they need to convince everyone so that when they do their voting machine and other manipulations, they can say I told you so. The fix is beginning to ramp up. You will hear it echoed in steroids until the campaign is over.

(505 posts)... And the LOW turnout in the primaries, there's no way that any of those non-candidates should be higher than 20-30% against the Prez.
Some say they started tipping scale to Romney during the primaries.
There's no way it should be neck and neck. And, it wouldn't if we had real journalists and editors doing their 4th estate jobs. The news should be filled with stories about:
--TAX RETURNS, TAX RETURNS, TAX RETURNS
--Voting in MA election using son's address after he sold his house. (Voter fraud)
--retirement date-gate
--how he's allowed to "lie for god" to get elected - see pro-choice stand in Massachusetts. A women says he told her that he "got permission" from church to appear to support women's choice
--how crony Olympic contracts continued under him (not ended)
--BS that church missionary work equates to a military mission. (some opposed war and didn't go but they didn't publicly support the war and then run when their number was called)
--More stories on Bain's outsourcing and destroying companies
--More stories on Mormanism. Let's explore the practice of old guys having one official marriage and also several unofficial marriages - often to significantly young women and how the welfare checks POUR IN for these "extended families" because it's one married couple living with several single moms with LOTS of kids. There are entire sections of towns like this.
-- All the BS spouted at debates - journalists should spend a significant amount of time giving the public the real info. He wasn't stating opinions. He was flat out lying
--what else? I know there's more.
--oh, evolution! That should be a mental litmus test for any voter. That disqualified ALL the Rs on primary debate stage. Including Mr. Etch-a-sketch.
Ok your turn. What else should we see more about? The Rs clearly call into C-span to insert bogus talking points. Perhaps we should call in with real issues. . .
There's no way he should poll higher than 40% against PBO!
Lastly, I am sick to death of hearing from ANYONE in news shows who are paid to give their side of the issue. ie lobbying and partisan think tank people. I want people with real info in the subject and are paid to steak the truth based on facts.
