Voting For vs Voting Against
I’ll state right up front that I haven’t been watching the Democratic National Convention. However, I also didn’t watch much of the Republican National Convention, tuning in only to see who their “mystery speaker” was, so I’m being close to equal in ignoring the conventions.
However, from the coverage of the conventions, and from the political ads I’ve seen, I’m noticing a pattern. The GOP is running ads explaining both why voters should vote for Romney, as well as why they should not vote for Obama. On the other hand, the Democrats are running mostly ads explaining why they shouldn’t vote for Romney.
The Democrats’ 2012 Confusion
It wasn’t supposed to be this way. Obama, his loyal Democrats (what I call Obamacrats), and his elite experts had it all planned out in 2008. Lightbringer Obama would be elected, he’d spread the government money around, take over a large portion of the economy, and bow to foreign leaders to get them to like us again. His re-election in 2012 would be assured, as would a lefty-Democrat-led government for the foreseeable future, allowing America to become a socialist democracy like those in Europe.

In 1980 the economy was mired in stagflation, people were genuinely hurting, and our leader was clueless; even so, we were not facing, as today, national bankruptcy.
Romney Only Up By One In WaPo/ABC Poll — But The Poll Oversamples Democrats
Yet another example of a poll being skewed to make Obama look like he is doing better than he really is.
GOP Postponing Monday Convention Activities
Approaching Tropical Storm Isaac is forcing the GOP to postpone its Monday convention events, though the convention will be officially gaveled into session.
Univ. of Colo.: Election Factors Point To Romney Win
I’ll be honest, I’m not sure if I trust this study or not, but I figured I’d present it for what it’s worth.
Do Democrats Regret ObamaCare Yet?
If they don’t, there’s a number of reasons they should.
More Seniors Fear ObamaCare Than Ryan’s Medicare Plan
The headline and opening paragraphs of today’s Rasmussen Reports poll are interesting enough, but it’s what is revealed later in the story that’s the real news, as far as I’m concerned.
