KING OF BAIN....Oh My Gawd!

Another thing that Obama supporters must consider is the amount of general dissatisfaction that the population has with the incumbent right now.

It isn't necessarily Obama, but just whomever happens to be in power right now. If you are an Obama supporter, the polls comparing Obama to Ron Paul should scare you to death. It is a virtual tie and Paul is considered the kooky fringe candidate by the majority of his own party. IMO, that is a huge indicator of the general advantage that the GOP candidate has this time.

Quite so. They can easily be portrayed as modern day robber barons. And however legal their activities may be, I don't think such characters are admired by the general (voting) public.

Paul is the only candidate who will take Obama voters from him,he is The GOP's only chance imo

Quote from Lucrum:

It'll be a problem as it relates to swing voters. His die hard sheeple supporters of course don't care about his record.

Many don't care much about his record because his record isn't bad.It could be better,but it isnt bad

Newt is also running Bain anti-Romney attacks ad on the radio. During the Rush time slot, no less. I do think Newt has gone all in here tho. He is done as candidate as far as the GOP is concerned, but then again, he has nothing to lose as they had already thrown him under the bus.

I don't think it will for numerous reasons which is why Obama is leading all GOP candidates and Obama and the media hasn't even started their full attack on Romney yet

Uggh no, Romney and Obama are actually tied.

Last I heard, about 60% of the country disagrees with that statement. he has the lowest approval and highest disapproval rating of any re-elected incumbent in history if I'm not mistaken.

Obama is beating Romney in 7 out of 9 polls.

Obama doesn't have a 60 % disapproval rating in any major polls.

Yep, latest poll just conducted yesterday has Romney with 22-point lead in Florida with almost all of that extra support coming from Newt. The ironic thing is that Newt will actually probably exceed expectations in South Carolina because of this and he will tell himself that it was the right strategy.
