Romney jerks like a windshield wiper. A capital liar on economy, education, jobs, health, immigration, defense, trashing Obama or anything. Unfit for the WH. Don't let him sell you a used car.

An insult to voters intelligence. His math sucks. “Privatize” Soc Security, “voucherize” Medicare sending seniors to foot their health bill, cut down entitlements and all govt expense to the bone (what Obama offered in 2010). And use all the proceeds to pay off the Debt and reduce the Deficits? Hell no! To lower the rich tax and raise the defense budget! Only fools believe they’ll create jobs and restore the economy.

I noticed the poll data is still skewed in favor of democrats. ABC slanted the polls by using the 2008 polls as kind of a model, but actually lowered the republican turnout for this election lowered than the 2008 election. Gotta give them credit for the assist in making these polls look over the top rosy! If they are just going to make it up, why not go full tilt and claim Obama winning by 137 points? Over sample democrats, illegals, cans of Spam... and throw a few token republicans and independents (which the socialist democrats call closet neo-con tea party republicans). Unskewed poll averages for last week indicate Romney over Obama by Romney +7.4, which makes far more sense anyway. It takes a lot of effort to put Obama on top and make it seem plausible. Huh.
