"Americans really wish they had elected Mitt Romney instead of Obama"
"Americans are so down on President Obama at the moment that, if they could do the 2012 election all over again, they'd overwhelmingly back the former Massachusetts governor's bid. That's just one finding in a brutal CNN poll, released Sunday, which shows Romney topping Obama in a re-election rematch by a whopping nine-point margin, 53 percent to 44 percent. That's an even larger spread than CNN found in November, when a survey had Romney winning a redo 49 percent to 45 percent."

I have the nasty feeling we'll eventually find out they did elect the Romster.
The media is getting ready to distance themselves from the Choom Gang when the crash(es) come. -

The truth, even if it is out there, will never be told. To do so would require that the 5th column admit that they are tools. Not going to happen.

The media will never abandon the left. They are the left.

Americans haven't been offered a limited government constitutionalist choice for president since Cal Coolidge. Which is to say we were all born into the obscenity of "progressive" governance and we'll all die under that regime.

Top comment misses that the redistribution policies in place have been moving money from the bottom 93% to the top 7%.

Say hello to the family dynasty power industrial complex. Kings and Queens will certainly be a preferable choice over any corporate business theocrogarct. Kings and Queens will certainly find us governable (malleable, pliable, bent over and ready for our serftitude and all with cheering crowds and clapping hands via Jon Stewart.) Family dynasty progressives with powerful backers in the corporate world and in the media Hollywood industrial complex are preferable to ordinary people with ordinary backgrounds. We don’t want representation by ordinary Americans. We want big boring government experience.
Ironically Romney had big government experience and that was a turn off. Obama is the cool outsider. Sure, Obama was/is steeped in radical leftwing Ronald Reagan hating politics and community organizing – but he is so CUTE. He is Lena Dunham's boyfriend! they did it and she was very satisfied. -

P.S. The corrupt party is the Rs, not the Ds. The Rs have defining principles. The Ds have never been anything other than a mob of emotionally unstable insecure nitwits being led about by incompetent lower middle management. The corrupt party has been posing as "not them" for decades, and getting away with it.

I find a party that passes legislation using loopholes on party line vote in the dead of night to be a tad corrupt.

Falling short of principle is the same thing as outright corruption? Acting like the mob is mere stupidity? Again - I don't follow.
We have people saying - oh you are so dumb if you voted for Romney. You are so dumb if you didn't. Mean time, the ultra left are making hay while the sun shines.
Are we ready for Hillary? -

Falling short of principle is one way of putting it, I suppose. Abandoning principle is another. I gave up on the Ds long ago; there is no integrity there to corrupt, just a dumb and brutish will to accrete and maintain power. Leading a mob to burn a witch (or, alternatively, make her queen) is no great intellectual feat. Emotions are cheap and easy. The illegal immigration debacle has served to show how far gone the Rs are.

The top few percent are getting richer as the rest languish, because both lifestyles have gotten much easier to pursue. Thanks to the expanding safety net which has become a hammock for many, staying relatively poor has become sustainable and even comfortable. Likewise getting and staying rich has also become easier for those who are sufficiently motivated, disciplined and who dive into risks and methodology required. Once you have it figured out, it's easy to keep doing it whether you choose the low road or the high road. Both roads are just getting deeper furrowed.

There will always be income inequality in a fair, dynamic and prosperous economic system - You have to start somewhere, and it's not the top or even the middle. The solution is getting rid of the barriers in between. Over-taxing and over-regulating the enterprises of the rich, simply wipes out the ladders they provide for getting from poor to better off. The rich are doing well, because they always do unless it's all out destruction across the board. The question is what environment allows the rest to succeed as well. People need to stop thinking of wealth or lack of it as the issue. It's opportunity you want long term. If taking away a piece of someone else's success is the plan, then you or your constituents will never become more than a beggars left with no tools.

You know who the public should be blaming instead for this shit show of a presidency? The media. They orchestrated getting this traitor elected. It's on them.

The blame (or the approval) goes directly to the electorate.
We get the government we deserve.
The majority of the electorate decided that redressing the grievance of "racism" trumped demanding competence. -

That's not how the electorate perceived it. I agree, but the electorate did not. -

Actually, ST, I think that's how everyone who voted for him thought.
What could go wrong, they thought? I shall quote bagoh20 --
...a guy who is half-white, raised in a privileged white family of bankers. He was educated in white schools where he was treated as some kind of golden child because he was "clean and articulate".
That's what a lot of voters thought. Most of the young voters thought that.
After years have passed, some are now thinking, that Obama is full of shit, and everything that he touches turns to shit. -

I'll bet Richard J Daley thought the truth about 1960 wouldn't, either. -

Yes Bagoh indeed. Comfortable mass poverty served up by a government who wants it that way.
Amartel - I gave up on the D's too. Long time ago. I was somewhat liberal in college.
and yes - the R's and the chamber of commerce are fools for assuming we are all OK with their lawlessness regarding our immigration laws. -
