   Chip, this goes back to the primaries. No one wanted Mitt then and they don’t want him now. They tolerate him- which is not the same thing

   Because the party of Mitt is the main contributor to being broke. No repeats of W and far right tax breaks for rich needed.

   Yes, when the bail out was borrowing from the Chinese to give me a $600 check instead of paying down the debt, no tea partier complained. Fiscal responibility waould have been so much easier when the economy was in good shape (i.e. when Bush got into office). Now the REP’s should just shut-up if they are so unwilling to help fix thing again.

   Lockheed is now looking at getting $1.3 TRILLION for the F-35 that still doesn’t work. bin Laden shows Obama attends enough security briefings, and listens; unlike “W” (and his entire staff) prior to 9/11. Addressing the public on a public forum, and presenting intelligent facts, like on Letterman, or yes, “The View”, is a much more rational effort than “debates” out to show the “prima donna effect”.

   Because its harder to sell long term health over instant gratification goodies to a large portion of our country.

   Mitt says, “But I invented Obamacare.”

   Just talked to an old friend who returned from service in Afghanistan. He’s been Republican since I’ve known him but is voting for O this time around. Why? The alternative is just awful.

   “Lockheed is now looking at getting $1.3 TRILLION for the F-35 that still doesn’t work.”
   Aahh, but this provides jobs. And it is the only thing we can still make. Killing machines. If the work or not. Paid for by the taxpayers, some of which get paid for doing it, and pay taxes. All a nice merry go round, but somewhere there is a hole in this equation. It drains the pond.

    because people are stupid they believe all the liberal crap they hear on the talk show. They see a picture of a homeless person an say we have to help them. Not bothering to check why they are there. Is it because of the clinton bill that says we have to make it easier for people to own a home.

    People are criticizing $1.3 trillion going to Lockheed – yet they fail to realize that it is Obama in office (not Romney) doing it. They criticize the country going broke, but it is much more broke since Obama took over. Nobody ever asked me if we should get $600. That was Obama. I would have been satisfied with not getting any of it – but what is fair is fair – I won’t give it back unless everybody else is.
    You all write things that make me wonder what country you live in. Hello. It is Obama that has been running the country into bankruptcy over the past four years. Regardless of what Bush did before that, Obama hasn’t fixed the problem. Now it is time to give somebody else a chance – somebody with business experience at turning businesses around. And, if you like the direction that the country is heading right now, I encourage you to move to Greece. That disaster is where we are heading with Obama leading the way.

    Have you been watching the news? Every time the Dems want to fix anything, the Repubs say no.

    one day, i might learn to do links.

    I WISH Leher had had that much presence on the stage. Give man an OFF switch for God’s sake. When you ask a question and the speaker ignores the question in order to pursue their own agenda, PUSH THE BUTTON!

    Mitt won the 1st debate hands down, anyone with any brain matter who watched the debate could clearly tell Obama did not want to be there on his 20th Anniversary. This date was set months ago, guess Obama was unable to operate an iPhone to check his Calendar, for if he had, he could have requested another day in the first week of October other than October 3, 2012 as he was going to celebrate his 20th Wedding Anniversary with his dear Wife, Michelle
