Speaking of polls, see this testimony?

Propaganda.  Shocking, I know.

Obama popped in his campaign's field office in Henderson, Nev., to give staff there a pep talk and phone a few volunteers, including Andrea Stinger. Pool reporter Carol Lee of the Wall Street Journal collected his comments.
 
"We had a great prep, and it was a lot of fun," he told Stinger. "It's very nice. Although basically they're keeping me indoors all the time. It's a drag. They're making me do my homework."

one of Obama's key goals was battling his tendency to be long-winded.
 
The president is trying to "make sure he is sharpening his answers and shortening the time it takes to make them."




says nothing about his tendency to lie.....

A message from Barry:

"Vote like your lady parts depend on it," the text in the image says. Underneath, the text reads: "Because they kinda do."

UPDATE: The image has been removed from the Obama website.

Heh, heard that on Rush today, no doubt yanked as soon as they knew he called it out.

Losers.

I don't think I can watch these worthless debates.  Like LV's post and other stuff I've heard the entire Democrat-Media Complex is reading the same script saying Obama is the underdog and so disadvantaged that he merely has to show up and be seen standing up to Mitt and its a win for him.  It'll be the usual ambush questions for Mitt and asshats stacked in the audience cheering lustily everything O and booing everything Mitt and if Mitt looks at his watch, scratches or drinks water he'll be labeled as being rattled by Obama, out of touch, blah effing blah, yadda frickin yadda...the MFM boilerplate declaring a stunning Obama win and feigning mock surprise over how bad Mitt was is already written.

What crap!  This is what happens when you cave to their rules, their format and their asshat moderators time and again...

We will never see a brave soul step forward and say "screw your BS!"...

The headline at Drudge right now is...provocative. Seriously, I'm provoked.

Quote
DAILY CALLER PLANS EXCLUSIVE RELEASE OF 'UNSCRUBBED' OBAMA VIDEO... DEVELOPING...

OBAMA DECLARES HOW POOR PEOPLE: 'Need help with basic skills, how to shop, how to show up for work on time, how to wear the right clothes, how to act appropriately in an office'... Developing...

DAILY CALLER: 'For nearly 40 minutes, using an accent he never adopts in public, Obama describes a racist, zero-sum society, in which the white majority profits by exploiting black America'... Developing tonight...

Just in time for the first debate. I'm ready to be interested. I'm ready to be intrigued.

Still don't want to tune in to the debates? Could be good. You never know.

EDIT: The DC is going to be putting this thing up online at 7 PM ET

SECOND EDIT: And it's going to air on Hannity.

I'm hoping that it is not unlike a multiple car pileup on the freeway with dismemberment.

Stomach churning but impossible to look away.

But it probably won't be as earth shaking as it is being made out to be.

Okay, so it was what I suspected: Good but not great. More grist for the BO mill.

So...change topic. Here is someone else mostly parroting what I have been saying:

Quote
At a dinner party in London Saturday, I was asked to say a few words about the upcoming presidential election in the United States. All of the guests were what my friend Otto Penzler calls “politically mature,” i.e., they regarded Barack Obama with varying degrees of fear, loathing, and distaste. But they had also, most of them, imbibed deeply of The Narrative: the fairy tale dispensed by virtually all the legacy (formerly known as “the mainstream”) media that Obama was as sure a thing to win as was possible to discover in this mutable sublunary world.

There was some surprise (not to say incredulity), then, when I repeated my frequent refrain (like a broken record) that I thought Mitt Romney would not only win but win big. I was not surprised by the wonder with which my prediction was greeted. The Narrative, nearly seamless in the United States, is positively monolithic in the UK. And there is this difference: in the U.S., the idea that Barack Obama has the election sewn up, while assiduously disseminated by the media, is at least treated to some of the skepticism it deserves by a large and vibrant dissenting commentariat, to whose mast your humble correspondent proudly nails his colors. That is one reason that, although you’ll rarely hear a peep of dissent on the “major” networks or politically correct organs like The New York Times, there is nevertheless a strong and indeed growing current of contrary sentiment, broadcast by venues like PJ Media but underwritten by a vast electorate that is seething with discontent over the top-down, socialist, spread-the-wealth-around policies of our handsome but shockingly incompetent president.

Oh, and Talking Points Memo predictably spins the Narrative that the unedited BO speech is old news. I find it funny that they headline their rebuttal with a picture of BO with his nose in the air.

And just in case you were looking for some fantasy to go with your otherwise boring evening here is David Gergen proving that yes, it is possible to do word processing while seriously hopped up on hallucinogenics. Gergen is suggesting that BO can put the race away tomorrow night at the Denver debate with some kind of a "knock out punch" or something...

Quote
Contrary to much conventional wisdom, Obama may actually be able to bust open this race, sweeping almost every state he won four years ago and rolling up a victory margin of perhaps five points or more.

It must be nice to live in some kind of a weird alternate universe where things are pretty much whatever you imagine them to be. In Gergen's strange and twisted world BO is the greatest president ever, the world is - due to BO's brilliance - at peace and the economy has apparently roared back to heights never seen before.

Or...it could be that CNN requires him to write these columns on a regular basis or forfeit his paycheck so Gergen just makes sh*t up. That seems to be the more logical explanation but he could easily be demented, as well.

Hey, here's a quick question for the forum members: How many BO bumpers stickers and signs do you see? Rush was sort of talking about that today but he was quick to mention that Romney signs aren't highly visible either. Other than the old Obama/Biden 2008 stickers I occasionally see on beat up Volvos I haven't seen any new ones at all. Not a single yard sign, either. I have seen a few Romney signs and stickers but zero (and I do mean zero) BO 2012 signs/stickers. Anyone else?

I have seen a few Obama 2012 stickers on cars, but haven't seen any yard signs. I haven't really seen many yard signs for Romney either. But there is definitely none of the exuberance for Duh Won like there was in 2008. It is simply not there.

I think there is something significant to the fact that there are so few obvious signs of support for either candidate. I think a substantial portion of the population have realized there's nothing about politics that can actually fix any of the looming problems, and in fact most of those problems were created by politics in the first place. I'm not even sure cynicism is quite the right word for it, nor is helplessness. It's an almost indifferent resignation to the fact that it's all just so much kabuki theater and biding of time, awaiting the big something.

When it's so glaringly clear that the pollsters and news outlets are in the tank for Obama why shouldn't it be equally and logically clear that Romney is going to win ?   ::oldman:: ::thinking:: ::oldman::

No my friend. Because logic, reason, and rational thought have very little bearing on our elections. The "logic" is that Øbozo must win because they are so heavily invested in Øbozo. The ironic thing is that they cling to their Øbamessiah for fear of losing face. The irony is that these cretins are relatively shameless in every other respect.

I have seen a few (3-6) obama/biden 2012 bumper stickers here in So. Cal.  No yard signs though, also nothing Romney.

I saw a Romney yard sign on my street, and a Romney bumpersticker yesterday.  I haven't been checking, but I will going forward.

I definitely see more Romney yard Signs in and around where I live in Denver - though not many.  A lot of signs for other positions where a Republican is running, but they DIDN'T post a Romney sign.  Only saw one Obama yard sign - of course next to a new home we were looking at ( NIX on that one. I may not be able to get far from them, but I am not going to live next door to a libtard so stupid as to post a Obama sign in his year this year. That is a true believer and someone I would have to shoot come Teotwawki. )

Not a lot of bumper stickers either way,  even when driving through the People's Republic  of Boulder. (and that is weird- in there I was still seeing Kerry stickers up to 2006)

But hey, anyone notice anything wrong with this picture?


Not a photoshop. I took this one myself.
