remains of 2012: Barrett

Sorry, that I couldn't read the front content here.

Take notes of Ames

They served as yesterday's brief strike and machinations in the room where he made goods tender roots in the survey of Ames, Kasie Hunt of political reports a little more on volunteer of Newt Gingrich.

The young man, dressed in a bow tie, was a College Group Republicans and never made an offer in a slot, the same sources.

Continue reading when asked about his presence, he said, according to the source of Kasie, "we have no money." "I am here only to take notes."

It is unclear whether "money" means that it bids, or what. A spokesman for Gingrich has not responded to an email.

Both for the history of bad luck?

Mitt Romney's campaign is having to answer questions about a web video that apparently isn't quite what it seems, via Jonathan Weisman:

As misery goes, Ryan King appears to be pretty deep in it in the new Mitt Romney video that slams President Barack Obama’s economic stewardship through the story of a struggling, seemingly unemployed college graduate.
“Frustration is the big word,” Ryan says as somber music plays and hard-scrabble images roll by of Midland, Mich. “Anything that I’m qualified for, you know, that people are looking for, they also want experience. And I mean because of the economy and the way it is, there are so many people that are looking for jobs, at the same time my hands are tied, how can I get experience if no one is going to hire me in?”
“Am I struggling right now? Absolutely,” he says.
But in struggling Michigan, where unemployment is 10.3%, Mr. King’s story doesn’t appear to be the worst.
According to his Facebook and MySpace pages, he graduated just last month from Northwood University in Midland, where he studied accounting, was a residential adviser and mail clerk. On May 6, just as he was graduating, he announced that he “got the job, booya!!!” at Quality Marketing Enterprise, a Midland company.
On June 10, he cut the Romney video, telling his Facebook friends, “Last night went great and I hope that I make the final cut. It would be refreshing to be part of something nationwide. Off to work for the day.”

“Haha I was trying to make it in the video, I was dancing in the Honda Pilot in the drive thru lol. We didn’t know it was you until we drove away,” a friend said, commenting on the video-making outside a Starbucks in Midland.

Romney spokeswoman Andrea Saul, asked for comment, said, "He's struggling right now, just like millions and millions of other Americans. The only person who apparently thinks the economy is doing well is President Obama, and no one but him believes that to be the case."

This is Romney in a nutshell. There is nothing authentic about his positions. Once you penetrate the surface of his facade, you find that he's not what he's projecting to the public. This story is perfectly Romneyesque. He could have found a real unemployed student, but that would have been real. With Romney, facts don't matter, you can shape those to fit whatever.

Who would be President if he were elected? The guy who supports a health care mandate or the one who opposes it? The guy who supports a woman's right to choose, or the one who opposes it?

Will the real Mitt Romeny please stand up?

The guy does NOT say he is unemployed, but that he is ...Struggling paycheck to paycheck in this economy.

Maggie never tells the entire story....especially in the headlines to grab your attention.

So what questions does Romney have to answer?

This is a campaign so we better get used to it for the next 17 months.

Demand that campaigns last for 6 months....Period.

Michele Bachmann's sterling social conservative credentials are a big reason for her national following and her expected appeal in Iowa. And she's already starting to wield them as a club against one of her opponents, the Huffington Post reports:

Speaking via Skype to the National Right to Life’s Convention in Jacksonville, Fla., the Minnesota Republican did not mention former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney by name. But the target of her dig was clear.

The 2012 race, she said, was "not the time for Republicans to put up a candidate who is weak on this issue and has a history of flip-flopping on this issue.”

Romney is hoping that his mixed history on abortion will be less of an issue in an economy-driven 2012 campaign. But Bachmann has the opportunity at least to make life uncomfortable for the frontrunner on this issue, which is still a dealbreaker for many on the right and has the potential to reinforce doubts about Romney's ideological core.

Why not? Romney's banking his whole campaign on the economy and his supposedly superior skills in this area. But when you listen to all of the Republican candidates they all have the same remedy for the economy. Lower taxes and deregulate. He has no ideas that are different than any other candidate.

So how does he really set himself apart from Bachmann, or Pawlenty, or any of the others? Only in that Republicans can't trust him on the social issues. If they nominate him, they are truly suckers. They coulda had a V8. Why drink Romney's koolaid?

...but Bachmann must know what is the Question = It's Jobs Lady, Jobs....

IF Romney had not "Wrecked the companies (sell them off, down to zero, unfriendly forced 'takeovers,' outsourcing to China,etc) THEN maybe I would think of him as "A Business-Policy Mind" with a "stelar record" ... but ... I would always wonder what happened to all those people he hurt while gaining personal wealth ....

You can Love the sinner & Hate The Sin... You can "Be For Free-will /Right To Choose" & Hate Abortions but Never Can You Abide "The Greed Of Gain On The Pain Of Others"

Bachmann needs to "Hit" Romney's Business Record ....

A reader reminded us that Mitt Romney, whose new hard-luck web ad about unemployment in Michigan features someone who may not be suffering as much as others, isn't the first time the candidate's drawn from the College Republican well for his videos.

From the indefatigable Jon Ralston last week, Romney's team apparently made a similar move in Nevada.

The ad is about a guy who is struggling from paycheck to paycheck just like a whole lot of people.

How much "suffering" do you want him to show Maggie?

Maybe he should show him in a skid row kind of ad......Will Obama, or will Obama try to tell people how many jobs HE himself personally saved.

Maybe an ad hat trick showing where all that shovel ready money ($800 Billion) disappeared.

Only stupid people can believe what GOP's lies. I know who caused this recession and has allies in the Congress to block everything they supported inorder to be in power. They lie and power grab. GOP can never be trusted on anything. They lied about wars and now lying about economy. Name one job plan has your Taliban in Congress passed. All what I know is Defund! Defund! and Cut! Cut! like Britain. The reason behind is to slow down our economy for political gains. Not this time, wake up America.

You really need to read and watch a few OTHER things other than the leftist blogs.

If you want to know a few things about what brought down the economy try investigating Barney Frank/Chris Dodd and how they brought down the economy using Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Then you can go on to google Andrew Cuomo's roll in HUD along with Chuck Schumer and IndyMac.

Start there.
