yOU ARE VERYYYYYY WRONG! Romney is like the weather, changes every day. He does not believe what he said. Untruthful, wrong for the middle class and poor, ONLY for the rich like him. "47 % of americans ......" remember.

Obama's policies have not worked at all in the four years he's been President despite what he inherited what he took office back on 1/1/08. We are all suffering because of it. Rommney seems to understand the economics of business which is needed to turn our country around and create lots of good jobs. Obama hasn't done enought to allow America to be oil independent. Romnney will do more do create a lot of jobs in the oil/gas sector which will produce more gas and thereby reduce gas prices for all of us. Obama is for more goverment regulatons, more taxes on us and more spending to feed the bloated social government programs which some need to be cut. All of us don't know about what Obamacare is about or the full ramification of it if it goes inot effect. Obama jammed this one down teh American people's throats. This is major for the future of healthcare and yet there will be those people that are ignorant on "Obamacare" that will still vote for Obama (how stupid some peoole are on this nation that will vote for a man that created and wants Obamacare without knowing anything about it).

What did Obama do? All I remember him doing was go on vacations and spend our tax money. Obama wants to be an actor, he only became president to become famous. He has been on more tv shows then he is in the oval office.

I agree with you Jenny. Obama cares for ALL people unlike Romney (only the rich).

All he cares about is making his money, he does not care about no one. He has no business structure. What we need is someone in the business field to become President. That's what America is, a business. Romney is a business man and I know he will be the one to fix this country. I think Donald Trump would have done a little better job if he ran but Romney will do. Look at the past, The Republicans are the one's who wanted change and to move forward. We were the ones who made this country the way it is. Once Bill Clinton came in he really messed up the economy. It was not bush or Obama it was Clinton, but Obama did not make it better he just made it worse. Lets take a turn and let Romney get elected and do it work to get this country back on track. For Romney to fix this country he would have to be President for at least two terms to fix Obama's and Clinton's mess.

I'm Not rich but Romney is right - if you listen to what he said about the 47% - they are the ones that would not vote for him because they want something for nothing - Like Obama keeps promising to those people - 4 years of tring to turn this country into a country wanting instead of doing hopefully is over.

If there was any doubt that the mainstream media is an absolute joke, Candy Crowley should have ended it. She may as well have worn an Obama t-shirt. And you know what? I'm glad Romney made the 47% comment - it is the God's honest truth. And he was not talking about seniors or our military who actually paid into the system, he was talking about the leeches who have a dozen or more kids out of wedlock with absentee fathers, abuse drugs, drop out of school and have no interest in working or pulling their own weight in this life. They choose to be poor, and demand that we pay for them. You know what? Those of us who work, pay taxes and support these slugs are sick of it and I know a lot of people who were energized by someone who finally had the guts to call these moochers out.

They choose to be poor? lol. that's funny. I'm a moocher but is exxon getting 4 billion making record profits at the same time a moocher? It's obvious you know nothing of God's honest truth. This battle over judging each others worth has been going on ever since we were tricked into to thinking we can take as much for ourselves as we can or want and our societies will just be fine. The problem isn't the judging it's the fact that the judged don't get to judge up till it takes war to even the scales. Once you and society judges a person worthless, they begin to believe it and act the part. Just as rich believe because they are rich they are worth so much more to society then the rest. It's a vicious cycle that break society down. So let's open the good books and the accounting books and have another look at who's worth what. Oh no, we don't wanna judge the rich that make the poor by judging them now do we? Why not? Because you might not be worth what you take in the eyes of your fellow citizen? Let's take cameras into the board rooms and see what the ceo's do for a living. Let's see all the tough calls and great minds they have. Hard work will set you free? Your works will not get you in my friend. I know, you worked so hard in school and conquering the dumber around you. But you have fooled yourselves into thinking you haven't been conquered as one of the dumb. p.s. I wish those speaking of the rose garden comments would quote them before they comment on them.

To answer your question George, no Exxon is not a moocher. They are a legitimate business who employees hundreds of thousands of people and pays billions in taxes. Incidentally, the government makes more in taxes on a gallon of gas than Exxon makes in profits. No wonder you like Obama - you have the same disdain for companies who create jobs. Now welfare queens who have kids like there's no tomorrow, they are moochers. Remember the welfare queen in Bed-Sty who was killed in a gang shooting last June? She was in her 30s, had 12 kids by nine fathers - none of them paying any support. That pal, was her choice. She chose to do that and now society is burdened with having to raise those kids. So keep living in your liberal fantasyworld, but that human debris is what is killing this country. And by the way, welfare programs are the single biggest items in the federal budget - over one trillion dollars annually. Way to go liberals.

Is the Unted States better NOW than when he took office?
The Democrats controlled the Senate AND House the last tweo years of Bush, so Obama's claim that he "inherited this mess from Bush" just doesn't hold up. "W" certainly didn't help, but BOTH parties were to blame. Now, after almost 4 years of Obama, it's clear that Obama's policies both foreign and domestic are an absolute disaster.
There's another issue that the media doesn't cover... Obama's treasury folks have printed TRILLIONS of dollars of un-bancked paper currency that is WORTHLESS, and the rest of the world knows it. That's why gold prices are breaking records and will continue to do so... and when the US Dollar is no longer the world's fiat currency, this country is in for a HUGE economic disaster. Inflation is already out of control... look at your grocery and utility bills the last 4 years.... wait... if Obama stays in office and continues this monetary policy, it will be like Carter all over again...

if Obama wins we can dig our own graves.. even my family who was pro obama has changed there votes. obama is throwing lies out, look the stuff up. he takes a few words out of a story and turns it into something it isn't or wasn't. i still have not heard what obama done for this country in 4 years... bin laden would have been caught no matter who was president. gas prices have been up and down and still high either way and yet obama claimed it was down.. he wont admit to our problems... im no Republican and im no democrat im just me and i have to vote for the greater of the two and i would rather a man who knows how to profit then a man who cries its every one else' s fault.. simply my thoughts

Right on Jeanine. We need a guy who, not only knows how business works and how to create jobs, but will not spend half his time going around the world apologizing for America's greatness.

Vampires, mummies the Tea Party, and the Holy Ghost, these are the things that frighten me the most! Today’s Republican Party is not the same republican party of Ronald Regan or even George Bush! In the contrary today’s Republican Party has been (for lack of a better word) highjacked by an extreme right wing radical element we refer to as the “Tea Party.” If Mitt Romney is elected these people will alter your life in a way you never thought imaginable. For example they want to replace Medicare with a voucher system, privatize Social Security, repeal National Health Insurance and eliminate your home property tax deduction while giving the wealthy 5% more tax cuts. The choice is yours on Election Day, Vote reason NOT color.

Gee Thomas A. Blasi...I am a Republican. Can you explain why I am "extreme" when I:

* Served in the armed forces for many years;
* Earned college degrees and technical certifications in my profession;
* Work hard and pay may taxes on time;
* Consistently, and legally vote;
* Protect, defend, and obey the Constitution of the United States;
* Help others in my community through service and charity giving;
* Teach my kids the importance of good citizenship;

...let me know, OK?

Not all republicans are extreme (Members of the Tea Party) some are moderate, you're probably one.

Please, Thomas A. Blasi, explain what makes a Tea Party member "extreme". We need documented, proof -- as in court records; official police reports; etc.,

The ones that I have met are pretty much an echo to my views:

* Overhaul welfare (for corporations and citizens)
* Obey the Constitution (government and citizens alike)
* Audit the Federal Reserve and restore Congress' authority over our money supply
* Enforce immigration laws
* Create incentives to keep American jobs in the United States
* Use America's natural resources to lower energy costs
