I'm quite sure you are right, about there being a number of people who are happy to live off the government dole. I am also entirely convinced that it's nowhere near 47%.
For as smart as Romney is supposed to be, and as good a manager as he is supposed to have been, he is sure running a moronic and inept campaign thus far.

It's like Kerry, McCain, and Romney got together 15 years ago and made a wager on who could run the worst campaign ever. It's coming down to the wire.
What strikes me as kind of odd is that I see Mitt to be like the Republican answer to Kerry: he sees a situation that isn't quite working and seems to have an idea about how to fix it, but won't let us in. Which makes me think that neither really had/have a plan at all.
I'm really glad that Mitt won the primary though, because it gives us at least a few more months of Jason Sudeikis on SNL.

Hey, let's not leave Bush '00 out of this race. Strong, strong contender.
The top of the GOP ticket has been barren for most of our lifetimes.

What would you have him do Chum?
I am worried that he is not being an effective campaigner, but in his defense he is fighting a severe uphill battle to reach the electorate. He has to fight against free advertisements for the Democrats and BO 24/7 by their corrupt cheerleaders called the MSM which are out to destroy any Republican at any cost. Any gaffe or perceived gaffe by Romney and the Republicans are magnified and excoriated well beyond reason while any mention of the many of BO's shortcomings would nary be heard. No amount of money can overcome that disadvantage. He has to run an almost perfect campaign because the deck is stacked against him. There are some of us that don't care to watch the MSM and find ways to get our info from the internet or radio, but how much of the electorate is willing to do that? It seems to me that most still rely on the MSM for their info. I hope I am wrong.

lots of people kinda sound like boogar eating morons in this thread... but its ok, we as a society will just pat you on the back and blame the liberal medial industrial complex for your shortcomings. Go enjoy a welfare-supplied prime rib with some welfare 40 year old scotch, and call us in the morning.
