Romney has no use for 47% of Americans

Whether or not the majority of America is supportive of the President remains to be seen.

Why do Republicans in Congress routinely poll 60 to 75% disapproval by the American people?

Go back and see Candidate Obama's record. He was quite clear about health care reform, GITMO and immigration. That he fulfilled those promises is a matter of record.

Actually the Republicans are spiraling downward on the Senate and the Dems are looking like they have a slight chance to recapture the House. Brown is losing in Mass, Wilson is losing in NM, Missouri which Reps thought they would pick up is going to McCaskill, ND, VA, Ohio are all trending to the Dems.

Just because the far right wingers do not get their way does not mean that the majority of America is not supportive of the President. Ramrodding radical legislation through the system? Really? His "agenda" was clear when he was nominated, his agenda re health care, GITMO and immigration were well known when the American public voted him and his agenda into the Presidency. America spoke, and America will reiterate their views when he is reelected this November.

The current extreme polarization of our nation tells me everything I need to know about Mr. Obama's leadership. We need a leader who can draw the nation together and heal it. Right now roughly half the nation stands on either side of several key issues. Good leaders find common ground and compromise. Mr. Obama has been totally unsuccessful in this effort. It's time for him to go so another can try. He has proven he cannot unite our country...he is a divider.

This statement, too, suggests that the liberal democrat is on the "right" side of every issue. Did it ever occur to you why those on the other side of some of these issues feel so strongly about them? Probably not. You and Mr. Obama are very much alike in that respect. It's your way or the highway right.

Sounds like great leadership to me. NOT! America today is a product of this mentality.

If America wants Obama out so badly, why isn't Romney running away with this election?

The posts of desperation will increase now that they realize how badly they are losing with an incompetent candidate.... Suddenly, "Not Obama" is not enough.

That's a fair question...which I think leads us back to the original comment Mr. Romney made. Your comment implies that Mr. Obama IS "running away" with the election. In the end the electoral college may show a somewhat lopsided outcome (maybe not) but in reality still about half of America will not be in support of many of Mr. Obama's programs.

Huffington Post and that ilk wants us to believe this one is in the bag. I'm not so sure. I think I will wait until we take that "poll" in Novermber. In the meantime I pray we make a new choice and that the new choice takes into account "the other half" of America.

Hope and change sounded good...but I see little hope for change under the current administration and fear our divided nation may fall apart under four more years of divisive leadership with Mr. Obama.

And I hope, that after Obama has won reelection, that the GOTP does the same thing it did when McCain lost. Opine that he wasn't "conservative enough," and try to go even further to the right. In 4 years, most of the teabagger influence is going to have exhausted itself out. All the constituencies that the GOTP ticked-off this time, (Hispanics, Women, Blacks, LGBT, Seniors, and the rest of the 47% that are NOT victims or freeloading off of Society), will realize that voting for someone even more extreme will result in even more extreme outcomes. More of the angry, old, white-guys will have disappeared from the voter rolls, more seniors who have paid into SS and Medicare will be even less amenable to having their benefits, that they've PAID FOR, cut...so the Righties can make the same lame argument that using those cuts to give more tax-cuts to millionaires and billionaires that will some how "trickle-down"...

I PRAY that's what they do... I hope they concentrate on a Santorum or Lyin-Ryan... (And I predict they will...) In 4 years after this debacle, the GOTP should be nearing extinction as a relevant force in American politics. The party of angry, old, white guys, with a religious agenda, is disappearing. And thank god for it.

I don't think we will see what America wants till Nov 7. If Obama is able to completely avoid any talk of his competance for leadership, and lack of any plan for the ecomony, and keep demonizing Romney, he will likely win. If anyone in the press puts the same eye on Obama as they do Romney, it will be close. People here, and in the mainstream media keep asking Romney for specifics, but they don't even make a sound towards Obama for the same thing. What is he going to do to revive the economy? Who knows.
