Rinos must be ousted from politics for ever.
Its time the liberal agenda dies for good. Its not rocket science. Look at us now, a failing country and society.

again, if Romney is hoping is Veep Pick is going to be decisive, he's already lost.

Can you please name ONE president who won because he picked the right runningmate?

The best you can hope for is "not disasterous".

I can name one who lost because he picked the wrong one. Gore picking Lieberman in 2000.

Had he picked Bob Graham of Florida he'd have won that state outright and thus won the election.

Maybe.

I don't think Leiberman hurt Gore in Florida. I think the guy who killed him in Florida was Bill Clinton sending Elian Gonzalez back, which drove the Cuban community into Bush's hands.

It don't brain surgeon ??? This is the way a spelling cop talks?

I don't read Huffington or subscribe to Soros.

Apparently the thread I placed the above reply in has been merged.. nice job mods Great Merge!!! Idiots..

Now back to Brainless.... You did not address my contention that only a tiny fraction of Americans have read the Constitution or the Affordable Health Care Act SOOOOooo...any poll on what most Americans believe is unconstitutional about it is worthless other than to show how brainwashed many Americans are.

Many Americans "believe" a lot of things without any proof...such as the sky fairy.

 

[JDzBrain]

All shit you care about and mostly, no one else does. McCain is ten times the man Romney is. I voted for McCain. I won't vote for the Mormon POS, ever.

Dude...since you love the polls...you need to check a few. Those issues TOP THE CHARTS in all polling.

That aside, how in the HELL do you expect me or anyone with a conscience to take ANYTHING you say seriously when you make such a BIGOTED STATEMENT!

Your post proves that you are NOT a republican...you are NOT a conservative and you only prove that knowledge without wisdom is useless and self destructive!

That attitude is antithetical to the Constitution, conservative values and everything you CLAIM to believe!

Article VI - Debts, Supremacy, Oaths--Clause 3---"The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."

Conservatives BELIEVE THOSE WORDS!

By the way...YOU are the one whose been made a fool of. The PRESS is the one making all the noise about birth control. It only came up with the candidates because Rick Santorum ANSWERED A QUESTION from a reporter about it nearly a month ago when HE was talking about Obama's using HHS to attack the 1st Amendment!

So getting your facts straight FIRST might be a good place to start. Then maybe a little introspection about what constitutes bigotry!

Does that make ya fell better about my country-isms?

Oh, and I wouldn't be blaming the Mods for your inability to keep which window you have open straight. THAT is a good way to get yourself classified as a TROLL!!!

Now, back to your COMPLETE lack of reading comprehension skills. YES...I DID address it. People do NOT have to read it to know that the individual mandate is unconstitutional. It is OFFENSIVE to even the most stanch democrats.

Did you not read the question that was asked in that poll? It was at the top.

I don't know what school system YOU are a product of, but we started learning the so called Bill of Rights (the first 10 amendments) in grade school. And the US Constitution was part of our high school American History classes.

Now I doubt most of us understood it at the time, but I will PROMISE you that the mere IDEA of the federal government FORCING Americans to purchase ANYthing is so offensive to the principles we DID understand that nearly EVERYONE can understand that!

Apparently, given your response, understanding the Constitution is beyond many adults abilities as well. IF you are an adult!?

Your hysteria is noted. Americans DO pay for a lot of things by threat of force as taxes that if you do not pay may cause seisure of property. In most states...if not all by now one must have auto insurance...even if they may drive without ever causing an accident. Unlike the exceedingly great drivers that will never draw a dime from the auto insurance pool EVERYONE eventually will need to make use of the healthcare system....just as people that walk or ride bicyles or take public transportation eventually use roads or services that require roads.

I'll give you that in many localities "The US Constitution" is on the curriculum but I doubt even fresh out of HS few could recite it. Opinion? Ya sure but looking at replies such as yours underlines my belief. I guess my most potent evidence that The Constitution is subject to "interpretation" let alone ignorance is the existance of the third branch of government...The Supreme Court.

 

[JDzBrain]

...In most states...if not all by now one must have auto insurance...even if they may drive without ever causing an accident....

Just a note. It's actually my way of paying homage to a guy who had an old school cooking show called "The Cajun Chef." His favorite saying was, "Ah.....Don't that beautiful?"

Now, back to the fun.

Uh, that's apples and oranges Huggy. That is a state mandate...NOT a federal mandate. The Constitution says SPECIFICALLY in the 10th Amendment that "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." Which means that states can do it.

And that is right AFTER the 9th Amendment which says, "The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."

That in plain language is saying that the powers enumerated in the Constitution for the 3 branches of government can NOT be used to deny or disparage...USURP all other rights that are retained by us. Those rights are EVERYTHING that is not specifically enumerated in the constitution as a power of a branch of government.

The mandating of the purchase IS constitutional IF the people of the state accept it AND it doesn't violate either the State's or the US constitutions.

There is NOTHING in the US Constitution that authorizes the Congress, President OR the Supreme Court to FORCE citizens to purchase anything.

There IS however plenty the restricts them from doing so since the powers they have are plainly laid out.

The Supreme Court's ONLY job is to make sure that all courts below it don't violate the constitution AS WRITTEN when deciding cases and resolve cases between states and ministries.

NOT interpret the Constitution!

As a matter of fact, the founders viewed the SC as the least powerful and subordinate to the other 2 branches.

Have a go at the Federalist Papers if you want to know what the founders vision for our federal government and it's authority was.

It was NOT to force people to buy a product against their will OR tax payers to fund that purchase!
