Elections 2012

Did anyone realize just how many outright lies Obama has told us in the last 4 years, especially from Candidate Obama to President Obama! It's unbelievable. Someone must start a collection of them.

I remember watching an interview with Mitt Romney shortly after Obama took office, and the question posed to Romney was that seemingly Obama is doing a good job and following a similar agenda as yours being that he kept Guantanamo bay open, did not with draw the troops etc... Romney replied I support President Obama for keeping Guantanamo open, keeping the troops in Afghanistan etc. and EVERY other policy that JOHN MCCAIN was running on and then presidential hopeful Barack Obama completely disagreed with... That being said what do you have against Romney?

He's a flip-flopper, plain and simple. I know that's what the Dems are trying to paint him as... But there is truth to it. That's the one thing I dislike most in politics; the outright lies. whatever happened to taking a strong position and in the event you are wrong, saying "I'm sorry, I made a mistake!" To me President Bush's biggest quality was his straightforward manner. Just my feelings

Here's some support for my statement regarding Gingrich vs. Romney.

Check out Romney's quote... enough said imo.

Problem with Romney is that his support level has always hovered around 25%...seems like he has a base but can't snag anyone else.

I am starting to be more inclined to your opinion about Newt it seems he may have a chance.

Here is the only thing you need to know about that article “Speaking to The Jewish Channel…”. Newt is the “red meat king”. He will tell you what you want to hear.

Now, that the contest is basically between the two front-runners, Gingrich and Romney, we can be sure the ObamaCare issue will not come up in debates/commercials as expected. (both were once supporters of the basic idea)

Yes, but he is not going on Al-Jazeera and saying that he feels Israel is not a legitimate state (as a certain President basically did in Egypt.)

He may be catering to what they want to hear, but he still has to live with the ramification and expectations that comes along with that.

I missed that one.

There are none in politics.

Santorum win Oklahoma

[good sam]

Romney wins Vermont

Romney wins Massachusetts

[meshugener]

Everything as predicted, no surprises.

[meshugener]

Tennessee for Santo

[Dan]

OH is looking interesting with the urban centers (CAK/CLE/CMH/CVG) all leaning towards Romney and the rest of the state going for Santorum so far.

CNN is show Santo with a small lead, but I bet Romney still pulls it out:
Santorum
107,206
39%

Romney
101,203
36%

Gingrich
42,156
15%

Paul
23,562
8%

shame Santorum didn't do better 

[Dan]

shame Santorum didn't do better 

Personally I don't think he's that electable, even I like where he stand on some issues more than Romney.

[Side incomer]

shame Santorum didn't do better 

By now a small lead over Romney. I hope he'll end up making it, so he'd at least be considered an even winner with Romney at the end of the night.
The questions is if and how long Gingrich is about to stay in the race?

[Dan]

Without a doubt Newt is hurting Santorum by staying in the race even this long.

Santo is up by 12K now for the prize of the night, but still Cuyahoga County is always slow as usual in reporting

If I may ask, Dan, did you vote today?
