If anyone's interested in the facts, Fortune magazine dug into Romney's Solyndra speech: http://finance.fortune.cnn.com/2012/06/04/romney-wrong-on-solyndra-facts/?iid=HP_LN So, pure distortion and make-believe we've seen before, but I worry that his team is just incredibly sloppy. They referenced only a sloppy Newsweek article for their "facts" (sic.) Oh, and yeah... Fortune is soooo liberal.
The thickness of the mud and the distortions on both sides of the race will be nothing short of epic. We have already seen it from the Obama camp and we may now be seeing it from the Romney camp. As in horse racing, on a rainy day the best mudder wins. This race won't be pretty but it will be petty.
Please educate yourself STUDY: In Presidential Campaign, Romney And Allies Running Far More Negative Ads Than Obama More than 63,000 general election ads were aired nationwide between April 10 and May 24, with just over half of them positive. But if you break down those numbers by party affiliation, the numbers tell another story. Democratic presidential advertisers, led by the Obama campaign itself, aired more than 25,000 positive ads compared to just 10,844 negative ones, good for a 70% positive ad rate. Meanwhile, Republican advertisers — the largest of which have been outside groups like Karl Rove’s Crossroads GPS — have released just 7,584 positive ads compared to more than 20,000 negative ones. A 27% positive rate
Does anyone know what the historical rates for negativity are? I assume the challenger is basically always more negative in a campaign than the incumbent. I wonder how much more.
See, I read it, but in my head I hear: "This year the incumbent will win in a landslide running on his record." Oppositetexx!~
Jobs are being created, not lost Your taxes are lower under Obama than under Bush Wall Street is soaring Americans are covered with a new Healthcare law Osama is dead 4 More Years
Have you been asleep the past month? The stock market is plummeting, and the jobs report on Friday was atrocious.
Hey texxx! Yes or No question. real simple. Did my post put the lie to your premise that Obama has "nothing positive to run on"?
not in the least. SEALs killed Obama, yet barry shamelessly tried to steal political credit The stock market is plummeting jobs report on Friday was truly a national embarrassment and humiliating for Obama Healthcare law is unpopular and could get struck down by the SCOTUS all your points were crap
Probably because it is getting declared unconstitutional. tell me more about how every poll is like 10 points off......
