I've come to the conclusion that the strongest campaign tactic, the BEST thing Obama can do to get himself re-elected, is to just keep Rmoney talking. Hire private reporters to follow him around asking him questions all day long. Because not only is Rmoney SO narcissistic that he can't resist talking at anyone nearby, he also doesn't realize that the more he talks, the deeper he digs the hole.
I really can't remember the last time I've seen a campaign so hapless with a candidate so blissfully unaware of how stupid and inept he is. He's like Sarah Palin's idiot brother WITHOUT the skillful handlers there to bail her out.
I've been mercilessly hammering Rmoney on my Facebook page every time he says or does something stupid (which is often). I only do it because there are so many right-wing A-holes I know who post every inane, bullshit, right-wing talking point they can turn into a "witty" bumper-sticker-style photo and/or slogan (kinda like the fundie wacko who recently posted oh-so-proudly that she would be attending Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day and encouraged all "patriotic Americans" to do the same). But what I've been noticing lately is that of all the right-wing people who view my Facebook page, even the ones who always feel the need to try to refute my posts, have basically given up. Nary a peep from any of them. I suspect it's because even THEY know that Rmoney is not a candidate worth getting all hot and bothered over, or even putting up a fight for.
So again I say, the more Rmoney talks between now and November, the worse it's going to get for him, and we're already talking blowout, in my opinion. If it weren't an absolute FACT that most of the Southern States (and a few others--Utah, I'm looking at you) would vote for Osama Bin Laden's corpse if it were run as the Republican Nominee, then I think Obama would have a very real chance of beating Reagan's record from 1984, because I'm absolutely CERTAIN that Rmoney won't win his home State (at least Mondale won Minnesota).

(10,021 posts)I don't have to read their bullshit lies about Mr. Obama. They can dish it out but they can't take it. Wanted to add that I posted on FB that my friends needed an "I Hate Obama" button because I know for a fact that they can't stand Rmoney and that's when I lost 2 in 1 day. lol

Rmoney scores some points....unfortunately....we need to keep him stagnant at the level he is now (of worse)

(1,374 posts)Too sneaky and could backfire. Hold the MSM's feet to the fire to get tougher on Romney and he'll crumble. Not sure if they'll cooperate though. I've noticed a lot of covering for Mitt lately.
I do agree that the more people see the real Romney, the less close it will be in Nov. I too predict a landslide.
Just wait until the debates. If the GOP primaries were any indication, everyone will get a good taste of the narcissistic MittWit when he's forced to go head-to-head with Obama. Lies can't save you when someone is refuting them to your face.
