Why is Romney still running?

reply to post by davethebear


What about what Obama has said which is the exact opposite of what he has actually done?
Does anybody over there actually pay attention to those things.
They surely don't here.

"Why is Romney still running?"

Because he's a winna...........Romney wins by a landslide...............muaaaaaaaahhhhhh - and he'll make a great president. And Paul Ryan will straighten out this broken economy while Romney does the rest.

Blah, blah, blah, blah, left/right/ left/right, blah,blah, blah. Mitt Romney made his money by bankrupting the companies Bain closed, leaving the tax payers to foot the bill for each bankruptcy created by thier said takeovers. Suggesting that Romney is a sound business man is the height of hypocrisy. Romney has the audacity to preach to the American people about oversized and growing debt, yet that is how he makes his money, creating debt that is left to the taxpayer to cover while he walks aways with millions after thieving those companies into bankruptcy. At the same time, suggesting Mr Obama will turn things around is just as wildly optimistic. We have no accountability for anything regarding the state of banking or monopolized trading on Wall Street let alone the unchecked agression our country pushes globally under the guise of spreading demockracy as opposed to fulfulling the needs of the military industrial complex for pure profit. The most comical thing to me though is those suggesting that our country will perish under four more years of Obama. Too late, it's already dead! Our "elected offishuls" are corruptly beholden to the soft money on K Street and couldn't care less about your plight as a participant in the illusion that helps you think you are actually a viable part of any constituency. We are suppose to deny ignorance at ATS yet everyday there is another thread, usually responded to by the same trolls desperately trying to convince each other that they know what the hell is going on and that the opposing side does not. It doesn't matter who wins in November as there will sadly be no epiphany coming that will radically change the destructive course of events slowly unfolding before our very eyes. It won't matter either who you have in the White House to blame when the ponzi scheme backing the US dollar goes up in smoke. Whoever takes the blame will have no bearing on your savings, investments, or pensions going up in smoke. You'll still be screwed. Ya'all keep beating that dead horse though if it helps you get through. However, doing the more difficult thing and finding unity through honestly admitting our entire system is screwing the American people collectively would be more constructive. Why is Mitt Romney still running? Because the weak minded people of this nation continue to be supportive of a system that screws us from both sides while cleverly keeping the polarized agenda driven spin alive and well.

There's a debate I hosted about Romney being a good POTUS, it's almost done, but also very informative!

You Romney doubters should read it.

Officially, Romney is running because he has been chosen as the best Republican candidate. He has the support and backing of all those who think Obama needs only one term.

Off topic: The debate forum is accepting new members for debates. CHECK HERE to join. The requirements are 200 posts OR 6 months membership. Get involved, and debate any topic! Debates are the best way to hone your critical thinking skills, and you'll be surprised to find a troll free zone on ATS that allows you to express your opinion on a topic with another member. I encourage everyone reading to at least check it out, and decide if it's for you or not.

Why is Romney still running? Sometimes people who can't stand on their own two feet can still run.

Romney is running because he knows the election will be decided by "Electoral" votes not by a popular vote... Even if it's a tie he still wins because the house would then pick the president and the house is comprised of republicans...

I'm not so sure that Obama is going to win, liberals only think so because they are mostly associating with other liberals these days. This gives the illusion that everyone supports Obama -

This might actually make it easier for Romney to win, since liberals, especially younger ones, might not think it is as important to make it to the polls.

It's so weird to see people ona conspiracy site love the corporatist government so much.

Why in the world would the US need a goldman sachs candidate?

And yes, Obama included.

The problem with polls is I could show you a half a dozen others or more that show Obama now up 5-15 points in some states. With some states that were red now edging toward blue.

Romney just had three major gaffes. 1) His Libya blunder. 2. GOP Infighting. and 3. His Fancy Dinner Secret Tapes. Analysts are saying he will see the repercussions of that over the next week - week and a half or more. GOP confidence isn't rising for him, either. Debates are coming up. If only they could get him not to open his mouth the GOP might stand a chance...

I've seen a lot of forecasts like that one fail.. What about the recent university of Colorado model which has correctly predicted every election since 1980 and has Romney winning in a landslide... Let's just conveniently forget about that one... www.colorado.edu...

Obama was doomed after he told the truth with his teleprompter switched off.

- If you've got a business, you didn't build that.-



New video just out on that famous Obama speech:

I never get people that hate on the current president. Its like they blame everything that happened in the last 10 yrs on a guy who started the job 4 yrs ago.

I love how people mention that 16 trillion deficit. was that 0 when he came to office?

Spending money on war and troops. Was it his fault that the war is going on?


As a non American, non democrat or republican or w/e other party. Obama has made the overall economy better from an outside point of view, you guys are in less mess.

Before you judge and blame a president, look at 5 yrs before and 5 yrs after his term int he office.

From what the Canadian new is telling, it looks like the winner is Obama. News been showing him as a successor since July.

Obama added $5 trillion to the debt in only 4 years.

That is a disgrace.

Now he wants us to go over the Fiscal Cliff.

See, you can go to any source and get a completely different prediction.

Also note "Bickers and Berry cautioned, however, that their model used economic data from June, 2012. They intend to update their calculations when new data become available in September." from your article. Not up to date. The one I posted is updated throughout the day. Obama's now up to 332 electoral votes as of NOW. HERE

He is the only national candidate truthfully qualified to be on the ballot....but we wont rehash the birthplace issue.

Obama insiders secretly making retirement plans for the Obamas with the expectation the president will lose his bid for re-election in November.

Very quietly, Obama’s chief financier, Penny Pritzker, has entered the Hawaii housing market to buy a retirement home for the president and his family that will be available not in 2016, but in January 2013, according to a confidential source within Pritzker’s Chicago organization
Pritzker, a wealthy Chicago business executive and heiress to the Hyatt Hotels fortune, served as national finance chairman for Obama’s 2008 campaign and is the co-chairman of his 2012 effort.
Highly confidential internal polls conducted by the Obama campaign indicate Obama cannot win re-election, despite public surveys that show him in the lead.
“The public polls are mostly political,” the source argued. “Obama radicals want Romney supporters to feel discouraged and give up. Truth is that Romney’s winning.”
Obama is experiencing frustration in fundraising efforts, as wealthy donors who contributed generously to Obama in 2008 are not even returning phone calls.
Everything is for sale. Ambassadorships, government grants, stimulus money – you name it,
Obama’s have no intention of returning to Chicago when they leave the White House.
Obama presidential library and museum are slated for Hawaii.
A search for a developed property, suitable for occupancy four months from now, instead of property where a custom-designed estate might be built, is further indication that insiders believe Obama will not be re-elected.

The Obama campaign got a phone call from Gallup: It's over.

September 20, 2012

Romney 47%

Obama 47%

Obama is already half way to Hawaii for retirement !

First, you quoted an obvious hit piece that I find hard to take seriously. It sounds remarkably similar to the endless posts regarding the impending alien disclosure. Confidential source, secret preparations etc.

Second, the numbers. If they do have equal points now, does it mean Obama won't be re-elected? Seriously?

When I look at Gallup, I see that Obama's ratings have improved compared to earlier in the summer. How's that bad news for him?

Now, continue your wishful thinking...
